We are over two months into 2026, and the stock market has hardly changed from where it started the year. The Nasdaq is down. The S&P is flat. Tech stocks — the same names that carried the entire market in 2023, 2024, and 2025 — are getting hit hard. Nvidia is down. Microsoft is down. Meta is down. And the financial sector, which was supposed to be a bright spot, recently took a nose dive. You have to be asking yourself, how do I make sense of all the noise?
So today, I want to talk with you about what is actually going on. What’s really driving this? Is the fear rational? And most importantly — what should a disciplined, long-term investor actually be doing right now?
