Dead Cat Bounce vs. True Bottom: Where Are We Now?

After a series of declines, the market has become increasingly cautious about any rebound. Most people believe this is merely a dead cat bounce in a bear market, with further drops likely to come. However, some argue that with Trump softening his stance on tariffs, the impact of tariffs on the market may lessen going forward. If a recession can be avoided, the market's downside potential might be limited. Investors are divided on where we are in the current cycle. What’s your take? Is this a dead cat bounce or have we already hit the bottom?

🌟🌟🌟Despite the current US policies, I believe that it is important to stay calm and not panic sell.  I am still invested in the markets.  My favourite ETF is $INVESCO S&P 500 LOW VOLATILITY UCITS ETF(SPLG.UK)$ which tracks the S&P500 Index at a low entry point.  This ETF also has the lowest Expense ratio among competing ETFs at just 0.02%.  Investing is a marathon, not a sprint. @Tiger_comments @Tiger_SG @TigerClub @CaptainTiger

🌟🌟🌟Tariffs are like a Tax on consumption of goods.  Ultimately it is the US consumers who pay the high price, not the manufacturer, nor the importer. Walmart and Target have told Donald Trump that within weeks their shelves maybe bare as the taxes are too high. I believe that the current high tariff especially on China will be reduced  as it is not sustainable on the US economy. Nonetheless I am still invested in the markets.  My preferred strategy is to buy Index ETFs as they minimise my risk and offer great diversification in my portfolio. @Tiger_comments @Tiger_SG @CaptainTiger

I do not think it is a dead cat bounce or the bottom.. I think the market will continue to swing during trump's entire tenure.. he is known to be unpredictable.. and the market will be that.. I think the volatility will continue to stay high.. I mean look at how long he is president and how wide the swings are till date...

Dead Cat or Launchpad? Why This Market’s Bounce Might Have Claws

The question on everyone’s mind is simple, but not easy: is this a dead cat bounce or the start of a genuine recovery? Investors have grown wary of any rebound after months of declines, volatility, and whiplash-inducing headlines. Yet, beneath the caution lies a potential turning point. From cat to catalyst: is this market ready to launch? While the rhetoric on tariffs softens—especially from the Trump camp—the markets have responded in kind. Tariffs once loomed as a clear threat to earnings, margins, and sentiment. But if a recession can be sidestepped, the market’s downside from here could be more bark than bite. Three Stocks, Three Surprises Let’s anchor the debate with three heavyweight names that know a thing or two about dramatic swings: Nvidia, Amazon, and Ford.

$Tiger Brokers(TIGR)$ there is no way to tell till it has happened and possibly written declarations on the tariff issues instead of hot air from DT. Traders just have to make shorter bets and investors not to finish with all the ammunition before the coast is clear.

Is the Market Rebound a Trap? Decoding the Dead Cat Bounce Debate

The financial markets in 2025 are grappling with a critical question: is the recent rebound a fleeting dead cat bounce or a true bottom signalling a sustainable recovery? A dead cat bounce refers to a short-lived price recovery within a broader downtrend, often driven by temporary optimism or technical factors, while a true bottom indicates a fundamental shift toward sustained growth. With the US-China trade war escalating, economic indicators pointing to a slowdown, and investor sentiment divided, this analysis explores the current market cycle and proposes three high-probability options trading strategies to navigate the volatility. Market Context and Economic Indicators The US-China trade war, ongoing since 2018, has intensified in 2025, with the US imposing a 145% tariff on Chinese goo

Dead Cat Bounce Or True Bottom?

🌟🌟🌟Is the US market experiencing a Dead Cat Bounce or has it hit a true bottom?  For new investors, a dead cat bounce refers to a short lived recovery in a declining market.  It is a temporary spike before further declines resume.  In contrast, a true bottom represents the point at which a market has found sufficient support to begin a sustained recovery.  In the current environment, distinguishing between these 2 scenarios is rather challenging given mixed market signals and the Trump factor. Dead Cat Bounce: Technical indicators suggest that the recent rally in the US markets could be a Dead Cat Bounce.   While the markets have rebounded from recent lows, uncertainties which include geopolitical tensions, tariff related disruptions, continue to weigh on the
