Bears vs Bulls - Navigating Volatile Markets

Bull and Bears in the stock market -  when it's Bull 📈 it's all green for investors, but when Bears fight back, the RED charts dominate 📉.

What is the difference? 🤔

When the stock market moves at an upward trend, this is referred to as the Bull market and when the market moves on a downward trend, it’s a Bear market.

What can investors do to navigate these markets?

  • A saying successful investors use a lot when investing is, “It's not about timing the market but spending time in the market”.

  • "Buying Fear and Selling Greed" - consistency is one of the fundamental principles that may continue to strive in helping many investors achieve their personal financial goals.

  • “You're only at a loss when you sell”- would you be willing to sell what you bought at a lower price? When markets are in turmoil, negative in a portfolio is only a loss when you sell at the present value. During uncertain times, review your portfolio and investing strategy for the long-term.
