Assuming Us has round 300k population.

My understanding: lets say whole market is worth 1Gz, i.e. sum(share*sharePirce) over (all shares in all companies) is 1 gadzilion, so 10% of population (30k) combined own 0.93 gadzilion. While the rest (270k), share 0.07 Gz of market.

on avg per person 0.93/30=0.031Gz 0.07/270=0.00025Gz

(On average, poorer 9 deciles are poorer by a factor of two)
