Chart of the Day: Unbalanced China

Today’s Chart of the Day from Epic Maps on X which shows the population density of China. It's interesting to note that as of 2021 just under 40% of their population lives on less than $10 a day vs. 2% for the United States.

Shown in the chart below, $100 invested in China 15 years ago would only be worth $156 (red) today vs. the $749 (blue) you would have if invested in the United States’ stock market represented by the S&P 500.
