Most intl markets below 2012, some below 2007 level most have drawdowns 5-10% more than US jsut in March most currencies 10-40% lower vs US dollar from peak so in US$ a lot of intl markets are down 60-70% For example Australia - they just surpassed their 2007 peak in February and now 30% down so basically but they are now at levels when s&p was 1000. Or currency adjust 650 so US stock market appreciated somewhere 150% more on relative basis but A$ down 30% since then from 0.9 to 0.6. So real out performance about 200% in US$ the last 10 years most other countries show the same dynamics do you think it's sustainable? Can US continue generate wealth like this? Will US$ reserve status allow for runaway wealth gap in the next 10 years like previous 10 years?
ASX200 is paying high dividend yield contrary to SP500, more than 4% in average those last 20 years. If you consider the total return, that gives a different picture.
DAX lost from above 13k to 8.5k, now at 9.5k. Gold had a big spike last week too... Oil? That'll be interesting once Russia acts.
