US stock market capitalization accounts now for 74% of the MSCI World Index. New ATH.


Since the end of the 2008 Financial Crisis, this percentage has increased by ~25 points. By comparison, Europe and Japan’s share have dropped by ~15 and ~5 percentage points, respectively.


As a result, the US' share of global market cap is now 4 times larger than Europe and Japan combined.


This comes as the S&P 500 has rallied 450% over the last 15 years compared to a 70% and 310% gain of the Euro Stoxx 50 and Nikkei 225.
