There were a decent number of astonishment that flew up in 2016.
My kindred Fool Lawrence Nga had secured some of 2016's real occasions in here and here. As Lawrence noted, 2016 began with decreases in securities exchanges far and wide, Singapore's incorporated.
This was the principal shock of the year.
A noteworthy market decay
Amidst the gore toward the beginning of January 2016, an examiner from Scottish bank, Royal Bank of Scotland, turned out shouting to financial specialists to "offer everything".
For a brief minute, the expert seemed, by all accounts, to be onto something. The SPDR STI ETF (SGX: ES3), a trade exchanged reserve that mirrors the basics of Singapore's market gauge, the Straits Times Index (SGX: ^STI), shut 2015 at $2.95 and immediately subsided to a low of $2.55 in mid-February 2016. That is a decrease of 13.5% in under one and a half months.
However, this changed inside a few months. By 21 April 2016, the SPDR STI ETF was hitting a high of $2.97. The ETF finished 2016 at a cost of $2.94, only one penny not exactly in 2015.
The following shock for 2016 drew close to the center of the year.
Gracious, Brexit
On 23 June 2016, natives of the United Kingdom voted in favor of the nation to leave the European Union.
The vote shocked many, including securities exchanges the world over. The SPDR STI ETF, which shut at $2.85 upon the arrival of the vote, tumbled to as low as $2.78 the exact following day. The impact of the Brexit amaze did not keep going long, however.
By 30 June 2016, the SPDR STI ETF shut at $2.88. Also, we know exactly where the ETF wound up before the year's over.
Trump wins the US races
In a comparable way to Brexit, Donald Trump's win in the November 2016 US presidential decision was unforeseen.
On 8 November 2016, the day of the US race surveys, the SPDR STI ETF shut at $2.88. The following day – as the consequences of Trump's win turned out – the SPDR STI ETF shut at $2.84, a fall of 1.4%. US securities exchange prospects even indicated huge decays taking after news of Trump's triumph.
Be that as it may, the impacts from Trump's win did not last. On the next day, the SPDR STI ETF shut at $2.88. At the point when the US securities exchange opened after the surveys, stocks there finished the day with increases.
The huge lesson
In the event that you didn't take a gander at the Singapore securities exchange for the whole 2016, you would have imagined that no enormous changes or astonishes had happened amid the year.
In that, lies a decent lesson in long haul thinking for speculators.
When we take a gander at money markets over brief eras measured in months – as we had above – it would appear that something that is overflowing with turmoil and shocks. In any case, on the off chance that we begin to stretch our view past days and months into years or even decades, we start to see an altogether different picture. As I had said before, the SPDR STI ETF finished 2016 at almost a similar cost from the prior year.
That is the force of taking a long haul see.
What's more, with that, I need to demonstrate a tweet by my US associate, David Kretzmann.

For every one of the amazement that happened in 2016, the US securities exchange, spoke to by the S&P 500, shut the year with a 9.5% pick up.
