Right now I am pretty much all-in on the market (as I was during all of my working career). In retirement, I set up 3 years worth of expenses in a CD ladder (and can extend to 4 if I use my dividends). This will allow me to ride out most of the normal downturns. Political events are always short lived... remember Russia/Ukraine was only a 3 month market downturn and that probably has more ramifications that the Middle East.

Over the long term, a stocks fundamentals will come thru. It is just important to know why you own the stock and when that thesis no longer holds (i.e. price target met or facts change). Stock price at any given time is impacted by a lot of factors but over time, it is the stock fundamentals that matter. Buffet's voting machine vs weighing machine quote.
