Just take confidence that over time the trend is upwards. There will always be bumps in the road - Covid, Ukraine, Suez Canal blockage, an so on. Take your eyes away from the detail for a while is my advice.I can't even look at my pension fund. There must be a better way of doing it. The amount of contributions I have made over the last year to try and bolster what I have and see it decimated makes me hate the system and Trump even more.

That's what I always think, but this is a major change that nobody has seen since the 1930s, plus the biggest global player is now unreliable and run by madmen. The last time led to a worldwide depression. My advice is to get into gold. But not now. Unfortunately my advice is 6 months too late, and I am not licenced to give advice, which is just as well.We saw it with Covid. It’s a case of not panicking, sitting tight and riding out the storm.
I get the tax break suggestion but I will get that tax break if I double up when this should settle down. I will still pay in this month just have to decide how much. The work one will continue as is - too much hassle to change personal contributions on that one.You will lose some of the tax break benefit. It comes down to whether you think the tax break benefit is more or less than the stock value.
FWIW I’m not touching mine. The rebound from Covid was quicker than I anticipated and that was an uncertain future.

It’s a massive sea of red.Dow down 11% in just a few weeks, 7% alone since the wanker dribbled his idiocy on Wednesday. FTSE down 4% today. Insurance companies and pension funds will be watching screens pretty nervously over the next week.
