Bull (positive) markets are substantially larger and longer than Bear (negative) markets. The average bull market has lasted a total of 6 years and had a return of 279% during those periods. On the other hand, the average bear market has only lasted just over a year and only gone down 33%. Although it may feel like a down market lasts forever, history shows us that most of the time the market is on the rise, helping us increase our overall wealth.
