After the tumult of 2020, investors were feeling euphoric, betting that the availability of Covid-19 vaccinations would unlock a huge economic rebound that would send stocks soaring.By and large, they were right.As the year comes to a close, the verdict is in for Wall Street: This was a period of good fortune. Even so, simplistic narratives often fell short, as traders learned to expect the unexpected. After all, there was inflation, which was transitory until it wasn't. Some stocks became memes, notching unbelievable gains. Bitcoin skyrocketed, then plunged — then skyrocketed and plunged again.Here are four figures that shine a light on the most significant trends — and provide clues on where the market could head next.1982: The last time consumer prices in America were rising this quicklyThe big economic surprise of the year was inflation, which rattled policymakers and could set the stage for more turbulence in 2022.A jump in demand for goods and supply chain bottlenecks sent prices surging at the fastest clip in almost four decades, feeding political discontent and compelling central bankers to roll back crisis-era stimulus measures more quickly than expected.So far, markets have largely shrugged off inflation fears. But it's good to stay humble, and remember just how wrong many forecasters were. In June, the Federal Reserve predicted that its preferred measure of inflation would run at 3.4% in 2021, already well above its target of roughly 2%. The latest data from November showed inflation at 5.7%.70: The number of times the S&P 500 hit a record high this yearOn Wednesday, the S&P 500 closed at an all-time high. If that sentence feels familiar, it's because this happened 69 other times in 2021, a sign of the market's consistent ability to keep pushing higher despite significant uncertainty about price spikes and the coronavirus.According to Ryan Detrick of LPL Financial, 2021 produced the second most new stock market highs ever. It was also one of the best years for stocks on record, with the S&P 500 on track to finish up 27.6%.Even better: There was only one pullback of 5%. This happens three times a year on average.100 million: The number of GameStop shares traded daily in late JanuaryOne of the most spectacular market moments of the past 12 months was undoubtedly the GameStop (GME) saga.When the struggling video games retailer's shares shot up some 2,700% in January, it woke up Wall Street's suits to the power of armchair investors, who were coordinating on social media networks such Reddit and Discord and using apps like Robinhood to dramatically drive up the stocks of their favorite companies.A report by the US Securities and Exchange Commission later revealed that the volume of stock changing hands was massive. Between Jan. 13 and Jan. 29, an average of 100 million GameStop shares were traded per day, up 1,400% from the 2020 average.And with bigger players now paying attention, the bubble hasn't popped. GameStop is still up 717% year-to-date, even though its losses are widening.2.2 trillion: The value of the global cryptocurrency market in dollarsBy now, everyone knows cryptocurrencies are an extremely volatile asset class. Yet even by bitcoin standards, this year brought real ups and downs.The most popular crypto coin rallied above $60,000 for the first time in March before crashing in May, spooking some new investors. But those who held tight were rewarded. Bitcoin rebounded to an all-time high of $68,789.63 in November — though it is, of course, down again in December.Behind these fluctuations was a larger story. For the first time, many institutions started to take crypto seriously. Payment giants like Mastercard (MA) said they would start accepting crypto purchases on their networks. The oldest US bank formed a \"digital assets\" unit.And why not? $2.2 trillion in market value isn't that big when compared to the size of the global stock market, which was worth $120 trillion in the second quarter. But it's nothing to sneeze at — and growing fast.","kind":"news","is_publish_news":true,"is_publish_highlight":true,"is_publish_live":false,"is_publish_wemedia":null,"editions":null,"column":"","sentiment":"0","news_tag":"","news_rank":0,"symbols":[],"gpt_button":1},"commentList":[{"id":9003632199,"gmtCreate":1640957199564,"gmtModify":1676533558434,"author":{"id":"3585306064379170","authorId":"3585306064379170","name":"Jasminephyo","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/81aad6a5797d9f136f0438609cb372a5","vip":1,"crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"idStr":"3585306064379170","authorIdStr":"3585306064379170"},"htmlText":"Ok","listText":"Ok","text":"Ok","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9003632199","repostId":1179930675,"repostType":4,"isVote":1,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false,"reportStatus":false,"tweetType":1,"langContent":"EN"},{"id":692652557,"gmtCreate":1640953316407,"gmtModify":1676532508705,"author":{"id":"3580294349597017","authorId":"3580294349597017","name":"estherytwu","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","vip":1,"crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"idStr":"3580294349597017","authorIdStr":"3580294349597017"},"htmlText":"Ok","listText":"Ok","text":"Ok","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/692652557","repostId":1179930675,"repostType":4,"isVote":1,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false,"reportStatus":false,"tweetType":1,"comments":[{"id":7144866,"gmtCreate":1640953321023,"gmtModify":1663239346028,"authorId":3580294349597017,"author":{"id":3580294349597017,"idStr":"3580294349597017","authorId":3580294349597017,"name":"estherytwu","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","vip":1,"crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"individualDisplayBadges":[]},"repliedAuthorId":0,"objectId":692652557,"type":1,"supId":0,"prevId":0,"content":"Ok","text":"Ok","html":"Ok"}],"langContent":"CN"},{"id":9003608250,"gmtCreate":1640948551620,"gmtModify":1676533557699,"author":{"id":"3576558112374517","authorId":"3576558112374517","name":"Goodytrader","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/de4ed05450299b7dbc3a7c9c2a232555","vip":1,"crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"idStr":"3576558112374517","authorIdStr":"3576558112374517"},"htmlText":"Me
