The Market’s New Systemic Risk

(New York)

Any seasoned market veteran will tell you that today’s hottest thing might very well turn into the epicenter of tomorrow’s crisis. Tech stocks led to the Dotcom crash, structured credit led to the Financial Crisis. Now ask yourself, what is the hottest product of the moment? The answer is simple: ESG stocks. ESG is nebulous as an asset class since it crosses many boundaries, but in reality, a lot of the new ESG AUM has flowed directly into large cap tech stocks. This means that a lot of the buying going on in large cap tech is just de facto ESG buying.


FINSUM: ESG is a surging category and a lot of Dollars are flowing in. Since the term and its actual meaning are still vague, a lot of the money flows into tech, which is almost universally seen as ESG friendly. When might the music stop?

Are ESG Stocks in a Bubble?

(New York)

There has been rising anxiety of late that the growing assets in ESG stocks have created a valuation bubble in the most popular shares in the category. The idea is that rush into ESG has funneled a ton of capital into a relatively small group of shares, “artificially” inflating valuation. However, the Financial Times argues that there is definitively no bubble in these stocks. In fact, they are not valued any more richly than any average basket of shares. Overall, the average PE ratio of a global basket of ESG stocks is the same for an average basket of all stocks: 14x.


FINSUM: This is actually quite a relieving study, as there have been some very lofty AUM growth figures thrown around lately for ESG. And in case you are nervous, the same metrics/comparison listed above also hold for US/domestic ESG stocks.
