So far, 2016 is pretty good, but there aren't any clear signs of a real rally still.
Price hasn't broken the ATH, but I wouldn't say that we're still in a bear market. IMO, we have been back in an up-trending bull market since after the first half of 2015...
Potential B waves. But you are still not wrong, if potential B waves there is, that could be seen as a short term bull market in a bigger bear market.
PS: cheers for the masterluc historical post, sums up everything pretty well on EW.
