Nothing Lasts Forever

Those who follow equity markets closely will be under no illusions about where the place to be has been in recent years.  The US equity market has handily trounced all-comers.  For US domestic investors who often have little overseas exposure, this has been great news.  However, it has also been good for non-US investors who adopt a global approach to investing.  The US makes up a huge part of the investing universe for global mandates and hence non-US investors have benefitted significantly.
