Canadian stocks have outperformed US stocks this year, but over the long term the US market has historically done better going back at least 10 years.
Canada’s market is heavily weighted toward mining, energy, and banking. The US market is dominated by growth and technology stocks. With this bubble I'm not surprised the US is doing worse. But I think the underperformance of US stocks is more a reflection of sector composition than any fundamental difference in the two countries governments or who the president is.
I know, I am trolling dude.
