Today's market may not exactly feel like a bear market. Yes, all three benchmarks reached into bear territory last year. But since January, things have looked a lot brighter. The S&P 500 index, for example, has climbed more than 18%. And many of the growth stocks that plummeted in 2022 are now on the rise.
The S&P 500 has even advanced more than 20% from its bear-market low -- but it still must reach a new high before we can call a bull market. So, there's still time to take advantage of an opportunity bear markets offer. As tough as these markets may seem, they actually do make great times to buy stocks. Let's check out where to invest $10,000 right now in what might be the final stages of a bear market.
So, what opportunity does a bear market actually offer? The chance to get in on stocks for a good price. In tough times, many solid companies suffer -- and investors flee their shares. This is the perfect moment for you to swoop in and grab a bargain.
