How long do bear markets last? We still don’t know how long this bear market will last. A long-term look at the history of the Dow Jones Industrial Average shows that the stock market has come back after bear markets, but investors had to suffer substantial pain. After the 1929 crash, it took investors 16 years to restore their investments if they invested at the market high. In 2000, it took about five years. But after the 1990 crash, it took only eight months. (All examples assume dividends were reinvested.) Since 1900, a bear market has concurred once every 3 ½ years on average and has lasted about 329 days.
