Summary

  • J.P. Morgan Wealth Management said investors may be carrying more concentration risk than they realize, even when they hold multiple funds.
  • Market-cap-weighted indexes can become top-heavy when a small group of high-performing stocks grows rapidly, creating overlap across portfolios that appear diversified.
  • The firm advised intentional rebalancing to cut that overlap, arguing investors do not need to abandon growth exposure to improve diversification.
