Nasdaq Bear Market: 1 Growth Stock to Buy, and 1 to Sell

A bear market becomes official when the price of an asset or index falls by 20% or more. Since the technology-centric Nasdaq-100 market index has declined by 28% so far in 2022, it fits firmly within that criteria.

But a 28% loss doesn't accurately reflect the experience of most tech investors this year, because many individual stocks have collapsed by 50% or more. That's why it's important to be selective when investing in a bear market -- even if a particular company looks cheap because of its beaten-down stock price, it might not be in reality.

Here are two stocks on opposite ends of the spectrum. One is beating the broader market in 2022 and might be worth buying, while the other is heavily underperforming and should probably be avoided.
