A bear market occurs when the stock market declines at least 20 percent over

People who just invested in the market may not be prepared for it.
The Institute of Certified Financial Planners has some reccommendations.
First, DON'T PANIC.
It's inevitable a bear market will arrive.
Usually it happens every four years.
HAVE REALISTIC EXPECTATIONS.
Last year was an unusually good one for the market.
On average, it has returned 10- and- a- half- percent since 1926, but with
some pretty wild swings in between.
DIVERSIFY.
Spread out your investment funds among stocks, bonds, and short- term cash
reserves.
KNOW YOURSELF.
If the thought of losing money makes you cringe, don't put everything in the
market.
LOOK LONG TERM.
That reduces the pressure to sell since you don't need the money right away.
