"The Good: On the heels of a 40% jump in 2014, Venezuela’s main IBC Stock Index was up a cool 280% this year. Although, due to currency devaluation, you’d be lucky if you kept any of those 28,000 basis points.The Bad: Coal stocks were an example of another trend that persisted this year. After closing 2014 some 87% off of its 2008 high, the Dow Jones U.S. Coal Index lost another 80% in 2015. That’s why we don’t go bottom-feeding when selecting investments.The Ugly: There were much worse markets in 2015, but the S&P 500 was just plain ugly for anyone trying to figure it out. For one, as of the 2nd to last day of the year, the index was exactly 0.2% away from its 2014 closing price. Furthermore, along the way, it suffered stints of maddening behavior."
