Bear markets occur when a market experiences prolonged price declines. The amount of time and percentage of the downfall varies, but typically is a month or longer with a decline nearing 20%.

These market conditions bring forth many obstacles for investors as herd mentality and fear can open up prolonged periods where asset prices seem to endlessly head into the red. There are several factors behind the trigger for bear markets, including economic reasons, political issues, as well as market-related news, and each that influence the length and severity of the downtrend in the market.

With market conditions collapsing on a bear market, investor sentiment is typically rather negative but this is not necessarily always the case.
