The Hong Kong-based Hang Seng \u2013 used as a proxy for China \u2013 was in negative territory with a -11.36% total return, equivalent to -2.39% per annum.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, the degree to which the US market\u2019s performance has been carried by technology companies is captured by the more concentrated Nasdaq 100 index, which has a lot of crossover with the S&amp;P 500. It delivered a total return of 161.73% over the same time period, or 21.28% on an annual basis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Rob Burgeman, senior investment manager at RBC Brewin Dolphin, said<\/strong>: \u201cOn the face of it, the US market has done much better than any of the other indices. But, if you look under the bonnet you can see that has largely been concentrated around a limited number of companies. In fact, recent research has pointed to the fact that more US companies are reaching 12-month lows than are hitting 12-month highs. Most are delivering similar returns to equivalent businesses in other countries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cTech has done remarkably well and the sector\u2019s products have become even more integral parts of our lives over the past five years, through trends like hybrid and remote working. The large increases to the share prices of these companies have been based on strong growth, cashflow, and profitability \u2013 these are seriously large and impressive businesses, and it is difficult to see that changing.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThere seems to be no obvious catalyst for markets beyond the USA to narrow the gap. When the Covid-19 pandemic began five years ago, many people thought China going into it first would mean its economy would recover more quickly than others. However, it has struggled with demographic challenges, a crisis-hit real estate market, government intervention in the tech sector, and the more draconian lockdown measures that were put in place over a longer period of time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cEurope\u2019s problems also look unlikely to change in the short to medium term, which partially explains why share prices have not been so cheap for some time. The political situation is difficult in several countries and decision-making processes have become a bit sclerotic, as a result. And, other than a few notable exceptions like ASML, there are no real leaders in the tech industry based in Europe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cMeanwhile, the UK has had its own set of issues, not least the structure of the FTSE 100. The main index is well-known to largely be made up of energy companies, financials, miners, and pharmaceuticals \u2013 all of which have their own challenges to contend with and seem unlikely to provide the huge growth that tech can.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe renaissance of Japan is potentially the most noteworthy surprise from the main indices. After around 25 years of going nowhere, the Nikkei has had a better last five years, helped largely by government intervention. The tricky aspect of investing in Japan, however, has been the weakness of the yen, which has eaten away at returns for those who have not properly hedged. It feels safe to say, though, that the Japanese stock market is unlikely to slip back into the funk that characterised 1990-2015.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cLooking ahead, it is difficult to see the big tech companies that have driven markets since the pandemic being dislodged \u2013 if anything, they will likely only continue to grow. Even if some of them are broken up, the general consensus seems to be that it could prove positive for shareholders in some instances. Likewise, given how multinational they are, regulation might be difficult to enforce, even in the USA.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWhat we could see in the next five years is the rise of AI broadening out to other sectors. For example, utilities will likely see a lot more investment in the next few years, given how energy-hungry AI and its infrastructure is. As more data centres are required, companies that provide the wiring, cooling, and hardware should see demand for their products and services rise. There are also big changes afoot in emerging markets like Brazil and Argentina, while China\u2019s malaise has been to India\u2019s benefit \u2013 so other opportunities could unfold.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Disclaimers<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The value of investments, and any income from them, can fall and you may get back less than you invested.
