The true definition of a bear mkt is time and price . 2020 was nothing more than a correction in a still ongoing 12 1/2 yr bull mkt . It’s impossible with inlimited money printing to have a true bear mkt of time . Time is 8 months to 2 yrs . The question is how long can asset price rises keep ahead of inflation ? 95% of your day trading must be on the long side to succeed over time .
