Dion Hershan: Beyond the ASX giants

The market has changed. The opportunity hasn’t.

2 Apr 2026

In this presentation at the recent Advisers Big Day Out, Dion Hershan (Head of Australian Equities) explains why the dominance of the ASX 20 is creating both risks and opportunities, and details how investors can position for the next phase of growth.

With the top 20 stocks accounting for ~60% of the ASX 200, most Australian portfolios are more concentrated than investors realise, and passive inflows are deepening that concentration each day. The stocks overlooked as a result tend to offer better valuations, less crowding and more room to grow. As Dion explains, the mid-cap and small-cap segment has historically been “the sweet spot for returns”, and the gap between index leaders and the rest of the market is widening.
