Capital is rotating into European equities, with one widely held Europe ETF up 23% over twelve months as investors seek diversification away from a heavily concentrated US index complex. The move is being driven by relative valuation, improving earnings breadth and developed-market flows tracked by broad ex-US vehicles such as SPDW.
