Funny enough, I finished front-loading my 2018 401k last fall, right before the big dip. It kinda made me sad to see, and it's ever so close to full recovery now, but I still wouldn't say it was the wrong thing to do, especially since nobody knows the future. What is cool is the fact that I maxed out my 401k last year, and that means a lot more to me than timing the market. I handled it well and I feel that is good proof that I'm doing things right :). Any day now it could be higher again. I'm not worried about it, my savings rate is doing all the heavy lifting anyway
