Bear Market Rallies Shake Out Weak Hands!

The title says it all, but at the end of the day (or more accurately, at the end of the week and a half -on average), they are still just bear market rallies).

We have identified 5 bear market rallies based on 3-day, 5-day, 7-day and 10-day cumulative return. On an average bear market rallies last for 9 days with an average gain of 16% from trough-to-peak.This most recent bear rally run has been the most violent, and the largest single move in the history of the markets. That means that it is a possibility the bear market is over - not! I have run multiple scenario analyses, though, just to be sure.
