Bull or bear?

I’ve been trying to follow the markets more recently, but work has been taking up a lot of my time. I made sure to carve out some time today to catch-up and do some reading about this recent tech rally and the “bull market”.

It’s been interesting to say the least. I can’t imagine there has been a more confusion market ever in our history. Longest bull market in history runs right into a global pandemic which created the fastest drop in history which led to the fastest rebound in history which led to this bull market.

There’s so many sitting on the sidelines right now kicking themselves for not dabbling more. Myself included. But with record unemployment and the economy still largely shut down, it’s hard not to be a bearish.

Right now, we’re seeing a V-shaped recovery. I don’t know if that turns into a W or not. My bet, like many, is that we’ll likely see another spike in COVID-19 cases/deaths and likely another shutdown to contain everything.

It’ll be an interesting few months ahead.
