This bull market is 10 years old? Try three months

The revelers insist that the bull market began on Mar. 9, 2009. Yet that bull market came to an end long ago. If we’re even in a bull market right now — and that is not for sure — an argument can be made that it’s less than three months old.

The third possibly came between May 2015 and February 2016, when the Russell 2000 index RUT, -2.01% — though neither the S&P 500 SPX, -0.65% nor the Dow Jones Industrial DJIA, -0.52% fell by more than 20%. Why does the bull market’s age matter? One reason: Some worry that bull markets die of old age. If indeed this bull market began in March 2009, it would be one of the oldest in U.S. stock market history — and, therefore, so the worriers believe, ripe for an early death. In fact, as mentioned above, it’s not even sure we’re in a bull market right now, but if we are it’s just three months old.
