Capital at risk
US equities
The US is a wonderfully innovative but surprisingly inefficient market, producing more growth companies than anywhere else. We aim to find you its exceptional opportunities.
Why invest in US growth equities?
Only a small handful of companies matter. Remarkably, just 90 out of nearly 26,000 firms listed in the US stock market created half the $35tn of gains made between 1926 and 2016. Putting your cash in a savings account would have given you a better return than holding the average company. It makes a nonsense of the efficient-market hypothesis that stocks trade at fair value. Instead, exceptional growth companies drive long-term market returns. Technological progress should ensure this continues.

We have over a century’s experience backing US innovation. Today, more than 40 analysts from across the firm feed ideas to our US equities teams, providing a global perspective.
