2. Bear market
A bear market is also called a short market, a market in which prices are falling. When some investors began to panic, they sold their holdings and stayed on the sidelines with short positions. At this time, the short side dominates the market, and the long (optimistic about the market outlook) atmosphere is seriously insufficient, which is generally called a short market. In the securities market, it means that the overall operating trend is downward. Although there are rebounds during the period, each wave is lower than the previous wave.
In such a market, the vast majority of people lose money. Of course, there are also opportunities in the short market, but opportunities are fleeting and difficult to capture. It is especially difficult to operate in the short market.
