Here's What History Shows","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2245953214","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"A look back can help you plan your next move.","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>Officially, we are in a bear market -- that's when stocks close 20% lower than their most recent highs. The question on every investor's mind: How long will this bear market last?</p><p>No <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE.U\">one</a> really knows the answer. Sure, pundits will try to predict (or guess), but those predictions will cover every outcome possible, from a quick, painless recovery to an extended downturn, the likes of which we've never seen.</p><p>A look backwards, though, tells us this bear market will likely fall between those two extremes.</p><h2>What history says about bear markets</h2><p>Since 1950, the <b>S&P 500 </b>has dropped more than 20% on 11 occasions. Below are some interesting data points on those pullbacks, according to a new report from Yardeni Research (PDF).</p><ul><li>The early 2000s bear market took <b>929 days</b> to reach its lowest point. That's about two and a half years. This bear market occurred after the amazing rise of internet stocks in the late-1990s.</li><li>The second-longest bear market started in 1973 and took <b>630 days</b> to hit bottom. Contributing factors to the downturn were inflation, slow economic growth, and political turmoil surrounding U.S. President Nixon.</li><li>The early 80's bear market lingered for <b>622 days</b> before stocks started rising again. Inflation had a role here too. The Fed took an aggressive stance against rising prices by raising the federal funds rate to an eye-popping 20%. A recession and high unemployment followed.</li><li>History's shortest bear market was the 2020 downturn, prompted by pandemic-related shutdowns and uncertainty. Stock prices fell for only <b>33 days</b> before returning to growth.</li><li>On average, not including this current cycle, bear markets last <b>388 days</b> -- or just over one year.</li><li>Excluding the longest and shortest bear markets of 2000 and 2020, respectively, the average bear market duration is almost exactly <b>one year</b>.</li><li>Since 2000, there have been only three bear markets not including this one. <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/TWOA.U\">Two</a> of the three have lasted longer than the one-year average.</li></ul><h2>Investing in a bear market</h2><p>Perhaps the most useful takeaway history provides is that bear markets have always given way to bull markets. If you can avoid selling out of your holdings, or even better, investing throughout the downturn, you'll be positioned for strong gains on the other side.</p><p>Admittedly, continuing to invest in a bear market is emotionally challenging, but you can make small changes to your investment approach to make it easier. For example:</p><ul><li>If you're light on cash savings, you might increase your emergency fund deposits temporarily. An extra liquidity cushion can help you avoid reaching into your portfolio when share prices are down.</li><li>You might lean into dividend stocks more than you have in the past. Whether you reinvest your dividends or take them in cash, you'll appreciate the stability in the throes of a bear market.</li><li>You might rethink your risk tolerance. Except for blips in 2018 and 2020, the market has been strong for years. In bull markets, it's tough to guage how much risk you can handle -- now's the time to ask that question. If you're invested more aggressively than you'd like, you can balance that risk incrementally by adding more conservative, blue-chip positions.</li></ul><h2>This bear market, too, shall pass</h2><p>Bear markets are always uncomfortable for investors. Fortunately, as proven by history, they're also temporary. You and your wealth can survive this cycle -- often without changing your investment approach at all.</p><p>If you are compelled to make changes, do so incrementally.

The question on every investor's mind: How long will this bear market last?No one really knows the answer. Sure, pundits will try to predict (or guess), but those predictions will cover every outcome possible, from a quick, painless recovery to an extended downturn, the likes of which we've never seen.A look backwards, though, tells us this bear market will likely fall between those two extremes.What history says about bear marketsSince 1950, the S&P 500 has dropped more than 20% on 11 occasions. Below are some interesting data points on those pullbacks, according to a new report from Yardeni Research (PDF).The early 2000s bear market took 929 days to reach its lowest point. That's about two and a half years. This bear market occurred after the amazing rise of internet stocks in the late-1990s.The second-longest bear market started in 1973 and took 630 days to hit bottom. Contributing factors to the downturn were inflation, slow economic growth, and political turmoil surrounding U.S. President Nixon.The early 80's bear market lingered for 622 days before stocks started rising again. Inflation had a role here too. The Fed took an aggressive stance against rising prices by raising the federal funds rate to an eye-popping 20%. A recession and high unemployment followed.History's shortest bear market was the 2020 downturn, prompted by pandemic-related shutdowns and uncertainty. Stock prices fell for only 33 days before returning to growth.On average, not including this current cycle, bear markets last 388 days -- or just over one year.Excluding the longest and shortest bear markets of 2000 and 2020, respectively, the average bear market duration is almost exactly one year.Since 2000, there have been only three bear markets not including this one. Two of the three have lasted longer than the one-year average.Investing in a bear marketPerhaps the most useful takeaway history provides is that bear markets