  1. We deserve everything we are getting. We played with stupid and are getting fucked. Maybe this will slap some sense into some people.

  2. Just wait for Romania, we re tumbling too because the majority of our people are imbecils

  3. Aligning ourselves with and trusting the US so blindly has been the biggest foreign policy mistake my country has made the past 60 years

  4. Germany’s market is about to plunge due to Merz’s likely resignation

  6. Usa market is soo big. Their -6% basicaly cancels out all growth from all other countries as world is minus 0.8
    Basicaly its just same money went from usa to other countries

  7. I’m more concerned with the growth of the ordinary persons salary than growth in stock market valuations.

    Capital markets have been winning all my life but the ordinary people are no better off.

  10. Don’t worry, USians, this is just _Biden’s Economy_, give it a bit longer and GDP will be up by 3,251%.

  11. I’m all for this rhetoric but looking at the last four months only I think is hugely blinkered.

    The US has been on an extended bull run while Europe lagged behind, this looks more like a short-term reversion to the mean than a structural shift.

    Lets see how we do over the next 12 months but more importantly the next five years. We need to see meaningful improvements in non-US living standards. Without that, the conditions that fuel our rising extremism; economic insecurity, growing inequality, disillusionment in society – will remain.

  13. This must be including the drop of the USD in account. We don’t see any 18% in Sweden

  15. Tbf, this is like picking statistics. April to December is a very picky way of selecting this chart to convey a point (and I’m spanish). Stock market movements in the last 5yrs would show a different picture. Especially because it did so well during Biden admin. But of course, going forward, Trump uncertainty will leave space for the European market to match returns to the US market that has been outperforming immensely in the last 15 yrs

  16. And how does this translate to our actual economy? Stocks always seemed like nothing but magic numbers to me.

  17. As an Italian financial advisor I m investing my customers money in funds with majority of stocks in EU market or only EU. In 2024 the proportion was 60-40 USA, now it’s 70-30 Europe.

  19. It is easy to have big percentual growth when you come from the very bottom. Still good tho.

  20. The USA is on its way out.

    Europe is ascendant politically, economically (as the euro replaces the dollar), and eventually militarily.

  22. Capital market growth is nice, but ordianary people do not feel it.

  23. > Spain and Germany emerge as leaders

    the new Hapsburg empire is rising

  24. Great, now look at the IBEX vs. the S&P over the last five and ten years.. Not even worth discussing.

  25. Ah, yes, Spain’s extraordinary performance of retuning to 2008 valuations: [https://imgur.com/a/ofgiSPZ](https://imgur.com/a/ofgiSPZ)

    Cherry picking data just to make yourself feel better won’t solve your problems. We need to be honest with ourselves if we actually want to close the gaps to America’s dominance in business.

  31. Tariffs are self-imposed sanctions. Putin, Xi, Kim and at least one Ayatollah are laughing their asses off.

  32. What numbers are they using? Dax (Germany) is only up 11%, IBOVESP (Brazil) is only up 11% too…

  33. Yeah don’t mention Poland… we don’t really want to be in the EU anyway 😄

  34. I don’t see how market capitalization is an indicator for a thriving country or economy.

  35. If this is accurate then Canada is doing a better job of staying out of the American gravity-well than a lot of people expected it to.

  36. Poor Taiwan gets beaten up by both trade with the US collapsing and the military buildup of China
