It's already happened the other way.
50% of all S&P 500 growth comes from just 5-companies (Nvidia).
Or said differently, 495-companies can only match what just 5-companies contributed (which Nvidia is 1 of those 5).

This is not news. Market gains generally have always been dragged along by a small percentage of companies: Focusing on aggregate shareholder outcomes, we find that the top-performing 2.4% of firms account for all of the $US 75.7 trillion in net global stock market wealth creation from 1990 to December 2020. Outside the US, 1.41% of firms account for the $US 30.7 trillion in net wealth creation.
My ultimate worry is that Nvidia is becoming so overcooked now that it could pull the whole of the Nasdaq down when it blows, and that won’t be good for any of us.
