Simon follows up on recent forecasts from several prominent investment firms for subdued S&P 500 returns over the coming decade. He echoes their concern around market concentration and suggests the "average stock" could perform much better than in recent years, especially relative to the broad market averages. He offers the same could potentially be true for bonds as they try to emerge from their largest drawdown in 150 years. Diversifying away from U.S. Large Cap Growth may actually start to help portfolio returns. He also examines recent quarterly results from ABBV, GOOGL, MSFT and V.
