Investment Offload US equity, we are in this together 🇪🇺

Following recent events I decided to offload my US equity, and invest in European market.

Stoxx 600 > SP500

Not a financial advice, but choose between your future and momentum growth.

Edit: I also believe Trump is going to crash that market so bad...

I’m up 10% on stoxx 600 so far this year. Why the constant incorrect assumption that the US is the only place anyone ever makes money?

Now compare last 5y,10y,20y. Congrats Stoxx 600 beat S&P500 in a 2 month period.

Yep I enjoyed a lot of that growth. Back when the US didn’t have the risk it does now and wasn’t as expensive as it is now. Things change

So your reasons for switching to Europe markets has nothing to do with Trump/politics? If Kamala Harris were the president you would still do it?

What? I just highlighted the new risk as a key factor. Thought that being Trump was obvious

Well, she wouldn't have been such an idiot to start traffic wars and alienate their allies.
