Yes I didn't make any claims about this fact.

My post was in response to the prior poster's claim that US exceptionalism here doesn't have a clear rationale, and that one might expect some sort of "reversion to the mean" where "mean" there is the performance of broad equity markets in other countries.

In my post, I'm saying that one shouldn't expect that broad markets indices to grow comparably in other countries, and the fact that they don't says little about how well they do/should/will perform in the US.
