My guess is that it's driven by multiple inflation.

Prior to August 2018, there were no trillion dollar companies, now there are at least 5 (MSFT, AMZN, AAPL, Aramco, Google) and more on the way.

This observation seems more likely to be driven by Aramco not being a public company before 2018 than by Aramco not existing before 2018.

Just because it's a little harder to see something doesn't mean it isn't there.

Sure there’s multiple expansion, but also significant earnings growth...
