Even more important to not make decisions on this. Time in the market IS greater than timing and you are gambling if you are trying to time anything right now.

Having said that, if you near term need the cash it could be a rational decision. If this is the case I question your initial investment decision of having this cash in the market in the first place.
This is my thoughts as well, I’m a year and a half from selling my investments and utilizing that cash. A nice big dip in the markets like this means buy buy buy for me. With a year and a half to go before needing it I am of the belief that things will normalize again.
