Let’s look back at the big financial events of 2021 and the lessons we learned. 2021 was an exciting year in markets, we had meme stocks, SPACs, hedge fund blow ups and the mainstreaming of crypto. The stock market went from strength to strength this year. The year started out with the short squeezes in GameStop and then AMC.

As global economies bounced back from the pandemic, supply chains buckled due to shortages either of goods or people to deliver them. The squeeze on the labor market pushed up wages, and the press was filled with tales of the great resignation. We saw soaring oil and commodities prices and the collapse of Chinese property giant Evergrande but none of this could derail investor exuberance. Stock markets and house prices took off in 2021.

In the world of geopolitics, the first big story of the year was Brexit - Britain’s withdrawal from the EU. On top of this, the tensions between the United States and China was a big theme and may remain so in 2022. As the year comes to an end, Russia’s intentions toward Ukraine are raising concerns worldwide.

2021 was a big year for IPO’s, 1058 companies went public over the course of the year. As crypto went mainstream, we saw every social media influencer launch their own coin or NFT project. So, let’s look back at some of the biggest stories of the year.
