The BIF Bites team walks down market memory lane and examines bear markets from the past 100 years. Jerry, Mike and Brendan discuss the causes and timelines of each market crash before also exploring the lessons learned from each.

Yes, these are scary times and we must acknowledge that. But we must also look to the past and realize that we have been here before. And in the past we have persevered and rebound each time.

Let's do it again. Together.
