Previously, we shared fascinating stories about #Taiwan in the 2000s. Now, let's take a look at some major global events from that era that had widespread economic impacts. ๐ถ ๐ง๐ต๐ฒ ๐๐ป๐๐ฟ๐ผ๐ฑ๐๐ฐ๐๐ถ๐ผ๐ป ๐ผ๐ณ ๐๐ต๐ฒ ๐๐๐ฟ๐ผ: The #euro began circulating in EU countries, creating a more unified European market and making trade within the eurozone easier. Today, 20 countries use the euro, which has strengthened European economic stability and boosted the euro's status in global finance. โ๏ธ ๐ง๐ต๐ฒ ๐ต/๐ญ๐ญ ๐๐๐๐ฎ๐ฐ๐ธ๐: On September 11, terrorists hijacked planes and crashed them into the World Trade Center and the Pentagon, leading to significant loss of life. This tragic event caused market closures and a steep drop in airline and insurance stocks, contributing to a global economic downturn. In the aftermath, global security measures and industry regulations were significantly tightened. ๐ฆ ๐ง๐ต๐ฒ ๐ฎ๐ฌ๐ฌ๐ด ๐๐ถ๐ป๐ฎ๐ป๐ฐ๐ถ๐ฎ๐น ๐๐ฟ๐ถ๐๐ถ๐: The U.S. subprime mortgage crisis triggered a global financial meltdown. Major institutions like Lehman Brothers went bankrupt, stock markets plummeted, and banks tightened lending, leading to corporate financial squeezes and widespread layoffs. This crisis led to stronger global financial regulations and a prolonged economic recovery period. ๐ ๐ง๐ต๐ฒ ๐ฅ๐ถ๐๐ฒ ๐ผ๐ณ #๐ฆ๐ผ๐ฐ๐ถ๐ฎ๐น ๐ ๐ฒ๐ฑ๐ถ๐ฎ ๐ฃ๐น๐ฎ๐๐ณ๐ผ๐ฟ๐บ๐: Platforms like #LinkedIn (๐ฉ๐ฐ๐ฐ๐ณ๐ข๐บ!), Facebook, YouTube, and Twitter emerged, becoming powerful tools for business #communication and #marketing.

The Asian markets saw a notable decline due to a tech sell-off and increasing global uncertainty. Various factors contributed to this downturn, including concerns over high valuations, potential interest rate hikes, and intensified regulatory scrutiny, particularly in China.

Beyond the tech sector, broader factors like inflation fears, COVID-19 resurgence, fluctuating commodity prices, and economic slowdowns are influencing market dynamics and investor sentiment.

Noticing market changes during geopolitical events and don't know why? Turns out, there's a strong correlation. Global events of political nature immensely influence market cycles. Fluctuations in the market, often irrespective of our expectations, can frequently be traced back to such events. Take for instance, the Brexit decision. When the UK voters chose to exit the EU, financial markets across the globe trembled due to the uncertainty and the significant changes that were on the horizon. Or consider the trade wars between the US and China; its influence too trickled down as disruptions in the financial market. So next time you spot a portal of uncertainty opening due to a geopolitical event, know that its ripples can reach your investments too. What are your strategies or experiences when dealing with the impact of geopolitical events on your investments? We'd love to hear from you! #MarketCycles #GeopoliticalEvents #InvestingInUncertainty

What does the current market volatility reflect? Our Asia ex-Japan CIO for Core Investment, Ecaterina Bigos, shared her views in a CNBC interview. ๐ The significant market sell-off was driven by a confluence of factors: unmet expectations on returns from Artificial Intelligence spending, concerns over lagged effects from tight monetary policy in the US, along with growing concerns over a more aggressive policy normalization in Japan. ๐Volatility is expected, with the data pipeline over the next few weeks closely watched for confirmation of positive interaction between monetary policy and growth. ๐ With market performance increasingly dependent on growth, assets supported by secular shifts and strategic initiatives are expected to stay resilient.

โ2024 will be the year of the Funambulist,โ says Dong Chen, Chief Asia Strategist and Head of Asia Research at Pictet Wealth Management. As Dong Chen explains, policymakers will be walking on tightrope as they try to balance a soft landing against economic uncertainties to avoid a severe slowdown in the year ahead. Across Asia, investors will need to be patient for Chinaโs revival as the right catalyst to support their property sector has yet to emerge, and in the meantime there are bright spots in South Korea and Taiwan, as these locations look to benefit from a rise in global semiconductor demand. Watch the Bloomberg News interview below for more insights into the 2024 Investment Outlook. #PictetWealthManagement #InvestmentOutlook #Asia
