There are dozens of different trading strategies that one can employ, but the key is knowing which are best suited for the current environment. In a cyclical bear market, like we’ve found ourselves in, some investors might assume that trend-following strategies are inferior, providing lagging signals in a volatile market environment.

One of the most successful investment strategies is to buy great businesses at a deep discount to fair value, but it’s often much easier said than done.
