FYI: U.S. stocks fell about 5.26 percent in 2018. It was their first losing year in almost a decade. But now, it looks like U.S. stocks are back. From January 1 to June 4th, 2019, they gained about 13 percent.
By comparison, international stocks are increasingly looking like a hapless baseball team of has-beens that can’t seem to score a run. Long gone, are their heady days of 2001 to 2008, when they gained 94.41 percent. The struggling U.S. market gained about 34.31 percent over that same time period.
