While the last 3 trading days have tested the markets and investorsโ jitters, the vast majority of Vanguard self-directed US retail clients stayed invested (93%).
Of those who did trade, the overwhelming majority bought into equities (5:1 ratio of net buyers vs sellers of equities).

This 401(k) fix could help workers save $300,000 more, so whatโs the holdup?
Vanguard has identified a problem โ and a solution.
The last time you changed jobs, did you keep up the same contribution rate to your 401k? If not, this fix is for youโฆ but itโs not necessarily coming to your plan soon. Hereโs why, explained by @fiona-greig.bsky.social of Vanguard.

Employers can make this happen today by asking workers about their prior savings rate and nudging them to elect that if itโs higher than the default.
Whatโs more tricky is defaulting people into a rate=max{prior,default}. This may require policy change and definitely data on prior saving rate.
