US household equity exposure reached a record 48.2% of financial assets in the second quarter, raising risks from unintended portfolio concentration.
Stock holdings gained $10.7 trillion, primarily through price appreciation rather than new buying, pushing portfolios toward greater equity exposure.
Households held $74 trillion in stocks versus $20.3 trillion in deposits and money market funds, challenging expectations for substantial fresh buying.
The wealthiest 10% owned roughly 87% of stocks and stock funds, concentrating vulnerability to a market downturn.
