It should never feel good when you are buying because there is panic everywhere. Take a deep breath. This is why you steadily raise cash during optimistic periods and buy during panic selling.

Remember from a view 30,000 feet above that while it is important to maintain liquidity to have the ability to purchase assets when they go on sale, the actual value of that paper liquidity is zero.

Currencies have no intrinsic value. They are backed by nothing. Bonds are worse - they are a promise to pay back a currency in the future.

Take a deep breath. Buy. And hope for prices to fall lower so you can rid yourself of more cash.
