If this year's market can't usher in a better turnaround, then I think the bear market will continue. If there aren't many products that attract investors, then the bear market may last until next year!
No one will be able to determine when the bear market will end since the price is based on supply and demand and the best way for you to earn profit is to conduct your own research to determine the next price stamp in the market statistics.
Bear market is even favorable for new investors to buy on low price so as to use less money to get it as well as they can make large collection that will pay off the most in bull market. Always think for benefit and focus on it so that you will never face with any kind of difficulties or useless discussions as well to get rid of complications. Now if you have invested then have patience and wait for the bull market to appear.