have always given way to bull markets. If you can avoid selling out of your holdings, or even better, investing throughout the downturn, you'll be positioned for strong gains on the other side.Admittedly, continuing to invest in a bear market is emotionally challenging, but you can make small changes to your investment approach to make it easier. For example:If you're light on cash savings, you might increase your emergency fund deposits temporarily. An extra liquidity cushion can help you avoid reaching into your portfolio when share prices are down.You might lean into dividend stocks more than you have in the past. Whether you reinvest your dividends or take them in cash, you'll appreciate the stability in the throes of a bear market.You might rethink your risk tolerance. Except for blips in 2018 and 2020, the market has been strong for years. In bull markets, it's tough to guage how much risk you can handle -- now's the time to ask that question. If you're invested more aggressively than you'd like, you can balance that risk incrementally by adding more conservative, blue-chip positions.This bear market, too, shall passBear markets are always uncomfortable for investors. Fortunately, as proven by history, they're also temporary. You and your wealth can survive this cycle -- often without changing your investment approach at all.If you are compelled to make changes, do so incrementally. Avoid panic selling and major reallocations if you can. Patience will pay off, because there should be another bull market in our future -- and you want to be enjoying your share of those big recovery gains.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":368,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9052251148,"gmtCreate":1655182763184,"gmtModify":1676535577383,"author":{"id":"3573310231451722","authorId":"3573310231451722","name":"dankhl","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":5,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3573310231451722","authorIdStr":"3573310231451722"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"<a

Here's What History Shows","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2245953214","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"A look back can help you plan your next move.","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>Officially, we are in a bear market -- that's when stocks close 20% lower than their most recent highs. The question on every investor's mind: How long will this bear market last?</p><p>No <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE.U\">one</a> really knows the answer. Sure, pundits will try to predict (or guess), but those predictions will cover every outcome possible, from a quick, painless recovery to an extended downturn, the likes of which we've never seen.</p><p>A look backwards, though, tells us this bear market will likely fall between those two extremes.</p><h2>What history says about bear markets</h2><p>Since 1950, the <b>S&P 500 </b>has dropped more than 20% on 11 occasions. Below are some interesting data points on those pullbacks, according to a new report from Yardeni Research (PDF).</p><ul><li>The early 2000s bear market took <b>929 days</b> to reach its lowest point. That's about two and a half years. This bear market occurred after the amazing rise of internet stocks in the late-1990s.</li><li>The second-longest bear market started in 1973 and took <b>630 days</b> to hit bottom. Contributing factors to the downturn were inflation, slow economic growth, and political turmoil surrounding U.S. President Nixon.</li><li>The early 80's bear market lingered for <b>622 days</b> before stocks started rising again. Inflation had a role here too. The Fed took an aggressive stance against rising prices by raising the federal funds rate to an eye-popping 20%. A recession and high unemployment followed.</li><li>History's shortest bear market was the 2020 downturn, prompted by pandemic-related shutdowns and uncertainty. Stock prices fell for only <b>33 days</b> before returning to growth.</li><li>On average, not including this current cycle, bear markets last <b>388 days</b> -- or just over one year.</li><li>Excluding the longest and shortest bear markets of 2000 and 2020, respectively, the average bear market duration is almost exactly <b>one year</b>.</li><li>Since 2000, there have been only three bear markets not including this one. <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/TWOA.U\">Two</a> of the three have lasted longer than the one-year average.</li></ul><h2>Investing in a bear market</h2><p>Perhaps the most useful takeaway history provides is that bear markets have always given way to bull markets. If you can avoid selling out of your holdings, or even better, investing throughout the downturn, you'll be positioned for strong gains on the other side.</p><p>Admittedly, continuing to invest in a bear market is emotionally challenging, but you can make small changes to your investment approach to make it easier. For example:</p><ul><li>If you're light on cash savings, you might increase your emergency fund deposits temporarily. An extra liquidity cushion can help you avoid reaching into your portfolio when share prices are down.</li><li>You might lean into dividend stocks more than you have in the past. Whether you reinvest your dividends or take them in cash, you'll appreciate the stability in the throes of a bear market.</li><li>You might rethink your risk tolerance. Except for blips in 2018 and 2020, the market has been strong for years. In bull markets, it's tough to guage how much risk you can handle -- now's the time to ask that question. If you're invested more aggressively than you'd like, you can balance that risk incrementally by adding more conservative, blue-chip positions.</li></ul><h2>This bear market, too, shall pass</h2><p>Bear markets are always uncomfortable for investors. Fortunately, as proven by history, they're also temporary.

