are expected to rise. It is characterized by optimism, investor confidence, and
increased buying activity. In a bull market, investors are typically willing to pay
higher prices for assets, and the overall market trend is positive. A bull market
can be the result of various factors, such as strong economic growth, low
unemployment, and rising corporate profits. The opposite of a bull market is a
bear market, which is characterized by falling prices and pessimism among
investors.
