Brazilian stock market investors have lost in dollar terms – NYSE survey
RIO DE JANEIRO, BRAZIL – Whoever invested in S&P 10 years ago earned almost 15% a year. Those who bought into the Brazilian stock market lost an average of 5% a year in dollar terms.
This is shown by the past 10 years’ performance of ETFs of 20 countries traded on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE).
The Brazilian ETF (EWZ) shows the worst performance in the period, with an average yearly negative return of -4.7%. In the accumulated period, the index has lost 40.5% (largely because the Brazilian real collapsed). The EWZ is a reflection of the MSCI Brazil Index.
The Brazilian ETF had the worst returns of the sample in 2012 (+0.4%); 2013 (-17.5%); 2015 (-41.7%) and 2020 (-20.3%). It was only a positive highlight in 2016 (+64.5%).
In addition to Brazil, only South Africa (EZA) is in the red on the list – but still much better than Brazil – with – 0.7% per year, and – 6.2% in the 10-year cumulative.
The best performer is the U.S. ETF (SPY) with a positive yearly return of 14.7%, and cumulative appreciation of 333%. The second placed is the Netherlands (EWN), with 10.8% per year and 200% cumulative.
