Surprises to be expected

January was an unusually good month in the stock market. The MSCI World Index returned 3.5%, which – in case you feel it sounds unimpressive – corresponds to an annual return of more than 50%. For once, however, it was not pulled up by the US stock market, as the S&P delivered a somewhat more modest total return of 2.8%. This, for the record, corresponds to a still very decent 39% annual return.
