Every so often, you come across something at an antique store that makes you wonder: What on earth was that used for? Celery vases, for example. Celery used to be a novelty, so you bought special vases to display it. Other things, such as left-handed monkey wrenches, need more elaborate explanations, often provided by helpful sales people.
Which brings us to bear-market funds. They are remarkably popular, but do you need them? In most cases, no.
