We took a look at the record market correction in 2021 and how Southeast Asia fared gainst other global emerging markets in 2021  during Tech Investment in Southeast Asia: On the crest of a wave.

When we take a closer look at Southeast Asia, how did tech companies’ stock prices fluctuate since they went IPO? And how did crypto companies do?

IPOs contributed significantly to the record amount of capital in Southeast Asia.

Macro sentiment of capital markets

Crypto companies have a fluctuating graph too

Axie Infinity and OMG Network also saw drastic price movements from the second half of 2021.