The question on every investor's mind: How long will this bear market last?No one really knows the answer. Sure, pundits will try to predict (or guess), but those predictions will cover every outcome possible, from a quick, painless recovery to an extended downturn, the likes of which we've never seen.A look backwards, though, tells us this bear market will likely fall between those two extremes.What history says about bear marketsSince 1950, the S&P 500 has dropped more than 20% on 11 occasions. Below are some interesting data points on those pullbacks, according to a new report from Yardeni Research (PDF).The early 2000s bear market took 929 days to reach its lowest point. That's about two and a half years. This bear market occurred after the amazing rise of internet stocks in the late-1990s.The second-longest bear market started in 1973 and took 630 days to hit bottom. Contributing factors to the downturn were inflation, slow economic growth, and political turmoil surrounding U.S. President Nixon.The early 80's bear market lingered for 622 days before stocks started rising again. Inflation had a role here too. The Fed took an aggressive stance against rising prices by raising the federal funds rate to an eye-popping 20%. A recession and high unemployment followed.History's shortest bear market was the 2020 downturn, prompted by pandemic-related shutdowns and uncertainty. Stock prices fell for only 33 days before returning to growth.On average, not including this current cycle, bear markets last 388 days -- or just over one year.Excluding the longest and shortest bear markets of 2000 and 2020, respectively, the average bear market duration is almost exactly one year.Since 2000, there have been only three bear markets not including this one. Two of the three have lasted longer than the one-year average.Investing in a bear marketPerhaps the most useful takeaway history provides is that bear markets have always given way to bull markets. If you can avoid selling out of your holdings, or even better, investing throughout the downturn, you'll be positioned for strong gains on the other side.Admittedly, continuing to invest in a bear market is emotionally challenging, but you can make small changes to your investment approach to make it easier. For example:If you're light on cash savings, you might increase your emergency fund deposits temporarily. An extra liquidity cushion can help you avoid reaching into your portfolio when share prices are down.You might lean into dividend stocks more than you have in the past. Whether you reinvest your dividends or take them in cash, you'll appreciate the stability in the throes of a bear market.You might rethink your risk tolerance. Except for blips in 2018 and 2020, the market has been strong for years. In bull markets, it's tough to guage how much risk you can handle -- now's the time to ask that question. If you're invested more aggressively than you'd like, you can balance that risk incrementally by adding more conservative, blue-chip positions.This bear market, too, shall passBear markets are always uncomfortable for investors. Fortunately, as proven by history, they're also temporary. You and your wealth can survive this cycle -- often without changing your investment approach at all.If you are compelled to make changes, do so incrementally. Avoid panic selling and major reallocations if you can. Patience will pay off, because there should be another bull market in our future -- and you want to be enjoying your share of those big recovery gains.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":368,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9923887675,"gmtCreate":1670825609898,"gmtModify":1676538441417,"author":{"id":"3573310231451722","authorId":"3573310231451722","name":"dankhl","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":5,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3573310231451722","authorIdStr":"3573310231451722"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"$UNITED OVERSEAS BANK LIMITED(U11.SI)$ Bullish strong moving up..watching closely for the impact drawing near the end due to recent fed announcements.

S$0.003.Together, these acquisitions will boost DPU by S$0.007, bringing CICT’s estimated FY2022 DPU to S$0.111.Get Smart: A combination of strong traitsCICT has many attractive attributes.The REIT is anchored by a reputable sponsor and enjoys a high overall portfolio committed occupancy of 93.6%.The wrinkle in this picture is its aggregate leverage (after its acquisitions), which is expected to increase to 41%.That said, it has a low cost of debt of just 2.3%.I am a firm believer that a REIT’s unit price should trend up along with its DPU.And CICT’s DPU looks set to rise with the many catalysts pointed out above.Assuming a DPU of S$0.111 for FY2022, investors can enjoy a distribution yield of around 5%.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":258,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9928075780,"gmtCreate":1671157581640,"gmtModify":1676538500894,"author":{"id":"3573310231451722","authorId":"3573310231451722","name":"dankhl","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":5,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3573310231451722","authorIdStr":"3573310231451722"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Ok","listText":"Ok","text":"Ok","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9928075780","repostId":"1170870969","repostType":2,"repost":{"id":"1170870969","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1671156482,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1170870969?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-12-16

