Is there any country(s) that can beat the US S&P500 index?

For the last 18 years the US has outperformed the rest of the world, and by a large margin. The global stock market usually goes through cycles where the US dominates, then cools off for a bit while the rest of the world picks up, then the US takes over again etc. It's known as "cycles".

But usually those cycles lasted only a handful of years, between 3 and 6 years. However the US has now been in their cycle for 18 years straight...

From my perspective, all the tech and innovation is in America, all the money is in America, all the contacts are in America.

No other country, or even entire continent even comes remotely close. There just doesn't seem to be any innovation happening anywhere outside of the US.

At the end of the day technology is the easiest to scale, fastest to grow and most profitable type of sector, and since the US is essentially the only player in town, I think the US will stay in this cycle for basically ever?

I see a question mark but no question.

Lots of innovation occurs in USA. Not all innovation comes from publicly-traded companies though.

But you're ultimately not even talking about that. You're talking about one benchmark stock index versus others. The capital markets in the USA are more robust and developed.

If you spend as much time thinking about this stuff as is suggested by the number of threads you make on the subject, you might actually have time to find a more focused investment avenue that would in fact outperform the S&P 500.

Seriously, it's a pretty good video. Stumbled upon it right after the other comment.

I checked, just for fun, and it seems as just one of the Chinese top 5 corporations are worth more than all of the top 5 in the US. But I didn't really check it all that thoroughly so I probably missed something or just read something wrong.

At least it seems very close or leaning toward the chinese side, maybe. :P

No S&P 500 is the best, try and fail to beat it.

I read that most people in China doesn't have access to investing, that's why they look for other opportunities, like houses before the crash, and now Crypto and CS skins(?) before one of them crashed as well, is that true? :I

Might be a reason why their stock-market isn't as big as in the USA?
