Last week we asked readers to predict which stock markets would perform best this year, choosing from four that have enjoyed a good start in 2012 Hong Kong, India, Indonesia and Singapore.
Based on year-to-date performance, India has had the strongest run so far with an 18.5% rise on the Sensex. Hong Kong’s Hang Seng Index is up 16.5% and Singapore’s Straits Times Index is up 13.5%, while Indonesia’s Jakarta Stock Exchange Composite Index is the laggard of the group with just 4% growth since the start of the year.
