Hidden risks of index funds: What investors should know
Index funds can be one of the best ways to invest over time because they can provide investors with diversification at low costs, but index funds come with some drawbacks. Although index funds include a wide range of companies, those with a bigger market cap (such as the 'Magnificent Seven') can heavily influence these funds. Investors who wish to limit their exposure to these stocks can buy an equal-weighted index or value-based funds. Index funds are often touted as one of the best ways to invest for the long-term and for good reason. They can offer instant diversification at low costs and largely outperform active funds over the long run. But as a smaller number of companies — called the Magnificent Seven — have come to dominate the stock market and the indexes that track it, some are questioning whether passively managed index funds are truly passive. Here's what you need to know about index funds and the hidden risks your portfolio may be exposed to. The idea behind passive investing is that it is pointless to try to do better than the market averages over time, so the best course of action is to keep your costs low and broadly diversify your holdings. The invention of index funds made it easy to invest based on market indexes such as the S&P 500. Rather than try to identify which stocks will do well or poorly, index funds invest solely based on the underlying index that they track. So if a company comprises 3 percent of the S&P 500, that's how much an S&P 500 index fund will invest in it as well. Because the S&P 500, and many other stock market indexes, are market-cap weighted, the largest companies make up the largest weights in the index and in the funds that track them. That's how the Magnificent Seven enters the chat, creating challenges as these seven large companies have vastly outperformed the broader market and grown to account for a large portion of index fund portfolios. In recent years, seven stocks have come to dominate the major market indexes due to their strong outperformance. Microsoft (MSFT), the largest company in the S&P 500, has a market cap that is about three times that of the sixth-largest company, Broadcom (AVGO). Company Ticker Market cap YTD return Microsoft MSFT $3.57 trillion 14.33% Nvidia NVDA $3.55 trillion 8.35% Apple AAPL $2.94 trillion -21.30% Amazon AMZN $2.26 trillion -3.13% Alphabet GOOG/GOOGL $2.1 trillion -8.33% Meta Platforms META $1.75 trillion 19.01% Tesla TSLA $1.04 trillion -20.25% As the stocks of the largest companies in the S&P 500 have seen mixed performance this year, with some rebounding after declines early in the year, the Magnificent Seven continue to account for even more of the index. These seven stocks make up about 34 percent of the S&P 500 as of June 2025, up from 20 percent in 2023. Investors in S&P 500 index funds may not be getting what they're looking for in a fund, says Nick Ryder, chief investment officer at Philadelphia-area wealth manager Kathmere Capital Management. These investors are typically looking for broad diversification and contribution from many different stocks, but instead they're inherently making a bet on these seven companies, he says. The impact on the Nasdaq 100 Index was so pronounced that a special rebalancing of the index took place in July 2023 to avoid violating diversification rules for the funds that track the index. The seven tech giants accounted for more than 60 percent of the index before the rebalancing took place. Fund Ticker % of fund in Magnificent Seven Date of holdings Fidelity Nasdaq Composite Index Fund FNCMX 52.2% 05/31/2025 Invesco QQQ ETF QQQ 42% 06/17/2025 Shelton Nasdaq-100 Index Fund NASDX 41.2% 03/31/2025 SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust SPY 32.1% 06/17/2025 Vanguard S&P 500 ETF VOO 31.7% 05/31/2025 Ryder says that enthusiasm around artificial intelligence is partially responsible for the outperformance of the largest stocks, while adding that investing based on narratives can be dangerous for investors. 'The problem with narratives is that they tend to be fully reflected in stock prices,' Ryder says. Investors looking to limit their exposure to the Magnificent Seven stocks, while still taking an index-based approach, have a few options. Buy an equal-weighted fund: The first alternative would be to buy an equal-weighted S&P 500 index fund. As the name implies, an equal-weighted fund holds stocks in equal weights, regardless of their underlying market caps. So a $1 trillion company is held in the same proportion as a $50 billion company. You'll still have exposure to the seven largest companies, but it will be dramatically lower than a standard S&P 500 index fund. Buy a value-based fund: Another choice would be to buy value-based funds, such as funds that invest based on metrics like the price-to-earnings ratio. These funds invest in stocks that appear cheap based on quantitative metrics. The Magnificent Seven stocks largely come with premium valuations, so value funds may hold them in reduced weights or not at all. In Kathmere client portfolios, Ryder says they're trying to mitigate the impact of the seven largest companies by making thoughtful adjustments to the S&P 500, while acknowledging it's difficult to outperform a market-cap weighted index over the long-term. 'We're just taking the overall S&P 500 and tilting toward things that are cheap on fundamentals, and away from things that are expensive based on fundamentals,' Ryder said. 'It's not an either-or decision, it's about trying to balance the risks.' Get matched: Find a financial advisor who can help you maximize your investments Are index funds really risky? Index funds are generally not as risky as if you held shares in just one stock. Index funds have broad diversification across many industries and companies, despite the high concentration in tech stocks. However, index funds still carry risk because their value fluctuates based on what's going on in the market. Can index funds go broke? An index fund going broke — as in failing and running out of money — is technically possible, but extremely unlikely as dozens to hundreds of companies would have to fail to make that happen. That said, index funds can see dramatic declines in value during market downturns, like that of 2008. What does Warren Buffett think of index funds? Warren Buffett is generally a fan of index funds as a low-cost way to build long-term wealth for the average investor, especially index funds that track the S&P 500. Buying a low-cost index fund and holding onto it for a long time can allow you to take advantage of the market's growth over time. — Bankrate's Logan Jacoby contributed to an update.

