Making Money Minute with Ron Hiebert - Great Performers Are Rare
Most of the markets long term gains, come from a very small basket of stocks. Just 1.3% of the companies that trade in the US, account for all the market gains over the last three decades. Outside America it is even more concentrated. There, less than 1% of companies are accountable for all the appreciation. Out of a total sample of 62,000 companies, 811 were responsible for the bulk of net global wealth creation. This makes a great case for buying index funds. Why look for a needle in a haystack - just own the entire haystack.
