The concentration paradox: Why fewer drivers demand a broader perspective

The AI boom — and more specifically, the surge in hyperscaler data centers — seems to have become the primary driver of global financial markets, creating some potential diversification challenges.

More broadly, we are finding value in municipal bonds and real estate, which are continuing to enjoy growing tailwinds.
