But of course, it's always different strokes for different folks. What makes meaning to one may not make to another. There are investors who get scared off by the experiences of the bear season while others firm up and learn from it. For me, I think the bear season is more didactic than the bull which is fraught with a hell of noise, excitement and merriment. If one doesn't learn a thing or two during a bear season, then one isn't observant and isn't likely to profit on the long run from this industry. The current bear run is affording many investors an opportunity to get onboard while there's still time for it.
