The Long, Docile Bear
Is the bear market over?
If that's your question, you need to specify. Which bear market? Because there were several last year, and I'm not sure any of them are well and truly over.
As much fun as it is to focus on equities (mostly because commenting on stocks doesn't require much in the way of expertise, effort or imagination, which explains why everyone's "first asset" is usually stocks), last year was primarily a rates story, and so far anyway, so is this year.
The front-end volatility wit
Thank you for your 24 February 2022 comment. Many still don’t get that.
Sell in May and go away. I think we chop sideways for the next couple of weeks and then…October lows will be retested.
Then…wht wait for May?
Why wait, that should be!
