The Bulls A bull market is when everything in the economy is

great, people are finding jobs, gross domestic product (GDP) is growing, and stocks are rising. Things are just plain rosy! Picking stocks during a bull market is easier because everything is going up. Bull markets cannot last forever though, and sometimes they can

lead to dangerous situations if stocks become overvalued. If a person is optimistic and believes that

stocks will go up, he or she is called a "bull" and is said to have a "bullish outlook".

The Bears A bear market is when the economy is

bad, recession is looming and stock prices are falling. Bear markets make it

tough for investors to pick profitable stocks. One solution to this is to make money when stocks are falling using a

technique called short selling. Another strategy is to wait on the sidelines until you feel that the bear market is nearing

its end, only starting to buy in anticipation of a bull market. If a person is pessimistic, believing that stocks are

going to drop, he or she is called a "bear" and said to have a "bearish

outlook".
