1.2025 saw a *spectacular* surge in ETF launches...This chart is basically a gauge of speculation and risk appetite.As with many sentiment type indicators, you have a better time in the stock market when it’s troughed and turning up vs surging and climaxing after an extended run. 2.Beware of "obvious"!! 🚨 ⚠️ The ironic thing in markets is that once you have all the evidence, once everyone agrees, once the theme becomes obvious...It's almost always *obviously wrong*case in point 👇 (global equities, esp. Europe & Emerging Markets, handily outperformed US equities this year) For SG users only, Welcome to open a CBA today and enjoy access to a trading limit of up to SGD 20,000 with unlimited trading on SG, HK, and US stocks, as well as ETFs.
