“Bigger is better in the stock market these days.” In the S&P 500, the largest group of 50 companies by market cap, was the only group “to have positive returns over the 12 months through June 7” while the group of the 50 “smallest stocks in the index had the biggest losses.” Similarly, the S&P100, which features the largest constituents, “is up more than 17 percent” during 2024, while “the Russell 2000, which tracks the small-cap universe, is up less than 1 percent for the year.”
