What should investors do after the global stock market crash? And are tech stocks still interesting? "Don't let yourself be driven crazy"
Global financial markets experienced significant losses following the Democratic victory in the U.S. midterm elections, particularly affecting tech stocks. The Nasdaq index fell by 5.52%, while the South Korean Kospi dropped by 5.3%. Concerns over potential stricter regulations on AI and tech companies have heightened investor anxiety. Despite the downturn, journalist Stefan Willems advises small investors to remain calm and not react hastily. He suggests that long-term investments in the U.S. remain promising, while also highlighting opportunities in oil and gold due to recent price declines. Willems warns against overexposure to American stocks, especially for younger investors, and encourages diversification into other sectors.
