Why I’ve been increasing my international allocation in 2026

Hey, for a long time I was heavily overweight US stocks (**mostly S&P 500 and Nasdaq**) However, over the past year I’ve been gradually increasing my international exposure, bringing it up to around **25-30%** of my equity portfolio. Reasons are pretty straightforward: * US valuations remain significantly higher than most developed and emerging markets * Dollar strength appears to be peaking * Better growth outlook in certain international sectors (especially Europe and parts of Asia) It’s not about abandoning the US market, but about rebalancing risk when one region becomes too dominant and expensive. Curious if any experienced investors here have been doing the same or if you’re still keeping heavy US bias
