Making Money Minute with Ron Hiebert - Long Term Market Cycles
Investors need to understand that stock markets move in extended cycles. Long term bull markets tend to last 15 - 20 years. Long term bear markets run 8 to 15 years. The bull market we are currently in, started in 2013 and is still going. The previous bear market, started in 2000 and ran for 13 years. Within these long bull and bear cycles, markets typically experience shorter term ups and downs, which investors try to trade profitably. However, most investors make money playing the long term trends and don’t do so well trying to catch the shorter term movements.
