- Among constituents, 58% were more than 20% below their individual peaks; 40% had fallen more than 30%.
- The equal-weighted S&P 500 fell 1.8% year-to-date, versus a 10.4% gain for the market-cap-weighted index.
- The divergence creates opportunities for value investors able to distinguish falling share prices from deteriorating businesses.
