Not just Nvidia — stop overdosing on US stocks: Opinion

When you invest in the US stock market from India, the Middle East, or anywhere else, you’re doing more than chasing returns. You’re fueling an already well-oiled American machine. Your money drives up US stock valuations, helps American companies grow bigger, and concentrates more wealth into the hands of a select few.

The result? Over the last 10 years, global stock markets added $46 trillion in value. Of that, the US equity market contributed a staggering $36 trillion (78%), while Asia accounted for just 14% and Europe barely scraped 6%, according to LSEG data. (Most of the US gains, of course, can be credited to tech.)
