They also argue that five widely cited justifications for the extreme premia paid today for growth over value are, in fact, misconceptions that risk leaving investors overexposed to highly popular and highly priced individual stocks. "Furthermore, to the extent investors maintain permanent allocations to U.S. equities, given the protracted, more-than-decadelong run of growth relative to value, it is logical to consider a reallocation of some of that capital away from growth and into value," Messrs. Checcone and Ear write.
