Strategies for a bear market which last on average 9.6 months, but this one may last more than 2 years
@doctorpot1
There have been 15 bear markets since April 1947. The average length of bear market is 11 month, but it range from as short as one month to as long as 2.5 years. So bear market is very common and nothing to fear about, if you know what you are doing. The worse drop in a bear market was a 56.8% drop in the S&P 500 index. The mildest was a decline of 19.3%.

Changes in BTC Outlook
@SpyderCall
The very long term charts are still looking bullish but if BTC keeps dropping then the long term trend will be flat or even down and that has only happened to bitcoin a few times in its existance. If you are a contrarian trader then you are probably very excited because you know the bounce back up will be massive similar to the other times that cryptocurrencies have melted down. Personally I am Bullish on BTC for the very very long term. The lower it goes then the better the buying oportunity in my opinion. Just make the purchases small and average down if you believe in BTC.

S&P 500 officially enters bear market, Beat or Run?
@Milk The Cow
I won't say that what I used to judge it is that accurate as they seem to be slightly faster than how the stock market react. If not, I won't get 💩attacked by other ignorance investors.

1. The war : its very cleared to me that a recession will come since it started. It's further confirmed when those sanctions hit hard on Russia 🇷🇺. Last but not least, if u have not noticed, the war has lasted 3months+ already . Yes, previous I'd over-estimated Putin... (bullish view on market) I didn't expected him to really start a war...(He may be the stupidest person in the world if he can't win the war...)
2. The inflation rate : is high & FED keeps trying to calm investors down by giving false hope. &, now it proved that I was right ✅️. The inflation is still not under control. This is also clear to me that it will be difficult as the real cause of inflation is the war.
3. Interest rate hike : Will continue until inflation is under control. Company's growth is limited & hence stock price will likely to plunge too. (It's already good enough if the company is not making losses...)
4. The inverse bond yield : I'm not really sure myself but the pro said so = evidence of fact.
5. Possible recession : Has yet to confirm but the chance of happening is so high, duh ?
If u know what recession mean, then u will know how negative I viewed on the current market now...

@DreamOfStuff
Based on all on technical factors, it is not looking too positive. However, the arbitrary and subjective thoughts below beg to differ.

Thoughts:
- We have not hit the level of 2020 global shut down.
- We have more money in the markets than ever before (retail & funds).
- We have a supply chain that will only get stronger (sans another COVID lockdown).
- We have had since Nov. of last year to start thinking U.S. supply chain and infrastructure need updates.
- We may have strange politics, but businesses do want they want and when they want regardless.
- Money Printing has slowed down (sans War Fund).
- Historical references is not as valid due to technology differences.
- Lastly, we are exposing corruption and manipulation of markets on the daily.
Overall, be positive folks!

S&P 500
@cola1010
Yes, Wall Street opened the week with heavy losses that put the benchmark S&P 500 at a level considered at bear market.
So how to beat the bear market? Please be sure to have enough stable assets available so do not need to sell during a bear market (too wasted)!!
Maybe an opportunity to buy stocks at lower price but few considerations in mind:
- Assess risk tolerance
- Don't cash it all in, too risky!
- Don’t try to time the market

Beat the bear market

Recession is a good chance to double your fortune.
When recession happened, manufactures, industries, commerce, and consumption are down, in another words, supply and demand shrunk. At this result, the price of commodities and products went down, even the businesses would go bankruptcy. In this situation, if you have a lot of money, as a lot of as millions of dollars is just some small money, you can purchase the low price of commodities and products, even the bankruptcy businesses. Because of the recession, the economy still went down, the market of value of the commodities and the possessions kept going down; your money was being burned. But this in your expectation. The lost may keep going for one to years. Recession will be gone, that is the nature of economy. When the economy rises, the price of the commodities and possessions you stored will rise, and even rise doublely. Then you sell your commodities and possessions for profits.
That is why beat the bear market.
