Summary
Are index funds still safe? As the AI boom reshapes the market, nearly 40% of the S&P 500 is now concentrated in just 10 companies. In this episode, Bob Fraser, Ben Fraser, and Ellis Hammond, break down what this historic concentration means for investors, what history can teach us about today's AI-driven market, and why great companies don't always make great investments.
