Navigating Top Heavy Markets: Understanding Equity Concentration Risks
In the latest podcast 🎙 - Neil Williams, Head of LeifBridge Investment Services and Ernst Knacke, Head of Investment Research dive into the issue of top-heavy markets, specifically focusing on the concentration risks and biases within global equity markets.
In the previous year, not having a stake in any of the Magnificent Seven stocks meant potentially missing out on substantial gains. However, as Ernst astutely observes, many investors were inadvertently exposed to these stocks, whether directly or indirectly. This underscores a pressing concern...
Given the outsized influence of a handful of stocks on index performance, what are the ramifications if one of these mega-cap stocks experiences a significant decline in value?
Ernst and Neil delve into the inherent risks of market concentration present across various indices worldwide, drawing comparisons and exploring strategies to capitalize on opportunities while mitigating risk.
