U.S. Stock Market Rally Masks Growing Disparities and Risks
TL;DR Summary
The U.S. stock market is experiencing a rare and concerning phenomenon known as 'bad breadth,' where more stocks are falling than rising despite the S&P 500's continued climb. This situation, not seen in over 20 years, is reminiscent of the period around September 11, 2001. While megacap technology stocks are currently offsetting broader market weakness, the narrow market breadth is causing investor anxiety. Historically, such weak breadth has coincided with significant market downturns, raising concerns about potential future declines.
