I think it really depends on your age: if you’re retired or soon to be, the short term hiccups in the stock market can have a real impact on your finances and should spur cautious buying. As the markets have been on a pretty straight upward trajectory over the past 30+ years, most of us can deal with these (hopefully) temporary fluctuations. However, this is all based on your income obviously.
For me personally, I’d welcome a hit in card values so as to allow me to buy some big cards at a discount.
