Our latest mid-year review breaks it all down: the highs, the lows, and the pivotal moments shaping the investment landscape.
As we’re now past the halfway mark of 2025, it’s a fitting time to reflect on what has been a turbulent time in markets – marked by volatility, yet defined by remarkable resilience.
From escalating geopolitical tensions to rapid AI innovation, global markets have ridden a wave of unpredictability with resilience. We narrowly avoided a bear market in the US, saved by a record-breaking rebound.
“The first half of 2025 has undoubtedly been a busy time in markets. Volatility has been rife, with media coverage dominated by negative headlines. However, the market’s rapid rebound, reminds us of the importance to not react to market movements and instead focus on our individual financial objectives.”
