The calculations reflect the market cap of the S&P Global Broad Market Index which tracks more than 11,000 stocks across 50 markets. Not all-encompassing, but a good start.

To add some numbers to the chart, the US represents

  • 73% of IT
  • 65% of Health care
  • 51% of Real Estate and
  • 44% of Financials 

China is closing in fast on some of these sectors, but the U.S. is still the world leader.
