The giants of the U.S. economy are absolute cash machines.
Here’s their TTM (trailing-twelve-months) net income (and Y/Y growth): $AAPL: $94B (-3%) $NVDA: $63B (+234%) $MSFT: $91B (+17%) $AMZN: $50B (+148%) $GOOG: $94B (+41%) $META: $56B (+87%) $TSLA: $13B (+18%) $BRK.A: $107B (+39%)* $TSM: $33B (+16%) $AVGO: $5B (-63%) *Note: Berkshire's net income includes unrealized gains from its massive investment portfolio. These 10 alone earned $606B this year. Will they continue to grow their profit at similar rates moving forward?
How will this end?

The Stoxx Europe 600 index has underperformed the S&P 500 by 21% this year, the most on record.
This comes as European stocks have returned only 3% year-to-date much below the 24% gain of US stocks. The Stoxx Europe 600 index is now on track for its 8th year of underperformance out of the last 10. Over the last decade, European equities have increased by just 50% much less than the S&P 500 return of 187%. As a consequence, the US stock market is now 4 TIMES larger than Europe. Investors are choosing the US over Europe. Source: FT, The Kobeissi Letter
