Trend - the direction in which the market is moving in. When the supply of the market is greater than the demand, the trend will be down as there are more sellers than buyers.   When the demand is greater than the supply, the trend will be up as there are more buyers than sellers.  If the forces of supply and demand are nearly equal, the market will move sideways. Eventually, when new information enters the market, it will begin to trend again, either up, down or perhaps sideways still, depending on how that information is viewed; positive (bullish), negative (bearish) or neutral (sideways.)   A Revolutionary Opportunity Not just a new product - New modality Incisional closure technology Combines advantages of MSS and absorbable sutures.
