Only 30% of the SP500 stocks have outperformed the index year-to-date.
This is slightly higher than the 29% that occurred in 2023. Since 1990, a streak of 2 consecutive years with such a low percentage has happened only during the 2000 Dot-com bubble.

A few stocks are driving the entire market. Source: The Kobeissi Letter, Richard Bernstein Advisors