LeddarTech Announces Intention to File under the Bankruptcy and Insolvency Act in Canada
QUEBEC CITY, Canada, June 16, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- LeddarTech® Holdings Inc. ('LeddarTech' or the 'Company') (Nasdaq: LDTC), an AI-powered software company recognized for its innovation in advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) and autonomous driving (AD), today announces that, further to its press release dated June 11, 2025, it intends on making an assignment into bankruptcy pursuant to the Bankruptcy and Insolvency Act (Canada) (the 'BIA'). After careful consideration of all available alternatives, including undertaking a strategic review which was unsuccessful in identifying a suitable acquirer or commercial partner or raising sufficient capital, as well as further to the Company having received a notice of default under its bridge financing offer entered into with certain bridge lenders, the board of directors of the Company has determined that it was in the best interest of the Company and its stakeholders to make an assignment into bankruptcy under the BIA as soon as reasonably practicable. The Company expects that Raymond Chabot Inc., a licensed insolvency trustee, will be appointed as the trustee under the BIA proceedings. In connection with the BIA proceedings, each member of the board of directors of the Company will resign effective upon the assignment under the BIA. As was disclosed in its June 11, 2025 press release, the Company does not expect to resume active operations and cautions investors that there is significant risk that holders of our securities will receive little to no value under the BIA proceedings. Further announcements regarding the status of the Company's BIA proceedings will be made as developments warrant. Additional information with respect to the BIA proceedings will be available in due course on Raymond Chabot Inc.'s website. The Company expects that its common shares and warrants trading on the Nasdaq will be halted as a result of the BIA proceedings. The Company anticipates that it will ultimately be delisted from the Nasdaq.

Wall Street Braces for a $6.5 Trillion Shake-Up -- Will Stocks Break Free Next Week?
A wave of nearly $6.5 trillion in US equity options is about to roll off this Fridaypossibly setting the stage for a new round of stock market turbulence. Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA) and other popular names sit at the heart of this quarterly triple witching event, where index options, single-stock options, and ETF contracts all expire at once. While the expiry itself may not trigger a sharp move on the day, the aftermath could look very different. Rocky Fishman, founder of Asym 500, called this one among the largest ever and flagged the potential for markets to finally break free from the tight range theyve traded in since May. Whats held stocks in check? According to Fishman, a wave of defensive trades earlier this year effectively pinned the S&P 500 around current levels. During Aprils tariff-fueled volatility, many investors bought downside protection while selling upside calls near 6,000 betting the index wouldnt get that high. As those trades expire, that ceiling could lift. Its all tied to how dealers hedge. When markets are in a positive gamma regime, as they are now, dealers tend to smooth volatilitybuying when stocks drop and selling into rallies. But once those positions expire, that cushion may disappear. Some strategists are watching closely. Matthew Thompson at Little Harbor Advisors sees these expiry windows as chances to make volatility plays in his ETF strategies. Citigroup analysts Vishal Vivek and Stuart Kaiser note that triple-witching days usually arent much more volatile than regular monthly expiriesbut this one stands out due to sheer size. Citi estimates $5.8 trillion in contracts are expiring, while Fishman includes additional index futures options to arrive at $6.5 trillion. Either way, the hedging flows that follow could be a key driver of what comes next. This article first appeared on GuruFocus.
