Why investors might think twice about chasing the biggest stocksSusan Langdon
Investors chasing the biggest stocks may want to think twice about doing so. While companies see impressive returns that push them into the top 10 largest stocks by market cap, their performance tends to lag the market soon after. On average, stocks outperformed by 10% in the 3 years before joining the top 10 but underperformed by 1% in the 3 years after. Their underperformance widened to 1.5% below the market after 10 years. Examples like Intel showed much higher returns in the decade before joining the top 10 but underperformed in the following decade.
Emerging markets can provide diversification benefits but have also experienced periods of volatility and performance differences compared to developed markets. Over the long-term from 1988 to 2019, emerging markets outperformed developed international markets with higher annualized returns but also higher risk. However, short-term performance has varied significantly, with emerging markets strongly outperforming or underperforming developed markets by over 30 percentage points in some years. Country-level returns within emerging markets also display wide dispersion, underscoring the importance of diversification. The composition and size of emerging markets has evolved significantly over time, with China now representing over 30% of the emerging market index.
- The document discusses how concentration of the largest stocks in the US stock market is not a new phenomenon, and has occurred periodically throughout history.
- In 1967, IBM represented a larger portion of the market than Apple does today. And in the past, the top 10 stocks have accounted for over 20% of the market.
- Certain companies like AT&T, General Motors, and IBM were consistently among the largest stocks for multiple decades in the 20th century, demonstrating the market's tendency to concentrate in a few large firms.
- While the specific companies may change over time, technological innovation and cutting-edge firms often dominate the market.
The CARES Act: A Simple Summary for InvestorsSusan Langdon
Sweeping legislation to respond to COVID-19 pandemic was cleared by Congress and signed into law on March 27, 2020. The Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (“the CARES Act”) authorizes more than $2 trillion to battle COVID-19 and its economic effects. The law is wide-ranging from support to the health care system’s fight against the coronavirus, as well as direct payments to individuals, expanded unemployment insurance, loans to small and large businesses, and support for state and local governments.
This document provides an overview on retirement investor’s relief in the government’s stimulus bill to help alleviate the financial strains from the coronavirus.
Can Small Cap Stocks Weather the Storm?Susan Langdon
This document summarizes research analyzing whether small cap stocks are well positioned to weather an economic downturn caused by the COVID-19 pandemic.
The research finds that small cap companies' financial characteristics, such as leverage, leading into the crisis were consistent with long-term trends. Historical data also shows no relationship between the rate of small cap company delistings and relative small cap stock performance. While small caps may be more vulnerable operationally, market prices already reflect expectations about future cash flows, including recession impacts. Overall, the research finds that small cap stocks can still deliver higher expected returns even during an economic downturn. Investors are thus advised to maintain a diversified portfolio including small cap stocks.
The document provides recommendations for staying healthy and entertained at home during the disruption caused by COVID-19. It lists free online resources such as national park tours, yoga classes, and opera performances. It also suggests using video conferencing apps to connect with others, getting groceries delivered, and supporting local restaurants. The message aims to help people navigate this challenging time while focusing on well-being.

In a tight labour market, job-seekers gain bargaining power and leverage it into greater job quality—at least, that’s the conventional wisdom.
Michael, LMIC Economist, presented findings that reveal a weakened relationship between labour market tightness and job quality indicators following the pandemic. Labour market tightness coincided with growth in real wages for only a portion of workers: those in low-wage jobs requiring little education. Several factors—including labour market composition, worker and employer behaviour, and labour market practices—have contributed to the absence of worker benefits. These will be investigated further in future work.

Do elements of globalization, such as Foreign Direct Investment (FDI), negatively affect the ability of countries in the Global South to preserve their culture? This research aims to answer this question by employing a cross-sectional comparative case study analysis utilizing methods of difference. Thailand and Cambodia are compared as they are in the same region and have a similar culture. The metric of difference between Thailand and Cambodia is their ability to preserve their culture. This ability is operationalized by their respective attitudes towards FDI; Thailand imposes stringent regulations and limitations on FDI while Cambodia does not hesitate to accept most FDI and imposes fewer limitations. The evidence from this study suggests that FDI from globally influential countries with high gross domestic products (GDPs) (e.g. China, U.S.) challenges the ability of countries with lower GDPs (e.g. Cambodia) to protect their culture. Furthermore, the ability, or lack thereof, of the receiving countries to protect their culture is amplified by the existence and implementation of restrictive FDI policies imposed by their governments.
My study abroad in Bali, Indonesia, inspired this research topic as I noticed how globalization is changing the culture of its people. I learned their language and way of life which helped me understand the beauty and importance of cultural preservation. I believe we could all benefit from learning new perspectives as they could help us ideate solutions to contemporary issues and empathize with others.

Fabular Frames and the Four Ratio ProblemMajid Iqbal
Digital, interactive art showing the struggle of a society in providing for its present population while also saving planetary resources for future generations. Spread across several frames, the art is actually the rendering of real and speculative data. The stereographic projections change shape in response to prompts and provocations. Visitors interact with the model through speculative statements about how to increase savings across communities, regions, ecosystems and environments. Their fabulations combined with random noise, i.e. factors beyond control, have a dramatic effect on the societal transition. Things get better. Things get worse. The aim is to give visitors a new grasp and feel of the ongoing struggles in democracies around the world.
Stunning art in the small multiples format brings out the spatiotemporal nature of societal transitions, against backdrop issues such as energy, housing, waste, farmland and forest. In each frame we see hopeful and frightful interplays between spending and saving. Problems emerge when one of the two parts of the existential anaglyph rapidly shrinks like Arctic ice, as factors cross thresholds. Ecological wealth and intergenerational equity areFour at stake. Not enough spending could mean economic stress, social unrest and political conflict. Not enough saving and there will be climate breakdown and ‘bankruptcy’. So where does speculative design start and the gambling and betting end? Behind each fabular frame is a four ratio problem. Each ratio reflects the level of sacrifice and self-restraint a society is willing to accept, against promises of prosperity and freedom. Some values seem to stabilise a frame while others cause collapse. Get the ratios right and we can have it all. Get them wrong and things get more desperate.

19. When It’s Value vs. Growth, History is on Value’s Side
Third Quarter 2020
Please see the end of this document for important disclosures.
Logic and data provide the basis for a positive expected value premium, offering
a guide for investors targeting higher potential returns. There is pervasive
historical evidence of value stocks outperforming growth stocks. Data covering
nearly a century in the US, and nearly five decades of market data outside the
US, support the notion that value stocks— those with lower relative prices—have
higher expected returns.
Recently, growth stocks have enjoyed a run of outperformance vs. their value
counterparts. But while disappointing periods emerge from time to time, the
principle that lower relative prices lead to higher expected returns remains the
same. On average, value stocks have outperformed growth stocks by 4.54%
annually in the US since 1928, as Exhibit 1 shows.
Some historical context is helpful in providing perspective for growth stocks’
recent outperformance. As Exhibit 1 demonstrates, realized premiums are highly
volatile. While periods of underperformance are disappointing, they are also
within the range of possible outcomes.
We believe investors are best served by making decisions based on sound
economic principles supported by a preponderance of evidence. Value investing is
based on the premise that paying less for a set of future cash flows is associated
with a higher expected return. That’s one of the most fundamental tenets of
investing. Combined with the long series of empirical data on the value premium,
our research shows that value investing continues to be a reliable way for
investors to increase expected returns going forward.
