Bear Market

The term bear market – or baisse in French – originated in the stock market. However, it is used to the same extent in the crypto market. Constantly falling prices are evident in a bear market.

In addition, investors are significantly more pessimistic than in the opposite phase (bull market). In this case, the investor is referred to as a bear. According to previous findings, however, bear markets do not last as long as bull markets. During a bear market, we also speak of a bearish market phase.
