In case it needed to be pointed out

In the period I am eyeballing (1946-2018) the UK has not once had a leading growth year. - Correct me if I am wrong? This market should be <5% if it was not propped up by one user

Highest as a % or highest in absolute terms?

@NikitaSokolsky Highest as a percentage.... So one way to read the outcome may be that the UK market completely tanks in 2026 and discovers fusion toward the end of the year, propelling the economy stratospherically in 2027

@ChristopherSchrader Thanks, bought 100 shares of NO then. There's ~40 countries in Europe, the odds of any single one of them having the highest GDP growth as a % from previous year is pretty low.
