FYI: Below is a one-year chart showing the percentage of total world equity market capitalization that the US stock market makes up (from Bloomberg‘s world market cap indices). Heading into the 2016 Presidential Election, the US was losing market share to the rest of the world. But following President Trump’s victory, this reading shot up from just over 36% to nearly 38.5%. That’s a huge move.
Since peaking at the end of 2016, however, we’ve seen a steady drift lower down to just above 36.5%. At this point the US has only gained a very small % of share in world market cap since Trump’s victory night.
