By one measure, this current bull market in history is now the best ever. The current market boom has recorded a whopping 472 percent gain for the S&P 500. That makes this the biggest-returning bull run since World War II, according to research from the Leuthold Group.
The previous record was set by the bull market from 1949 to 1956, which scored a 454 percent gain for the S&P 500. The explosive bull run in the 1990s saw the S&P 500 rally 391 percent, while the bull market of 2002–2007 pulled off a 121 percent gain for the index.
The current run has already been recognized as the longest bull market in history. The S&P 500 bottomed out on March 9, 2009, which means we have been in a bull market for more than ten and a half years now.
