Fu Peng, chief economist at New Huo Group, said on Oct. 20 that the current U.S. equity market, represented by the S&P 500, shows a clear combination of market-cap concentration and severe divergence in market breadth. According to his remarks, heavyweight blue-chip stocks have kept broad indexes looking calm with support from passive flows and crowded positioning, while most stocks across the market have already gone through deeper technical pullbacks. He said market breadth is now close to an extreme threshold, and the suppression in volatility could break at any time. The comments point to a gap between index-level resilience and weakness beneath the surface of the broader market.
