Investing only in U.S. stocks? It might be hurting your portfolio
Investors are encouraged to diversify as there are lots of opportunities abroad.

Hear of the investing phenomenon of home-country bias? It’s pervasive across time and geography, and it can be very damaging to your investment portfolio if ignored.
