S&P 500 lags as foreign markets outperform for first time

The S&P 500 has fallen 6% since Donald Trump's inauguration, marking the first time U.S. stocks have lagged behind international markets in years. Investors are withdrawing funds from the U.S. and shifting their focus to foreign stocks. European and Asian markets are seeing gains, with Germany's Dax index up 10% and China's Hang Seng Index rising over 20%. Mexico's IPC index has also increased by 5%, benefiting from economic stability. Investor sentiment has shifted, with $2.5 billion withdrawn from U.S. stock funds recently. This comes after a strong inflow of nearly $100 billion into U.S. stocks earlier this year.
