After falling for many trading sessions, a short-covering bounce can occur in the market. As investors, ensure that you do not confuse that with the market forming a bottom. While there are those who will say they can predict the market bottom, the fact is that no one really knows when it will happen – or whether it has already happened. In such times, it is best to ignore the indices and focus instead on companies that are fundamentally sound and will grow irrespective of market or economic conditions.
