In order to achieve high returns, investors in 2023 didn’t even have to bet on exotic stocks like Greek stocks. Some classics delivered some of the highest returns – while last year’s winners sometimes fell significantly.
The hopes of investors and analysts were probably secretly higher – at least the general expectations for the investor year 2023 were not. But perhaps these doubts have created a good breeding ground for the now numerous and, above all, considerable returns that remain on the bottom line for many investments after twelve eventful months.
