Short Term Turbulence

Definition

Short term turbulence refers to temporary periods of increased volatility and price fluctuations in financial markets. These periods are characterized by rapid and unpredictable price movements, often driven by specific news events, market sentiment shifts, or technical trading factors. Such turbulence typically does not indicate a fundamental change in long-term market direction but rather a transient phase of uncertainty. Investors often view these as opportunities or risks depending on their trading strategies.
