Global Equities : Diversifying Ideas for Crowded Markets

Global equity markets have become increasingly concentrated, with performance dominated by a narrow group of sectors and stocks. This concentration presents growing challenges with stretched valuations and US and AI sector exposure.

In this series of highlight interviews, we explore key themes including:

  • Modern Global Income investment
  • Deep value investment opportunities
  • Differentiated growth ideas beyond the AI boom

WCM Investment Management’s Charlotte Sargent sets out:

  • New secular growth themes beyond the AI boom
  • The importance of competitive advantage trajectory
  • Company culture & its impact on financial performance

Artemis’ James Davidson sets out:

  • Market concentration and the need to diversify
  • A modern approach to Global Income Investment
  • Exploring opps in diverse sectors and regions

Schroders’ Simon Adler sets out:
