The FTSE

Pre covid traded at $60-seems to be a target
Tech has been hammered this year.

Nasdaq index down 32% YTD.

Been a tough year for many investors with bonds having their worst year that I can remember. UK Gilt index down 24% over one year and Sterling Corporate Bond index down almost 17%.

Yep 2023 got to be better- hasn’t it??
 
I've got money in a stocks and share isa, which has lost a fair amount this year.

Anyone have an educated guess as to when it might get back to the level it was at the start of the year?

I am hoping by summer 2024 because I want to use the money to buy my car.

First you need to find out what is in them. I know this is the FTSE thread, and I doubt more than 20% is anything to do with FTSE shares and then it will be particularly themed ones. The FTSE isn't any worse than it was at the start of the year.

Looking a few months ago the low risk ones took a bigger hit than the high risk ones for most banks, as the low risk ones are normally weighted towards Bonds with less Equities, and as Millwall says the bonds took a hammering.

Short answer, no idea. Some people may be able to guess if you tell them what the name of the investment fund is and risk level.

Mine is in a nutmeg stocks and shares isa.
I've got about 80% of the money in a 7/10 risk pot and 20% in a 6/10 pot.
They are made up of about 70/60% equities and 20/30% bonds and then 'other' makes up the rest.

They have lost about 9% since the start of the year.
