Extremely concerned about the Fed's rate hike

Hey guys, I'm growing extremely concerned that the Feds certainly will hike rate this year. Back in 2022, I didn't understand why stock markets were so bad. It was mostly because the Fed hiked rate too much in a year. Now Kevin Warsh's hawkish stance on inflation makes me feel so uneasy. If they hike rate 2 or 3 times this year, that would certainly destroy this bull market. What do you think? Are you fully invested? Or keep cash ? I think I'll aggressively trim my accounts in July. submitted by
