Any people with an understanding of economics that can explain to me, why a bear market really is the correct term?

When graph goes down, it looks kind of like a grizzly bear from the side profile, when graoh goes up, it looks like big bulls horns

Bear market is when the market has traditionally been (for the duration of the observers data) in a downtrend and a bull market is the opposite.

This sounds like these shouldn't be the actual scientific terms for that lol

This is the best I can do for a picture, but yeah, things are named fun things all the time. Have you ever heard of Francium?
