ARE US STOCKS OVERVALUED ⁉
☢ S&P 500 earnings yield FELL below the 10-year Treasury yield for the 1st time in 22 YEARS. ❗In other words, less risky (theoretically) 10-year Treasury is paying MORE than the S&P 500. ⚠This could imply lower than average forward returns for S&P 500.

Another day, another record: The top 10 companies in the S&P 500 now account for a record 37% of the index.
This percentage officially exceeds peak levels seen during the 2000 Dot-Com bubble by 10 percentage points. Over the last decade, the market concentration has more than DOUBLED. Furthermore, the top 10 stocks alone now have a market cap of ~$18.7 TRILLION. This means that the top 10 stocks in the US now have a combined market cap that is $1 trillion higher than the entire European stock market. Source: The Kobeissi Letter
Fun fact: This was only the 5th time since 1960 that $SPX returned more than 2.5% while simultaneously breaking into an all-time high.
The last time this happened was March 21st, 2000. Source: Tier1 Alpha
