The markets have been in what one can deem a bear or at least a bearish market, which it hasn’t seen in a decade at least.

There have been bearish periods of time within a year, such as when COVD was at its initial onset concern, but the markets proved resilient enough to bounce back and climb higher.

Not so resilient this year.

Year-to-Date the Dow Jones Industrial Average is down 9.6%.  The NASDAQ is down 32.58% and the S&P 500 is down 19.82%.

Though the equities markets are up off their October lows, the recent rollover has the chance to retrace to those October lows and from there even lower.

Should, however, the markets find buying support and a price or Fibonacci retracement zone support that bearishness may not come about.
