Investors need to remember that market see-saws always have two ends

Most importantly, the number of stocks sitting on the rising side of the see-saw has dramatically shrunk. The Magnificent 7 are up 95 per cent this year to Aug. 31 and just those seven companies have contributed a whopping 71 per cent of the S&P 500’s rise in 2023 so far.

However, markets broaden when the profit cycles accelerate because lower-quality and more cyclical companies have greater operating and financial leverage. Using the hackneyed analogy, a rising tide lifts all boats. U.S. small caps, Europe, Japan, China and U.S. themes focusing on real productive assets and the rebuilding of America’s manufacturing capacity all seem particularly attractive.