electric car maker's stock is falling, and the company is laying off employees.","content":"<html><head></head><body><p><b>KEY POINTS</b></p><ul><li>This isn't the electric car maker's first rodeo when it comes to layoffs.</li><li>The move could make Tesla more nimble.</li><li>Management plans to keep all factory workers.</li></ul><p>Shares of <b>Tesla</b> were slammed on Friday, falling more than 9%. The growth stock's slide came as Tesla CEO Elon Musk expressed concerns about the economy in an email to employees, according to Reuters. In addition, Musk said the electric car company plans to cut about 10% of its workforce.</p><p>This news comes at a bleak time for the economy and a difficult few months for Tesla. Regulation in China relating to policies aimed to curb the spread of COVID-19 in the region have negatively impacted the automaker's supply chain in 2022, including leading to periods of paused and limited production at the company's important factory in Shanghai.</p><p>Given all that is going on, should investors be worried about Tesla?</p><p><b>Don't forget: Sales are soaring</b></p><p>While it's possible that Tesla's second quarter may be faring worse than expected, there's still a good chance that things are rosy compared to how many other companies are getting along during these challenging times. For instance, Tesla's Q1 production and deliveries soared 69% and 68%, respectively. Furthermore, management said it expected production to grow 50% or more for the full year despite the challenges it was facing from limited production in China and production constraints from some of its suppliers.</p><p>In addition, Tesla has been raking in massive amounts of free cash flow. In Q1 2022, free cash flow was $2.2 billion -- up 660% year over year. Net income was $3.3 billion, representing more than a sixfold increase. Financials like this help companies get through difficult times and detours.</p><p>Given the automaker's recent momentum and management's commentary about its full-year expectations at the time of its Q1 update, any worse-than-expected performance from Tesla will likely be far from a poor or even mediocre business outcome. Indeed, the company will likely grow much faster than all other major automakers in 2022 -- even in a tumultuous economic environment.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/82b4da3fb9cb519a79fa25c404d03fed\" tg-width=\"2000\" tg-height=\"1500\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>TESLA FACTORY. IMAGE SOURCE: THE MOTLEY FOOL.</span></p><p><b>Tesla has done layoffs before</b></p><p>It's also worth noting that Tesla is no stranger to layoffs. The company laid off employees back in 2019 amid its Model 3 production ramp-up. It was able to keep up extraordinary growth rates despite reducing its headcount by about 7%.</p><p>While it is unfortunate for those employees who are losing their jobs, the reality is that companies can become bloated over time when it comes to headcount.

The growth stock's slide came as Tesla CEO Elon Musk expressed concerns about the economy in an email to employees, according to Reuters. In addition, Musk said the electric car company plans to cut about 10% of its workforce.This news comes at a bleak time for the economy and a difficult few months for Tesla. Regulation in China relating to policies aimed to curb the spread of COVID-19 in the region have negatively impacted the automaker's supply chain in 2022, including leading to periods of paused and limited production at the company's important factory in Shanghai.Given all that is going on, should investors be worried about Tesla?Don't forget: Sales are soaringWhile it's possible that Tesla's second quarter may be faring worse than expected, there's still a good chance that things are rosy compared to how many other companies are getting along during these challenging times. For instance, Tesla's Q1 production and deliveries soared 69% and 68%, respectively. Furthermore, management said it expected production to grow 50% or more for the full year despite the challenges it was facing from limited production in China and production constraints from some of its suppliers.In addition, Tesla has been raking in massive amounts of free cash flow. In Q1 2022, free cash flow was $2.2 billion -- up 660% year over year. Net income was $3.3 billion, representing more than a sixfold increase. Financials like this help companies get through difficult times and detours.Given the automaker's recent momentum and management's commentary about its full-year expectations at the time of its Q1 update, any worse-than-expected performance from Tesla will likely be far from a poor or even mediocre business outcome. Indeed, the company will likely grow much faster than all other major automakers in 2022 -- even in a tumultuous economic environment.TESLA FACTORY. IMAGE SOURCE: THE MOTLEY FOOL.Tesla has done layoffs beforeIt's also worth noting that Tesla is no stranger to layoffs. The company laid off employees back in 2019 amid its Model 3 production ramp-up. It was able to keep up extraordinary growth rates despite reducing its headcount by about 7%.While it is unfortunate for those employees who are losing their jobs, the reality is that companies can become bloated over time when it comes to headcount. From time to time, therefore, it may make sense for a company to reassess which jobs are the most essential and which ones may not be necessary.Given how well Tesla's last layoffs went, there's a good chance that this one could positively impact the company as well.Tesla will leave production headcount untouchedFinally -- and most importantly -- investors should keep in mind that this is a strategic layoff, leaving some important departments untouched.\"Note, this does not apply to anyone actually building cars, battery packs or installing solar,\" Musk wrote in the purported email to employees.This is critical because Tesla has remained supply constrained. In other words, demand continues to exceed supply; so the company's bottleneck at the moment is vehicle production.Overall, this strategic headcount reduction is likely good news for Tesla investors as it may make the company more nimble at a time of uncertainty. While headcount reductions don't make sense for every industry or for every company, it will likely prove to be a good decision for a capital-intensive business like Tesla in a highly competitive industry.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":140,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9026785147,"gmtCreate":1653435995889,"gmtModify":1676535280487,"author":{"id":"3573310231451722","authorId":"3573310231451722","name":"dankhl","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":5,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3573310231451722","authorIdStr":"3573310231451722"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"<a
