Russell 2000 Index Bear Markets chart

I believe most of the TV "pundits" miss that we have had many bear markets since the biggie in 2008/09 but the low interest rates kept investors in dividend stocks so the declines were more like 14 to 20% while the small cap stocks saw the full effects.

IF Trump served Powell's favorite food last night at the dinner, then the Fed might be done raising rates for awhile and the markets should be happy as I believe many of the declines were related to "taper tantrums" and related events.
