JPMorgan Asset Management's Isabel Alicia Schnabel nails it: U.S. equities priced for perfection.
The businesses? Exceptional. The problem? Price.
You can own the best companies in the world and still lose money if you overpay. Valuation isn't a suggestion—it's the difference between compounding wealth and waiting a decade to break even.
Next five years? Expect slimmer returns. Markets don't reward perfection pricing. They punish it.
Great stocks at terrible prices are just terrible investments with good stories attached.
