WHAT HAS IP MAN 4 GOT TO DO WITH THE STOCKS MARKETS?

Dear reader, I watched IP Man 4 the movie over the weekends. The movie was simply fantastic. IP Man 4 marked the end of the IP Man movie series with the character IP Man played by Donnie Yen. It will be regrettable if the end of the IP Man movie series mark means that we will see one less action movie star along the likes of Jacky Chan and Jet Li.

We had the first instalment (IP Man) of the IP Man 4 series about ten years ago in the year 2008. The actual premiere date of IP Man was 12 Dec 2008 a day where the Straits Times Index was at 1,740.34. Investors would recognise Year 2008 as the year where the global stocks markets corrected and hence the low index of the Straits Times Index was not surprising.

Fast forward to 20 Dec 2019, the premiere date of IP Man 4, we had the Straits Times Index at 3,212.39 which was about 186% that of the Straits Times Index at the premiere date of the first IP Man show. Hence though the movie IP Man 4 has ended since its first instalment about ten years ago, the bull run of the global stocks markets has not ended for about a decade already ever since the stocks markets corrections in 2008 to 2009. Hence, let us hope markets will continue to do well in year 2020!
