What are bullish vs bearish markets?

Simply put, a bear market is one in which prices are heading down and a bull market is used to describe a market where prices are rising. When a market is said to be bullish, people are looking to invest as confidence is high and markets are rising. Bearish markets follow a downward trend as investors are selling stocks, particularly riskier assets.
