Investing - Theory, News & General • International (Non-US) versus US Equities (The "Arguments")

Those that are 100% US are literally banking everything on US outcomes outperforming.
Some of them don't have the objective of outperforming someone else. Maybe they're not interested in the horse race aspect of it. I'm not.

You can assume so, but you know what they say about "assume"....
U.S. doesn't even have to outperform. It could just be similar, which is why some people conclude "why bother?" for international.
Problem is you’ll never know if it will be similar. You could be wrong. History shows long stretches of dissimilar returns. Over a long enough horizon they tend to all do well. But sometimes we’re not fortunate to win the roll of the dice on our individual sequence of returns.
