If a Bear Market Is Coming, History Says Investors Who Do This 1 Thing Always Win Out
Whether today, next year, or in the future, there's one thing to do for maximum benefit.
Overview
As the market gets closer to ending its fourth year of double-digit gains, it's hard to imagine a bear market on the horizon. And it may not be coming just yet; the record for consecutive annual market gains is eight years in the 1980s.
If the year ends on a high note, though, it would be the first time since the 1990s that the S&P 500 (SNPINDEX: ^GSPC) gains by a double-digit percentage for four years in a row.
