S&P 500 is barely down (~9% as of this post) after returning 23% and 24% respectively in 2023 and 2024. I wouldn't call it ugly, as someone who lived through recession.

A major correction also isn't that surprising. I started planning for it six months ago. The current market behavior is what I'd call "in model". It can always get much worse but this isn't that.

As the adage goes, time in market beats timing the market.

A correction has a specific meaning (drop of >10%). We aren't there yet with regards to the SP500. I think it would be more accurate to call this above average volatility.

Agreed, this seemed inevitable. And as a bull, I don't even think we're close to the bottom for the year
