What are the Yankee market, bulldog market, and the Samurai market?

The Yankee market, bulldog market, and samurai market are all terms used to describe different markets in different countries. In reality these names do not really have any significant value in them. Not everyone is going to know what these terms mean and they will not really help you in your trading.

But they are interesting and fun to look at. Here is a list of what these nicknames mean and why they were created.

The Yankee market refers to the US stock market because a Yankee is a nick name for us citizens in most parts of the world. So, the Dow Jones, S&P 500, and the New York stock exchange would all be considered to be part of the Yankee Stock Market because they all track stocks that are in the U.S.

It is really just a nickname for stocks within the United states of America. Other countries have similar nicknames. In fact here are a few other countries.

The Bulldog market is used to refer to the British stock market, and no it has nothing to do with a bull market. It was created after the famous bulldog that comes from the UK. As the So the London stock exchange would be considered part of the Bulldog Market.

The Samurai market refers to the Japanese stock market after the famous samurai warriors who roamed the land, became famous warriors, and brought upon legendary tales some true, some probably too farfetched to be true. So the Tokyo Stock exchange would be considered part of the Japanese Stock Exchange.

These are just some terms that people use to describe markets in different parts of the world. Most of these terms are used outside of their home country and are nothing more than slang for describing the different stock markets in different parts of the world.
