The S&P 500 is down about 5% so far in 2025. Meanwhile, emerging markets are up 4%, and developed markets outside of the U.S. are up 7%. And German stocks, as an example, are up 19%.
In short, we have a generation of investors brainwashed against investing outside the U.S. But right now, that’s exactly what you want to do.
Don’t fall into this trap. The U.S. won’t win forever. And owning stocks outside the U.S. is a smart move right now.
