WSJ article w/graphics illustrate how long S&P bear markets tend to last & where market hits are coming from : stocks


This WJ article (free link) is somewhat bullish in that it leads with a financial advisor telling his clients to stay invested.

In the middle of the article there are some good graphics that help illustrate how long S&P bear markets tend to last, like this very nice graphic here.

There’s another great graphic here that helps show how much of the S&P losses are coming from a few mega cap stocks that make up much of its value. These are the stocks that I’m referring to when I say some stocks are “dragging down the indexes as they deflate”, because of how much weight they have in broad market indexes.

The article winds up with some active investors who have made/are making bank or preserving their assets by cashing out. So while the article is overall bullish by leading with advice to stay in, it also covers some investors who are off on their own agenda.


Not advocating for a bull or bear stance. IMO investors should take in information and understand both sides of a trade.
