Investors should prefer the Canadian TSX Composite benchmark index in 2024 to the S & P 500 , according to Bank of America. Last year, while inflation was moderating, the TSX underperformed the S & P 500 by 16 percentage points. However, the Canadian index beat the S & P 500 in 2022 when inflation was investors' prime concern. According to FactSet, the P/E currently stands at 15.75x, lower than the 20.28x of the S & P 500. Canadian investors can access the index through the near-identical iShares Core S & P/TSX Capped Composite Index ETF and BMO S & P/TSX Capped Composite Index ETF .
