Secular Long-term time frame (10-50 years or more). Secular Market A market as defined by its overarching, long-term trends. Generally, a secular market refers to trends over a period of five or more years. A secular market may be bullish or bearish, and, in market analysis, takes precedence over opposite, short-term trends that happen within the secular market. For example, the Great Depression in the United States lasted from 1929 until World War II (certainly a bearish secular market). Even though some years saw significant GDP growth (including 14.2% growth in 1936), this did not prevent the secular market from being bearish. Thus, a secular market describes general trends in the market without regard for anomalous trends in the interim. See also: Cyclical market. Want to thank TFD for its existence?

Iraq's main Arab parties are beginning to shift from sectarian to secular currents, a trend which is badly affecting Iran's increasingly expensive attempts to control the country, with its Shi'ite Prime Minister (PM) Nuri al-Maleki already secularising his faction of al-Da'wa al-Islamiya movement which is split into pro- and anti-Iran groups (see rim1-IraqMalekiJan19-09). As such, he is secularising his Da'wa (which in Arabic means the call). As far as I can ascertain, there is no Buddhist or Hindu politics of guilt, and to the extent that such fora has taken root among Christians, it generally thrives best, although not exclusively, in secularising Protestant societies. |
