++SOUNDBITE PARTIALLY COVERED++
"As the ripple effects of Trump’s tariffs continue to take place, you might be hearing terms unfamiliar to you about the financial markets. For example, a bear market. A bear market refers to when the S&P 500 or the Dow Jones Industrial Average falls 20% or more from a sustained high. It’s called a bear market because bears hibernate and the market is in retreat. A bull market, on the other hand, refers when the market is increasing because bulls charge. A dead cat bounce is when the market rebounds briefly after a fall. It’s called a dead cat bounce because it comes from the idea that even a dead cat will bounce if it falls from a great enough height. Capitulation refers to the point at which investors will sell out of fear because they no longer believe that they can recoup their losses. Capitulation often coincides with the bottom of the market, but it’s impossible to tell, except in retrospect. Prior to the announcement of Trump’s tariffs, there were many predictions of a possible U.S. recession. A recession refers to a time when unemployment rises and the economy contracts. Economists use different indicators to determine if we’re in a recession, including hiring, retail spending, income levels, and more. Buy the dip refers to the idea of buying into the market after a downturn at a discount. Retail investors use the phrase often. Unfortunately, it’s difficult to time the market and to know when a dip will end, where the bottom of a market is, or when a recovery will take place."

STORYLINE:
Bulls, bears and dead cats are lurking in the background of President Donald Trump’s trade war.
As the effects of the administration’s latest tariffs unfold, news consumers may confront unfamiliar terms related to investments or financial markets.
A bear market is a term used by Wall Street when an index such as the S&P 500 or the Dow Jones Industrial Average has fallen 20% or more from a recent high for a sustained period of time.
Why use a bear to refer to a market slump? Bears hibernate, so they represent a stock market in retreat. In contrast, Wall Street’s nickname for a surging market is a bull market, because bulls charge.
When stocks rebound briefly in a moment of free fall or uncertainty, it’s known as a “dead cat bounce."
That’s from the notion that even a dead cat will bounce when it falls from a great enough height. The market recovery tends to be temporary and brief, and the downturn tends to resume.
