How Worried Should You Be About a Bear Market?
To say that the first four months of 2022 have been turbulent from an investing standpoint would be an understatement. Stocks have been volatile since January, and many portfolios are down significantly year to date.
But while it's never fun to losses in the range of 10% to 15%, some investors are growing increasingly concerned over a full-fledged, prolonged bear market. That's when stocks fall 20% or more from a recent high.
Bear markets can be tough to endure and harder to recover from than stock market downturns that are more modest. But if you make these moves, you won't have to sweat a bear market at all.
