This is Ralph Acampora's terminology, or at least I know how he uses it (I
do not know if he invented it.). Since I have had the pleasure of teaching a
technical analysis seminar with him, and have heard him speak many times, I
can tell you what HE means by it:

Cyclical bull market - Relatively shorter term (several years) long.
Typically relating to a business cycle.

Secular bull market - What we have been in since 1982. Long term change in
the valuation of equities.

He termed the 1998 drop as a cyclical bear within a secular bull.

and now i have some nagging questions:
What the hell is a "secular" bull market versus the regular kind? Same
question for a "cyclical" bull market.

in all seriousness,
