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.
Bull Market. A bull market is loosely defined as a period when the stock market as a whole is rising in price. Certain sectors of the economy may experience a bull market while other sectors remain stagnant or are in decline. The classic way of making money in stocks during a bull market is to purchase a security, wait for the stock price to go up, then sell. The difference between the purchase price and the sale price of the stock is referred to as a capital gain.
