Dubai stock market has been sloping downwards in the last
few weeks. The stocks were showing a steady rise since 2012 creating a bull
market until May this year. After that, the bull market ended and the stock has
fallen by 25% since its peak in May.
The previous boom that ended tragically in 2008 caused a
great stir in the market. There are speculations that this might be another
one. The government has taken several measures to secure the market, like
issuing caps and imposing registration fees etc.
However, relative to other options, the Dubai market seems
the better choice to Arab investors against other unstable conditions in the
region.
