Drawdown - "A drawdown is a peak-to-trough decline during a specific period for an investment"

The markets are almost always in a drawdown.

Only 6% of trading days since 1990 produced new market highs i.e for 94% of trading days the market was in a drawdown.

The average drawdown for NIFTY 50 over the past 29 years has been -18%!!

Nifty 50 has been in a -10% or worse drawdown in 59% of the trading days since 1990.
