Is This a Bear Market?

Every index has corrected in the first 2 months of this year. This week, Nasdaq was briefly down more than 20% from its highs. So what is everyone's outlook for the next 12-18 months. Are we beginning a long descent into a bear market, or is this just a regular and long overdue correction before we head higher?
