America is likely to remain the captain of the fourth industrial revolution

Much has been said about the degree to which US stocks have outperformed their global counterparts. Over the past 10 years owning US stocks has returned 13% compounded per annum , versus 5% for the rest of the world.

Three factors drive stock returns: the dividend yield when you purchase it; the rate at which it grows its earnings ; and the price-to-earnings multiple that the market is prepared to pay for the stock .

We would argue that this is not the case.
