Black Swans 2017.
The term “Black Swans” is familiar to almost any stock market player; it characterizes an unexpected event that significantly affects the economy or finances.
It is Black Swans that cause the maximum movement of rates on the currency exchange or the maximum change in quotes on the stock market.
What surprises can the coming 2017 bring us, according to specialists from one of the largest holding companies.
1. US economic growth – Now the US economy is at a fairly low level, that is, a change in the president and government policies can lead to an acceleration of economic growth.
2. EU Reformation - this is being discussed more and more often among the leaders of the Commonwealth countries; the announcement of the start of reform could return Great Britain to the ranks of the European Union, imagine what will happen to the Euro exchange rate then.
3. The fall of the Japanese yen – this currency has been slowly depreciating lately, the next earthquake or decline in exports will lower the Yen rate by more than one hundred points.
4. Sharp rise in oil prices – some influential people who may come to power in the United States are quite interested in high oil prices.
The Russian government also dreams about this; using their influence, these two superpowers will be able to regulate the price of black gold at their discretion.
5. Lifting sanctions against Russia - a fairly real prospect that will lead to an increase in the Russian ruble and an unprecedented increase in the RTS index.
In fact, now you can try to play to increase the latter in the long term.
The main rule in a situation where the news plays against your deal is not to hope that everything will return to normal; you simply may not have enough money to wait out the troubles. It was hope and expectation that caused the greatest financial collapses in world history.
