London CNN —The Magnificent 7 tech stocks have been a big part of the extraordinary US market rally.
But there’s a rival group of companies powering European stocks to new heights with even better returns, by some measures.
Dubbed the “Granolas,” those 11 companies accounted for 60% of the gains on Europe’s benchmark stock index over the past 12 months.
They have even slightly outperformed the Magnificent 7 over a longer period, according to Goldman Sachs.
Their standout performance has “raised the issue of concentration effects” in the region’s stock market, says Philip Lawlor, managing director of markets research at Wilshire Indexes.
