Bull Market Definition - A Bull Market is a prolonged period in which investment prices rise faster than their historical average. Bull Markets can happen as a result of an economic recovery, an economic boom, or investor psychology. The longest and most famous Bull Market is the one that began in the early 1990s. U.S. equity markets grew at a fastest pace than ever before measured. It is the opposite of a Bear Market. A Bull Market is characterized with increasing investor confidence and increased investing in anticipation of future gains. While precise standards do not exist, stock and forex traders alike generally regard a run up of 20% in market prices as an indicator of a Bull Market in action.
