Chamath Palihapitiya argues that the S&P 500 has become increasingly risky as a handful of tech stocks dominate the index, compromising true diversification.
Palihapitiya emphasizes that when investors buy S&P 500 index ETFs, they're essentially investing in only a few companies while the remaining 490 offer minimal impact.
Warren Buffett advocates for low-fee index funds for the majority, yet the concentration of value in a few tech firms drags the overall risk higher.
With the top 10 companies making up 39.9% of the S&P 500's market cap, Palihapitiya warns that this could lead to significant investor losses.
