What the first half of the year has been.
In the first six months, the world saw a new president of the United States (not so) in the Oval office, said the president turned the world commercial landscape, and a president in South Korea withdrew from office.
Conflicts also exploded between India and Pakistan, as well as Israel and Iran (along with an American air attack thrown into the mixture).
The Chinese Startup of the Deepseek made its debut, stealing the thunder of Chatgpt for a while, and the elections took place throughout the world, even in Germany, Australia, and even here in Sunny Singapore.
We may have to call Billy Joel and make him write a completely new version of “We do not start the fire.”
Despite such a roller mountain trip until now, market investors, in response to most developments, seem to have adopted the United Kingdom mantra while preparing for war in 1939: keep calm and continue.
If we have a long -term vision, the markets have delivered respectable performance despite a first volatile half. Only a few statistics: the S&P 500 compound and Nasdaq closed in the new maximums of all time on Monday and has increased approximately 5% to date.
In Europe, Stoxx 600 has increased 6.7%, and in Asia, most main markets are in positive territory, with Hong Kong and South Korea publish a huge 20% gain to date.
Keep calm and continue in the second half of the year, investors.
