Build a Better Path Part One: What's Past is Prologue
In our latest installment of the AB Disruptor Series, we adjust our lens. Instead of zooming into a specific topic, we'll zoom out, assessing the big picture of investing today. Market dynamics have been shifting—and not for the better—among structural headwinds, years of sequential inflation/affordability shocks and recurring geopolitical flare-ups. The challenge for investors? Design portfolios to deliver return paths that make the most of what markets have to offer.

US 2024 Election Outlook: Politics Don’t Matter?
Description: The 2024 US presidential election is still months away and already entrenched as one of the most eventful in the country’s history. What started as a historic contest between the current president and former president has evolved into a flurry of poll-changing, momentum-shifting developments.

The Forgotten Style: Whatever Happened to Value
Today’s investment world has been called a “factor zoo,” but value was arguably the first. With name-dropping candidates from Graham-Dodd to Fama-French to Warren Buffett, the original style, termed an investment “superfood,” earned that label by outpacing growth over the better part of a century. The tide turned for value around the time of the global financial crisis (GFC), with its popularity fading as growth soared. Despite the slump, a lot is happening in the “other half.” At the index level—and more so among industry leaders—dozens of strong growth and market-share stories have largely flown under the radar, judging from asset flows and multiples. It might be time to change that.

The US Banking Transition Accelerates
US banks continue to garner headlines—almost a year removed from the heart of the regional crisis, and with the looming end of the Fed’s program to help stop the bleeding. Commercial real estate’s challenges remain—as does the pressure on banks, which delivered a healthy share of capital. But a bigger story has been afoot: the incredible shrinking US bank sector. Its numbers, which have withered for decades, are the lowest in over a century. The current environment should accelerate that decline, raising multi-trillion-dollar questions: Why? What does it mean for consumers and investors? Listen to the latest episode as we dig in.

Real Estate’s Present & Future, Part 2—the Residential Market
Description: Housing is the biggest asset many of us will ever invest in, and COVID-19 and its related policy decisions caused mass disruption. As mortgage rates plummeted to record lows, refinancing exploded and home values surged. When rates then rebounded to multi-decade highs, housing inventory evaporated. Many of the big storylines in residential real estate today and tomorrow, however, are actually rooted in the global financial crisis (GFC), translating into diverse investment implications.

Real Estate’s Present and Future—the Commercial Market
Real estate is the original asset: a distinct combination of investment potential and utility for businesses and households.

As the economy and markets adapt to a reshaped landscape, how should investors approach the commercial real estate arena? Listen to the latest episode us as we dig in.

How Much is Too Much? $31 Trillion Reasons to Understand the Debt Problem
The common wisdom may say that the impasse will be worked out because the cost of failure is too steep, but at the center of the debate two key questions always emerge as markets monitor the give-and-take: How much debt is actually too much? And what determines when a country reaches that point? In the latest installment of the AB Disruptor Series, Unpacking the Debt Problem, Rick Brink, AB’s Chief Market Strategist, and an expert panel will start with a deep dive into the US debt-ceiling discussions and then look more broadly at the debt question both here and around the world.
