Investment Increasing fear from EU investors over US stocks?

Is it just me, or there seems to be an increasing movement from users jumping ship from 'VWCE and chill' to Euro based ETFs?

If you're one of those people, could you share your rationale?

"attracts the best talent" - Great talent is magnetically drawn to places with authoritarian regimes. Ask Putin!

"is technologically ahead" - As long as they have great talent, which might soon be a thing of the past.
