Bulls, bears and dead cats lurk in the background of President Donald Trump’s trade war. As the administration’s latest tariff impacts unfold, news consumers may face unfamiliar conditions related to investments and financial markets. This is a guide to some of the most common words.

Bare Market Bear Market is a term used by Wall Street when indexes such as the S&P 500 and the Dow Jones industrial average have dropped by more than 20% from their recent highs.

Why use bears to refer to market slumps? It represents the stock market of retreats because it bearings Hirebnate. By contrast, Wall Street’s nickname for the surge in markets is bull market as the Bulls accused.

A dead cat is known as “dead cat bouncing” when it rebounds for a short time in a free fall or moment of uncertainty. That’s because of the concept that even a dead cat will bounce off if it falls from sufficient height. Market recovery tends to be temporary and short, while recessions tend to resume.

Suspension and surrender refer to the point where investors give up on the idea of ​​regaining their losses and selling. This tends to occur when confidence is low, uncertainty and volatility is high.

Suspension can mark the bottom of the market, but looking back it’s easier to identify. A recession is an era in which the economy shrinks and unemployment rises. The recession is officially declared by the ambiguous National Bureau of Economic Research, a group of economists taking into account factors such as trends, income levels, expenditures, retail sales, and factory output. The bureau’s Business Cycle Dating Committee defines the recession as “a significant decline in economic activity that spreads across the economy and lasts for more than a few months.”

Organizations usually do not declare a recession until after a year or sometimes after it begins.

In the days before Trump’s recent tariffs came into effect, Goldman Sachs economists raised an assessment of the possibility that the US would experience a recession from 35% to 65%, but analysts rescinded that forecast on Wednesday after his administration announced a 90-day suspension on most of the levee.

“Buy a Dip” or “Buy a Dip” refers to buying a stock or buying it to the market immediately after it loses its value. This phrase is commonly used by retail investors. Unfortunately, the market takes time and it’s almost impossible to know where the bottom is or how long it will take to recover.

10 Years Treasury Notes 10 Years Treasury Bond Yields are the interest rates the US government pays to borrow money for 10 years. This is a key indicator of investors’ sentiment and economic situation and can help you price any other type of loan or investment. Yields affect cost borrowing and expectations regarding inflation and economic growth.

Historically, Treasury debt is considered one of the safest assets in the world. That is, investors often buy when there is uncertainty in the market. The price of 10-year bonds tends to fall when they are confident (and people buy assets that are perceived as high risk).

However, recently, investors have sold their financial obligations and sent a benchmark 10-year yield. It could point to a lack of consumer confidence in the Treasury bonds themselves, or many other factors.

Associated Press authors Stan Cho, Alex Beiga and Chris Lugerber contributed to this report.
