Thanks Anil - not surprising to see US equities leading in this environment. The reasons with all indices considered are many and complex; but the extent of the decoupling suggests aggregate flows are fleeing ex-US and chasing into quality at all-time highs. On this point the divergence between the SPX and DAX is noteworthy.
