Episode overview

Now that the dust has settled following the US election, we’re looking at why investors’ focus will gravitate back to the dynamism of the US ability and the ability of its listed companies to deliver on earnings.

We further discuss the drivers that contributed to relatively solid company earnings and why US companies have, on average, outperformed global peers.

We do highlight the risks associated with investing solely in US equities, which include high valuations (making the market too expensive) and the possibility that the US government continues to accumulate debt at an alarming rate.
