I have a question for the experienced folks here. Do yoiu agree with these characteristics for short/medium term bull/bear markets?

Bull Market:
On good news → Stocks rise significantly (optimism fuels strong rallies).

On bad news → Stocks drop but not much (investors see dips as buying opportunities).

On no news → Stocks tend to grind higher with small but steady gains (bullish sentiment sustains upward momentum).

Bear Market:
On good news → Stocks go up, but gains are limited (skepticism keeps rallies short-lived).

On bad news → Stocks drop significantly (fear drives stronger selling pressure).

On no news → Stocks drift lower with small but consistent losses (negative sentiment prevails).
