These days, terror attacks are barely a blip.
Granted, we haven't seen anything on the scale of 9/11 -- but look at domestic/international terror attacks in the last 5-10 years, and then check the Market over those 3-5 days. Gradually, the attitude seems to be "Eh, whatever. Six people died, but billions of people are still buying TVs, phones, fried chicken, and Starbucks. Life goes on, and people are still spending money."
You're right, you can't predict terror attacks -- but you also can't predict natural disasters, and I don't think anybody is saying "Oh no, sell 50% of your stocks. There might be an earthquake in 2019!"
