The US stock market continues to dominate globally with its nearly $50 trillion valuation, according to Goldman Sachs. This valuation is approximately five times larger than that of mainland China’s market, highlighting the US’s financial preeminence. Other key players in the global marketplace include Japan, Hong Kong, and India.
This dominance was further emphasized when British tech giant Arm opted for a New York listing over London, reinforcing the attractiveness of the US market for global companies. Over the past two decades, the US market has experienced substantial growth, ballooning by 250%. A significant driver of this growth has been the tech sector, which currently constitutes 28% of the overall market.
In comparison, tech sectors in Japan and Europe represent just 13% and 7% of their respective markets. The US’s second-place ranking on the Global Innovation Index, trailing only Switzerland, has played a crucial role in fostering this growth. This ranking indicates a strong and innovative economy that continues to attract investment and drive market expansion.
