A global stock market index represents the entire world's stocks. Roughly 55 percent of its holdings are US stocks. Roughly 20 percent are European stocks, 15 percent are Pacific stocks, and about 10 percent comprise emerging market stocks. This isn't a strategic composition. It represents a weighting based on something called global market capitalization. For example, if we had the power to sell every single stock market share in the world, about 55 percent of the proceeds would come from US stocks, 20 percent from European stocks, 15 percent from Pacific stocks, and about 10 percent from emerging‐market stocks. That's why a global stock market index holds global shares in these proportions.⁵
