A rebound in US stocks, or new highs in Hong Kong stocks?
On Monday, U.S. stocks experienced a sharp decline.
Since the beginning of this year, the US stock market has continued to fall, and the performance of Magnificent 7 has not been satisfactory. As of March 10, $NASDAQ(.IXIC)$ has fallen 9.54% since the beginning of the year, $S&P 500(.SPX)$ has fallen 4.54%, and $DJIA(.DJI)$ has fallen 1.49%.
The market has both hope and doubts about the rebound of the US stock market. Looking at historical data, although the US stock market has been on an upward trend in the long term, it is necessary to be vigilant against the "double kill" of high valuations and policy shifts in the short term. In addition, the market seems to have slowly figured out President Trump's model and is increasingly dissatisfied with his remarks on Twitter. Global funds do not seem to have a good place to go.
The Hong Kong stock market, benefiting from unexpected AI breakthroughs such as deepseek, has repeatedly broken through historical highs this year, but its sustainability is questionable. In the long run, the Hong Kong stock index has been in a volatile range. Can the Hong Kong stock market continue to rise? How long can it rise? There seems to be no unified market consensus.
Finding certainty in uncertainty, at a time when the volatility of US and Hong Kong stocks has intensified, the Singapore stock market has become a "safe haven" with its low volatility and high dividend characteristics, which is worthy of attention.
