It's really not hard to grasp why it would spread quickly. This virus harbors in the respiratory system of an infected patient. The viral infection invades cells and releases more of the virus. This is so contagious because: 1. Every

Also this Nadella period coincided with a massive rise in passive investing and buyback of shares. Investors are buying the stock because it’s one of the largest in the indexes weighing in at nearly 5% of the SP 500 market cap. Because of

Why does it have to be just a recession with rebound a few years later? I’d argue many are thinking too positive following 2008 where everything will go back to normal and prices will rally to all time highs. The US economy almost blew up

It’s a huge stretch to say the S&P 500 isn’t the current top 500 stocks by market cap just because they don’t include several recent IPOs and have discretion to exclude stocks based on potential stock manipulation. These are very rare

The S&P 500 is basically a group of largest established 500 market cap stocks traded in the US proportioned to market cap. There is no active management determining price and weights here.
