Is investing in US stock, in general, a good idea atm?

So i am from the EU.
Since i dont trust that *AI investment* will provide (good) returns, while its dominating the stock market(everyone seems to be involved in that "musical chair game"), i am really torn between investing in american stock and keeping my euro cash/invest locally.

On the other hand, the dollar dropped 15% last year, so i would buy at a discount. Its hard to believe, that the whole stock market would drop 15%.
What sections/industries of the american market would you discribe as "secure investment" atm? Tbh i am somewhat worried, that this will all crash and burn. Dragging all the solid parts of the american businesses down by the dollar even further. Or just buy it and hope for a phoenix?
