Money is leaving the United States🌍

May 1, 2025

Today's number is... -0.87%

Out of the seven global regions I track, only one showed a negative return in April, the United States, which was down -0.87%.

Here’s the chart:

Let's break down what the chart shows:

  • The red bars show the April performance for each of the seven global regions
  • The blue bars show the year-to-date performance for each of the seven global regions

The Takeaway: The United States has been the last place that you wanted to be invested in this year. And the data shows this. 

The global shift in leadership is starting to take hold in 2025.

Money moves to where it's treated the best, and right now, that's not in the United States.

This is what we call global rotation.

Yet many people overlook the opportunities it presents due to their biases toward their home country or simply because they are unaware of it.

In April, only one of the seven regions I track showed a decline: the United States, which was down -0.87%

And the United States is the only region with a negative year-to-date return, down over -5%.

In contrast, Europe Ex-UK has taken the leadership role in 2025, boasting an impressive year-to-date return of over 18% and of 4.6% in April.

This rotation doesn't mean the world is falling apart…. It signifies that money is just flowing elsewhere. 

Do you think the United States will continue to underperform throughout the rest of 2025?

What are your thoughts?

Let me know!
