Kenneth L. Fisher has published a new column in The Business Times discussing the potential impact of tariffs on the Straits Times Index (STI) in 2026.
Fisher argues that despite concerns about protectionist policies and tariffs, historical data and market patterns suggest that such measures are unlikely to trigger significant shocks to the STI. He points out that financial markets have often absorbed the economic impact of tariffs and continued to perform steadily. Fisher cautions investors against overreacting to tariff headlines, urging focus on fundamental, long-term trends in the Singapore market.
The commentary is available in English and free to access on The Business Times website.
Fisher’s perspective on the muted effects of trade barriers on the STI aligns with his prior assessment of stock market dynamics and forward-looking trends, as detailed in his analysis of stock market predictions for 2026. His broader commentary on investment strategies amid shifting global policies also builds on themes he explored in his recent Privata Affarer column on financial trends, underscoring a consistent emphasis on long-term fundamentals over short-term market reactions.
