$SOL A market pullback refers to a temporary decline in the price of stocks or a broader market index, typically following a recent upward trend. It's usually seen as a short-term dip of 5–10% and can be driven by profit-taking, economic data, geopolitical events, or shifts in investor sentiment.

Key Points:

Not a crash or correction: A pullback is less severe than a market correction (10%+ drop) or a crash (20%+ drop).

Normal and healthy: Pullbacks are common and often seen as a chance to "buy the dip" in strong markets.

Causes: Interest rate changes, inflation data, earnings reports, or global events.

Investor strategy: Long-term investors often hold through pullbacks, while short-term traders might capitalize on volatility.
