Everything But America? Give It Time.

Only On The Walters Post

The market’s been jittery, and if you listen to the so-called experts, they’ll tell you the U.S. is losing its edge. Investors are running toward foreign markets, and the headlines scream that America is on the decline. They’re calling it Everything But America—EBA for short. But if you ask me, this isn’t the first time we’ve heard this song, and it sure won’t be the last.

Stocks are down in the U.S., sure. But what people forget is that downturns don’t last forever. The economy moves in cycles, and if history’s any guide, we’re just in one of those lulls before the next big climb. Investors chase trends, but when the dust settles, they come back to what works. And like it or not, America still works.

With Trump back in charge, you can bet he’s going to do what he does best—push business forward. Love him or hate him, the man knows money, and he understands that a strong economy keeps him in favor. His tariffs might make people nervous, but let’s not kid ourselves—trade negotiations are just that: negotiations. The goal is always to come out on top, and the U.S. has a habit of doing just that.

Then there’s the talk about tech stocks losing steam. Overvalued? Maybe. But written off entirely? Not a chance. Silicon Valley didn’t build itself overnight, and it’s not going anywhere. Tech might be going through a rough patch, but industries rise and fall like tides. Meanwhile, other sectors, like manufacturing, energy, and defense, stand to gain under policies that favor American production. So don’t be surprised if we see a shift in where the big money flows.

If the big investors want to take their money elsewhere for now, let them. It won’t be long before they come knocking again.

So, is this Everything But America trend the new normal? Not likely. Give it time. The markets always have a way of proving the doomsayers wrong.
