I am often told that an important reason to invest is that the stock market has always gone up in the long run historically. However, this seems to only be the case in the US market. If we look at the Shanghai stock index (for Chinese stocks), for example, the stock market has never recovered to its pre-2008 levels, even though the country was in a phase of rapid growth. If we look at other markets such as FTSE, the growth lags behind that of US significantly, growing only about 33% in the last 25 years. What are the factors that made US stock market perform so well?

Some potential factors I heard about:

- people in other countries have stronger safety net and are less likely to save for retirement using stocks, but if that is the main factor, does that means the US market is just propped up by people's retirement funds?

- different regulations, but what specific regulations account for the difference?
