FYI: t’s been the worst rout since 1901, by Deutsche Bank AG’s reckoning, with almost every asset class delivering losses. These charts illustrate the backdrop to what went wrong this year — and hint at what could go better in 2019.
$14,889,930,106,680
That’s how much the total value of companies listed on the world’s stock markets has declined since peaking at $87,289,962,917,450 on Jan 28. In other words, almost $15 trillion has been wiped off the global equity market this year.
