13. Just 7 cos. carrying the S&P500! PE ratio of S&P7 comprising Apple Inc., Alphabet Inc., Meta Platforms Inc. Microsoft Corp., NVIDIA Corp., Amazon.com Inc. and Tesla Inc is 45 vs just 19 for the rest 493.
The PE ratio of the magnificent 7 now sits at 45.
At the PEAK of the nifty 50 bubble in the 70s, the average PE ratio for the set of mega caps was at just 41.
This also puts the mag7 at a worse equity risk premium than what was seen in the Nasdaq 100 at the top in 2000. pic.twitter.com/00lc5ksleD

17. 75% of debts of companies in S&P 500 is fixed. Reason why they are largely unaffected by the rate hikes.

22. Compared to S&P500 companies, Russell 2K companies in for greater debt rollover shocks in the short-term.
Debt rollover risks are far greater in the short-term for Russell 2k companies than for large caps.
And of course there are a lot more small caps operating with negative cash flow than large caps, so they may not even get to this maturity point. pic.twitter.com/yyOfaHYtT6
