Bulls vs Bears
Psychology of a bear
- There is a chance that prices comes down and the bet is that prices will stay down for a long time
- Higher probability of buying low because of lower price and larger time
- Fear of not being a price taker in a bear market
Psychology of hold
- Even if the price goes down, it wont stay down for a long enough duration. So not worth selling
- There is a low probability of prices going up in the near term, but if I get out, it may be hard to get back in
Psychology of a bull
- Prices will go up in the short to medium term
- The current prices are a bargain factoring in future earnings and revenue growth
- Even if there is some short term variance, in the medium term the asset will be worth more and there is no reason in the horizon to liquidate this asset
