Which major index has been able to generate a return for investors since the beginning of the credit crunch?
India's Sensex leads the way after climbing from 14,868 points to over 18,000. The index did fall as low as 8,325 during the height of the market panic in March last year.
The worst performing index over the period has been the Shanghai Composite, despite the Hong Kong market returning to near parity.
