Market Comment OFFSHORE MARKETS As is usual, the US stock market may have started a global correction, the first correction since the MSCI World global index fell by from August to November 2016. Since the low in November 2016, the index gained a very impressive + in dollars by 23rd January 2018, with barely any pullback in one of the most sustained uptrends in history. So a pullback or correction is way overdue. Obviously no-one knows how long it may last or how much it may decline, but a normal bull-market correction seldom declines more than -7% for the S&P 500 Index (currently down from its high).
