Less and less listed companies; but big companies are getting bigger...
The number of publicly listed companies in the US has declined by 50% since 1995. Currently, there are just over 4200 public companies in the US. The same trend has been seen in the number of banks in the US which was at 31,000 in 1920 but just 4,000 today. Meanwhile, the top 10% of stocks in the US now reflect ~75% of the entire market. This is, by far, the most concentrated 🇺🇸 stock market since the Great Depression in 1931. Even in the Dot-com bubble of 2001, concentration of the top 10% of stocks peaked at ~72% before the 2008 Financial Crisis, it peaked at nearly 66%. Big companies are indeed getting bigger!
