I began my stock trading career during the frenzy of the dot-com bubble<\/a> nearly 25 years ago.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I recall “revolutionary” internet stocks like AOL, Netscape, Yahoo!, and Priceline routinely exploding 10-20% higher (or more) in a single day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I also remember a new online bookstore named Amazon trading below $4 per share in 1999<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The dot-com bubble was the Wild West, as the Nasdaq Composite rocketed +400% higher from 1995 to 2000.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As a naive day trader starting in the late 90s, I understandably thought making money from trading stocks was easy<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I only needed to buy the most hyped dot-com stock of the day, then bag a large profit several hours later.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It really was that simple leading up to the turn of the millennium, BUT…<\/p>\n\n\n

I received a monstrous wake-up call <\/em>when the dot-com bubble eventually burst in the year 2000.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Nasdaq plunged 34% lower just one month after its March peak, and eventually tumbled 77% from its 2000 high.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Needless to say, I quickly discovered my successful bull market strategies were not designed to withstand a bear market.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I realized that trading stocks in a bear market required significant changes to my trading strategy.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

After surviving 3 bear markets over the past 22 years, I now have a great appreciation for the challenge of staying safe <\/em>when the bear strikes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

My valuable lessons at the school of hard knocks have enabled me to understand what works and what doesn’t in a bear market.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Knowledge is meant to be shared<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The Nasdaq Composite is now 31% below its November 2021 peak and near its lowest point of the year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
