EUROPEAN STOCKS OUTSHINE U.S. STOCKS


                              One Chart Shows How European Stocks Are Beating U.S. Peers


                European equities are outperforming their U.S. peers this month for the first time since April, shrinking a discount on valuations that was at a record just a week ago.

                 Although both benchmarks are lower in October as investors weigh the impact of looming U.S. rate increases, the Stoxx Europe 600 Index is beating the S&P 500.

           That’s because valuations in Europe are already depressed after about $50 billion exited the region’s equity funds this year.
