Stock market performance after bear markets

As this chart of the S&P 500® Index illustrates, after the selling pressure of a bear market finally hits a bottom, stocks have a strong historical record of bouncing back in the subsequent months and years.

Longer-term investors should keep in mind that a diversified mix of stocks, bonds, alternatives and cash can earn their keep in stressful market environments, potentially performing better than the S&P 500 Index and other major indices.

Bear markets defined by a drop of 20% or more from market peak to market trough based on S&P 500 Total Return Index.

Index must have recovered completely (closed above previous peak) before a new bear market can begin. 

Past performance is not a guarantee of future results.
