India overtakes China in U.S. direct investment
On Wednesday, data released by the U.S. Treasury Department indicated that as of December 2015, 1.8 percent of U.S. foreign equity holdings are in India, increasing from $7 billion in September 2013 to $12 billion in December 2015 (ET). U.S. interests in China stand at 1.6 percent of total American foreign equity holdings, and during the same period direct American investment in Chinese equities has declined from $12.8 billion to $11.1 billion. The average U.S. investor's equity allocation to emerging markets is also substantially lower than in December 2009.
