What a first half of the year was it.
In the first six months, the world has seen (not so) a new US president in the oval office, said President UpenD Global Trade Landscape and president in South Korea, removed from office.
Conflicts also erupted between India and Pakistan, as well as Israel and Iran (along with an American air stroke thrown into the mixture.)
The Chinese startup of AI Deepseek made its debut by stealing a Chatgpt Thunder for some time, and the election took place around the world, including in Germany, Australia and even here, Sunny Singapore.
We may just have to call Billy Joel and make him write a whole new version of “We didn’t start the fire.”
Despite such a train trip so far, market investors in response to most developments seem to have accepted the UK mantra as they were preparing for war in 1939: Keep calm and continue.
If we take a longer-term look, the markets have reached a respected performance, despite the variable first half. Just a few statistics: S&P 500 and NASDAQ Composite closed Fresh for all time on Monday and are about 5% year old.
In Europe, the STOXX 600 is 6.7%, and in Asia, most major markets are in positive territory, with Hong Kong and South Korea publishing a huge 20% year.
Keep calm and continue in the second half of the year, investors.
