GMO highlighted the key differences between the Top 10 stocks today and in 2000:

🧵👇🏼

1️⃣ “In 2000, the price-to-earnings ratio of the top 10 was 60x. Earnings had increased by 22% pa in the previous 5 years. Even if the fundamental return expectation of 19% p.a. had been delivered and stock prices held, the top 10’s multiple would have still exceeded 25x by 2005.”
