This Nation's Stock Market Is Outperforming All Others This Year. Should You Invest?
South Korea's stock market is outperforming all other nations this year.
Overview
The U.S. stock market is having a solid year by almost any measurement. The S&P 500 index has climbed almost 12% in 2026, following three stellar years, two of which -- 2023 and 2024 -- saw the index soar more than 23%.
So, if your equity portfolio consists only of U.S. stocks, you're probably pretty happy, considering that the average annual performance for the S&P 500 is around 10%.

But the U.S. bull market isn't the only one on the planet. Far from it. Many nations are enjoying a bullish 2026, and markets in many of them are outperforming the U.S. this year, some of them by a lot.
