One part of society\nthat has been impacted heavily due to the shift in ideals is the financial\nsectors. Investors in this year shifted their methods and strategies in an\nenvironment where uncertain financial policies impacted trade universally. This\nshift in financial ideals caused a shift in market behaviour leaving a lasting\nimpact on universal technological development. 2018 was a year that brought\ntogether key elements of technological advancement that heavily impacted market\nbehaviour and investor trends.<\/p>\n\n\n<h1 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Technological\nInvestor Priority<\/strong><\/h1>\n\n\n<p>One\nof the largest beneficiaries in 2018 were tech industries. In a year that saw\nan overhaul of investor sentiment, technology remained a steady progressor in\ninvestor faith, this is due to the visible improvement in the operations of\nthese industries across the market. This year saw more investment towards\ntechnological development with large capital raised by companies specialising\nin AI, Blockchain, and non-banking financial infrastructures like Venmo. On the\nflipside, investor faith snowballed in non-regulated financial infrastructures\nthat were impacted by government oversight and policy, the biggest example of\nthis is the fall of the cryptocurrency market. The change in ideals for\ninvestors culminated in the year 2018 being the first in history where\ntraditional powerhouse markets like gems and jewellery, oil and pharmaceuticals\nraising less capital investments than technology and development.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n<h1 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>The\nShift In Investor Education<\/strong><\/h1>\n\n\n<p>2018 was the year of the educated investor, financial ideals in the past year were highly focused on regulation policies by worldwide markets, investors became more cautious in investing large amounts in dwindling markets with unstable market forces, the largest drop-off in investor faith was experienced in American markets with unstable policy regulations creating an environment of uncertainty across industries. Few investors relied on sentiment-based investment, and traditional market faith dwindled heavily. The focus shifted to conservative <a href=\"https:\/\/staging-imarticus.kinsta.cloud\/certified-investment-banking-operations-program\/\"><strong>investment banking courses<\/strong><\/a> strategies in most industries, the exception being medical technology, AI and security.<\/p>\n\n\n<h1 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>What\nAre The Concerns?<\/strong><\/h1>\n\n\n<p>The\npast year also was a year of deep introspection by markets on core issues of\ntechnology development, with Facebook, Google and Uber being questioned by\ngovernments and users alike on user-privacy, applicational integrity and social\nimpact issues like cyberbullying, crypto safety and data regulation. This\ncreated an uncertain environment that led to investors questioning the ethics\nof technological development, the investor behaviour reflected resistance to\nsocial media investments due to lack of oversight and concerns of leadership\noverhauls. Another aspect of technological development that impacted investor\nsentiment and behaviour is the use of technology without oversight, the need\nfor government regulation or the reluctance to accountability to ethical and\nsustainable development.<\/p>\n\n\n<p>In\nconclusion, 2018 was a year of shifts in financial ideals, the year shifted the\nthought of investors in the short and long term and focused heavily on\nregulated tech infrastructure while also showing caution amongst investor faith\nin traditional markets. This created a new dynamic for both technological\nevolutions while creating questions about checks and balances to sustain the\ndevelopment in ethical means. The trend of technology investments focused on\nmedicine, AI and cybersecurity seem on the up in the year 2019 as well, but\nother networks like social media and crypto-currencies seem to lack investor\nfaith.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The year 2018 has been one of consistent evolution and change.
