International moat stocks stood out in May by posting strong relative returns, a persistent year-to-date trend. U.S. moats lagged the U.S. market, but continued to remain ahead year-to-date.
The economic principle of the “Network Effect” has risen to the forefront as our world has grown increasingly digital, and can be an important source of a company’s economic moat.
Moat companies in the U.S. were boosted in part by China, while France led the way for international moat companies. Both segments continue to impress thus far in 2017.
