- South Korea's index, heavy on tech and new‑industry stocks, became a worldbeater in 2026.
- Canada's index is weighted more toward traditional sectors such as banking.
Why it matters: Tech‑focused investors benefit from South Korea’s surge, while traditional‑sector investors find Canada less attractive as its index lags behind the tech‑driven global leaders.
