Investors are throwing money at America’s stock markets. πΈπΈπΈ
In the first half of 2021, global money managers put a record-breaking $900M into U.S. funds. It shows the demand for U.S. stocks, which were more popular than every other market combined. π
The $900M haul comes after investors tossed over a trillion dollars into international and emerging market funds last year, which dwarfed U.S. inflows by a sizable margin. Unfortunately for them, not all markets have done as well as the S&P 500.
U.S. stocks have rallied during the COVID-19 pandemic, giving many bulls something to cheer about. Strong earnings continue to push U.S. equities “up and to the right.”Β
However, many analysts are anticipating that we’re fast-approaching peak growth for this economic cycle. And when things slow down, that means valuations will too.
But that doesn’t mean it’s ever a bad idea to bet on American stocks. πΊπΈ
