The Lead - Top Valuations

- Over the past 12 months, our benchmark, the Russell 1000® Value Index, is up +29.5% as of November 30, 2024. If this year-over-year gain holds, it may be the best year for the Russell 1000 Value in over a decade.
- What is interesting to us is that the return thus far in 2024 has been concentrated in the largest holdings in the index.
- Where do we stand in terms of overall valuation for the index where these top companies reside?
- We provide an update and observations.
