Market Sentiment And Trends
I had the opportunity to share my thoughts on market sentiment during an interview on Fox Business News. The question was, “How long will this bull market last?” My answer: around eight years.
Bull markets are exciting for traders. They offer much easier opportunities for day trading and short-term strategies because of the inherent upward bias in U.S. equity markets. This bias is driven by institutional buyers, like insurance companies and pension funds, who are perpetually adding to their positions.
However, corrections are inevitable, even in a strong bull market. Traders often get caught buying dips at 2%, 5%, or even 10% corrections, only to see the market drop further. That’s why understanding risk management and market cycles is so crucial.
