Market power returns to professionals as passive investing rises, Mike Bird notes
Passive investing alters market dynamics

Mike Bird, reporter at The Wall Street Journal, comments that the growth of passive investing has shifted advantages toward ordinary investors and away from professionals.

Bird suggests that there may now be efforts to rebalance this dynamic in financial markets.

Bird recently highlighted that news about chip stocks has had minimal effect on broad U.S. equities despite dominating headlines, as detailed in a previous report. He has also focused on market structure issues, including U.S. Treasury buyback plans and concerns over bond maturity risks in his analysis of the bond market. These themes continue to shape his ongoing market commentary.
