The term market turbulence refers to periods in which financial markets experience rapid and sharp price changes, whether upwards or downwards, often driven by a mix of economic, political, and psychological factors affecting investors.
During Market Turbulence, the market resembles a troubled sea, where trends change quickly, and uncertainty increases, prompting traders and investors to make more cautious or impulsive decisions.
Common causes of sharp fluctuations:
• Sudden economic events such as inflation data or interest rate decisions.
• Political and geopolitical developments such as conflicts or economic sanctions.
• Financial or banking crises affecting investor confidence.
• Sudden changes in supply and demand for goods or currencies.
• Psychological factors like panic or excessive greed.
How do investors deal with it?
• Diversifying the investment portfolio to reduce risks.
• Using stop-loss orders to protect capital.
• Monitoring news and economic indicators closely.
• Not getting swept away by emotions, especially fear and greed.
In the end, Market Turbulence is not always negative; it can provide golden opportunities for professional investors who can read the market accurately, but it represents a true test of risk management and discipline in trading.
