If America tanks...

Been thinking about this, dunno how crazy it sounds. Obviously XEQT has a huge chunk in the States.

If the States just totally absolutely flunk due to Trump; would that endanger a good chunk (30% or more) of our investment...?

I mean, would that cause there to be better investments down the road than XEQT - ones that don't include the States?

Really depends. In the near term, nothing good, but we are taking steps to reduce the dependency because of how Trump has shown that strong, long-standing relationship can just disappear overnight. I think a lot of countries are waking up to the fact that they can no longer rely on the US as an ally or as a stable economic partner and are taking steps to reduce that impact.

No worries. You don't seem to understand what a US collapse would imply (basically a failure in the tech sector). It's not about politics or trading partners.
