Market breadth is experiencing a historic improvement:
66% of S&P 500 stocks are outperforming the index year-to-date, the highest since data began in 1986.
The percentage has more than DOUBLED from the extreme concentration seen in 2023, 2024, and 2025, when only 29%, 29%, and 31% of stocks beat the index, respectively.
This is an even stronger reading than during the 2000 Dot-Com bubble burst in 2000-2002.
This means 332 of the S&P 500 members are exceeding the +0.7% YTD gain of the index.
Interestingly, Nvidia, NVDA, is the only stock from the Magnificent 7 gaining more than the benchmark so far this year.
Market leadership becoming slightly broader.(The Kobeissi Letter)
