Bank of America's technical analyst, Stephen Suttmeier, analyzed the performance of the iShares Russell 1000 Growth ETF (IWF) and the iShares Russell 1000 Value ETF (IWD), highlighting a significant divergence in their paths. Over the past year, growth stocks, represented by IWF, have outperformed value stocks, represented by IWD, by 20 percentage points, a gap that has widened to nearly 100 percentage points over seven years. The analysis suggests that growth stocks, with top holdings like Microsoft, Apple, and Nvidia, are likely to maintain their market leadership due to their strong performance and sector concentration. Conversely, value stocks, with top holdings like Berkshire Hathaway, JPMorgan Chase, and ExxonMobil, show a more diversified portfolio but lag in performance.
