The Data Is Clear: Investors Who Make This 1 Move During Bear Markets Always Come Out Ahead
It's easier said than done, but investors who do it don't generally regret it.
Overview
Investors have been spoiled over the past few years. The S&P 500 (SNPINDEX: ^GSPC) has nearly doubled since the start of 2023, including three consecutive years of double-digit percentage returns. It's up 12% year to date, so if the momentum continues, we could be in for a fourth consecutive year, something that hasn't happened since 1995 to 1999.
The elephant in the room, however, is investors wondering when they can expect the run to stop and a bear market to happen. We can't predict how the stock market will behave, but considering how stock market cycles work, it's a matter of when, not if, a bear market happens.

Whenever that time comes, investors who stay the course always come out on top.
