A bear would argue, however, that the bulls have a false
consciousness of the health of the market, and that they will
therefore take outsized risks. When the market stops going up,
the perma-bulls become nasty, much nastier than the sanguine bears
on this thread.

Bears tend to be more risk averse than bulls, but this hardly
implies a failure to think clearly.

So, at what point would you become bearish (again)? What would need
to happen to convince you that the bull market had ended?
