With nearly 10 months of 2026 in the books, it's fair to say that this year hasn't been easy for equity investors, but they've been rewarded for taking risks. The Nasdaq-100 and S&P 500 (SNPINDEX: ^GSPC) are up 14.6% and 11.7%, respectively, year to date, confirming market participants are being compensated for enduring equity market turbulence. Those data points also confirm that broader indexes aren't in corrections, let alone bear markets. Still, bear markets and deep pullbacks are facts of investing life. Rather than timing the market, which is a tall, often fruitless order, smart investors use sell-offs as opportunities to build shopping lists or add to existing positions that may have been overly punished. This Vanguard sector has a history of bouncing back following sell-offs. Image source: Getty Images.
