A Bear has his money on the downside...it doesn't mean he's a pessimist, just that he realizes what goes up must inevitably come down......then go up again...then come back down......it's perpetual, bull and bear are directional bet indicators.

In the stock market, there are bulls and there are bears. Simply put, bulls are the ones that pushes the market higher and bears do the opposite.

A bear is someone who thinks the market is going down or is down. Bulls think the market is going up or is up and bears think the opposite.

A "bear" is an investor who tries to profit from declines in the market. For example: A "bear" investor who believes, for whatever reason, that the stock of company XYZ is about to take a fall, will "short" the stock. This means that the investor borrows stock from a broker and sells it at the current high price. When the price falls, the investor buys back the stock and returns it to it's owner, the broker. The difference in the original selling price and the buy back price is the profit for the 'bear".
