It’s true that those historical returns are for the USA market which was expanding dramatically due to demographics. The question is, are there other markets, elsewhere in the world, that might grow more quickly than the USA, because they have a younger demographic?
Personally, I’ve invested into some global equity index funds, under the thought that just because the USA has been so good in the past, doesn't mean it will be so good in the future. But, so far, these global funds haven’t performed that well.
Yup, that is a never ending concept of how much of equity allocation towards International.
