Investors have been facing tough times, and when you consider that according to a Charles Schwab survey, 15% of investors began trading stocks in 2020. That means there’s a lot of people who are experiencing their first bear market. While 2020 did see a bear market, it was very quick as stocks sold off in March, causing the S&P 500 (SPX) to fall nearly 35%, but then recovered nearly half of its losses by April.

These problems include residual effects from the COVID-19 pandemic, skyrocketing inflation, rising interest rates, oil prices reaching $100 per barrel, and geopolitical turmoil with Russia invading Ukraine. These issues have caused sell-offs in stocks, taking the Nasdaq Composite ($COMP) and the Russell 2000 (RUT) nearly 20% off their highs and flirting with bear market territory.
