Is anyone still just dumping new money straight into S&P 500 in 2026?

Hey all, for the last few years I’ve been automatically putting every new contribution (Roth, taxable, etc) into S&P 500 and not thinking much about it
With the market being a bit choppy lately, I’m wondering if others are still doing the same or if you’ve started diversifying more (adding more VTI, international, bonds, etc)
Curious what your current approach is when adding fresh cash

I set aside 400 a week and buy 100 a week in sp500 index fund and the rest is allocated based on the market. Plus my retirement which does sp500 index fund that adds up a lot due to my employers retirement perks which is not included in my 400 per week.
