The low of our current bear market decline was last month; September 30th with a Dow Jones’ Bear Eyes View (BEV) of -21.94%. For the Dow Jones, a BEV of -21.94%, or a 21.94% decline from a bull market’s all-time high isn’t much of a bear...
Here’s a Dow Jones BEV chart going back to 1885. A Bear’s Eye View (BEV) chart displays the Dow Jones in terms of new all-time highs (0.0% / BEV Zero) and percentage claw-backs on those days the Dow Jones came short of making a new all-...
