Bull Market

A bull market is a period when share prices are rising over time.

Quick reference:

Symbol: a bull. Meaning: Prices trending higher. Mood: Optimistic.

Expanded explanation:

In a bull market, prices move upward for weeks, months or even years. Investors feel confident, companies perform well, and demand for shares is strong. This creates a cycle of rising prices and positive sentiment.

Bull markets don’t last forever, but they generally are the periods when long-term investors build wealth. The opposite is a bear market, when prices are falling.
