Dumb question, what metric do people here use to see the end of a bear market and the beginning of a bull?

CPI?
Unemployment?
Housing prices / car prices?

IHH, how it has affected my life... well, I've started to learn and follow economics and the stock market with more interest then I ever did. And I'm starting to rethink vacation trips and put that money in the market instead.

Anyways, I just want to say I enjoy reading people's take (Slava, MoneyGuy, Claeren, Finner, thank you all) and try and do my own due diligence.
