This is by far the best book to read during a bear market It covers everything you need to know about surviving a bear market why protecting your capital is more important than making money, why bear markets look easy in hindsight but feel completely different when emotions are involved, and why past recessions seem manageable on paper even though they were incredibly difficult to live through at the time. If you can spare just 15 minutes a day, I highly recommend reading it It's only 245 pages but it's packed with valuable lessons
