Now that her national poll average has dipped below 48, Hillary Clinton (NASDAQ: HRCL) has entered a bear market.

If you look at her poll numbers since Sanders entered the race until her freefall began about a month and a half ago (high of 63.3 and low of 58.6) it roughly averages to about 60. Using stock-market parlance, a loss of 20% from 60 is a bear-market. And she got there this week (now at 47.8)
Btw, I did post a diary on July 19 asking if Clinton was in a freefall.

As of that day, Clinton's average was 58.0 and Sanders was at 16.0 She has dropped a full 10 points from there - in just over a month. Now she is at 47.8 (a loss of 10.2) and Sanders is at 26.3 (a gain of 10.3)
