Lumens measure how much light you are getting from a bulb. More lumens means it's a brighter light; fewer lumens means it's a dimmer light. Lumens are to light what. Pounds are to bananas. Gallons are to milk.
The Kuala Lumpur Composite Index is the world's longest running bull market. Since January 2008 the KLCI has not had a 20% correction (which represents a bear market and the end of a bull market). Malaysian shares have moved up 88% during this bull run. But it hasn't been easy.
Best Answer: The bear market is synonymous with a market that is going down. A bull market means that the market is going up. It comes from the early days of the stock market when bull and bear fights were common. A bull is someone who believes the stock market will go up and a bear is someone who believes the stock market will go down. A bull market is a rising market and a bear market is a falling market. Where does bull and bear come from? Some sources say that a bull knocks you up in the air (rising market) and a bear knocks you down (falling market). However, there were some old proverbs floating around Europe during the 1700's.
