    A 1.5 percent drop over 1 week is just noise.  It's entirely normal.  And would have happened hundreds of times to you already if you've been invested for decades.

    Is it only me whose pension pot has dropped about 1.5% this week 
    In a week when markets were down, then probably not.  However, who cares about 1.5% movesments over a week.   You can see that sort of movement in minutes, let alone a week.

    it seems to me no one knows what’s round the corner anymore 
    Has there been any point in the last 300 years of conventional investing where thay has ever been the case?
