Hmm, let me see why my crystal ball says.

A lot would depend on what state you are in. In a higher tax state SPAXX probably has a higher return

An ETF like SGOV may be another good option

Lot of fear in the market right now (understandably so). The situation in Ukraine is awful and the potential consequences are scary to think about.

There are some who want to sell in fear of their investments falling further. Do not do this. Hold and continue to buy more. Continue your 401k contributions, and add whatever you can afford after every paycheck into your brokerage. Those who sold the covid crash were often late buying back in.

This is the dip you're worried about.
