Americans invest almost exclusively in America. In equities, U.S. investors keep 78% of their exposure at home. Norway, Canada, Denmark, Switzerland, Japan all far more diversified across the world. But the real story is in bonds. Look at the bottom half of the chart: The U.S. owns 77% U.S. bonds and barely any foreign debt. Meanwhile: 🇨🇭 Switzerland holds 54% domestic bonds and spreads the rest internationally. 🇳🇴 Norway holds 53% foreign bonds. 🇯🇵 Japan allocates 80% abroad. America is the most concentrated bond investor on earth. Why? Because the U.S. doesn’t need foreign bonds. It is the bond market. The dollar is the world’s reserve currency. U.S. Treasuries are the safest collateral in the global system. Every crisis eventually forces capital to flee back to the American bond market. European pension funds, Asian institutions, oil sovereign funds, Latin America they all hedge their risk using U.S. debt. That creates a feedback loop: foreign demand keeps Treasuries liquid, deep, and stable. But here’s the paradox: This is the privilege that makes American investors lazy. Most countries are forced to diversify internationally. They don’t trust their own central banks, governments, or currencies to protect capital in a downturn. The U.S. investor never had to learn that lesson. So they build portfolios that only work if the last 40 years repeat. If interest rates change structurally… If debt burdens force fiscal tightening… If the dollar loses some share of global trade settlement… If other bond markets become viable alternatives… That concentration risk finally matters. Diversification isn’t about chasing foreign alpha. It’s about not betting your entire future on one country’s political system, monetary policy, and demographic trajectory. You never hedge when you’re comfortable. You hedge when you realize you might not always be. #Investing #GlobalMarkets #FixedIncome #Bonds #Equities #Diversification #Portfolio #Wealth #Finance #Macro #USMarkets

🇭🇳Tomorrow, Hondurans will elect their next president, legislators, and local officials. The presidential election campaign has been plagued by accusations, intrigue, and fears that have increased uncertainty about the various electoral scenarios. The United States has made its interest in the outcome of the election campaign very clear, which has only increased internal tension in the Central American country. More than six million voters will have to choose between the continuity of the progressive LIBRE government, which is committed to a significant state presence, a certain redistribution of wealth, and a foreign policy aimed at Latin American integration; or, on the other hand, a clear shift to the right, the restoration of neoliberalism, and a foreign policy aligned with Washington’s geopolitical interests. 📲 Read more on our website

Amid US threats of an attack on Venezuela, we look back at some of the most infamous chapters in the history of US military invasions in Latin America and the Caribbean. Since the mid-19th century, the United States has had a traditional foreign policy of intervening directly or indirectly in Latin American and Caribbean countries to secure its economic and geopolitical interests, even at the cost of thousands of Latin American deaths at the hands of the US military. 📲 Read the full article on our website.

President Trump is slapping 25% tariffs on all cars imported to the United States, including from our immediate North American neighbors. He’s also placed a 25% tariff on certain parts used to build cars. It’s a decision that will likely supercharge the cost of new and used cars, but it’s also a gift to Tesla, the company run by Elon Musk, his biggest financial supporter in the presidential election. The new tariff regime comes at an auspicious time for Tesla. The company is dealing with the fallout of Musk’s promotion of far-right ideology and his involvement with the unpopular Department of Government Efficiency, which has sparked protests around the world. Tesla has recently relied on promotions and price cuts to boost sales, and yet it still sold fewer EVs in 2024 than it did in 2023 and is off to a rough start in 2025.
