I'm very new to the investment world, and I keep hearing about the "Bulls" and
the "Bears" in the stock market. To my knowledge, the Bulls are the ones that
push stocks as investments, as in "buy" stocks, and the Bears like it when you
sell your stock or when the market goes down. Now, who are these Bears ?. Why
are they involved in the market if they thrive when it is down ?. Are these 
bears bond holders, market arbitragers, or people who sell short ?.
I'd appreciate any clarifying remarks on this matter.

					 BIG DAVE.
