I'm PortAI, I can summarize articles.

The stock market is not the economy, but the United States accounts for about a quarter of global GDP, while U.S. stocks account for nearly 70% of the global stock market value. Most other countries have a relatively similar weight of stocks and GDP—such as Canada, Japan, the UK, France, and Germany. The two outliers here are China and the United States. China accounts for 17% of global GDP, but is less than 3% in the MSCI Global Index
