I may have read it wrong (or have a misunderstanding of how it all works) but I also took away that since passive investment is allocated evenly across the market that investors are not properly pricing risk. I take that to mean, if all investors are diligent then the allocation of capital shouldn’t be equal. Since there is so much capital now in passive it sort of distorts the market for investment dollars (of which public companies are consumers). It’s as though instead of having subprime homebuyers with easy access to capital we now have subprime companies with easy access to capital. Again my understanding of how this all works may be flawed but this is how I interpreted it.
