The IBOSS Investment Team are joined by Mark Sherlock, Head of US Equities and Lead Portfolio Manager, at Federated Hermes Limited.
For most of the last 20 years, though not since 2018, the valuations of the US mid and small-cap indices have been higher than the S&P 500, but currently they trade on a near-record discounts.
However, the argument for mean reversion is compelling and valuations are relatively cheap, therefore, there are some attractively valued investment opportunities in the small mid-cap space. But, is now a good time to get involved and invest for the long term, or is more patience required for investors due to macro-economic and geo-political factors?
