That's the way I've been looking at it...only down 2.81%, that's not too bad

At least I saved $2000 open toward my 2019 Roth. I have until April 15 to max out the contribution. At current trend I'll wait until the last minute

I know this is callous, but if you're under 50 or so any crash is great news for your retirement.
