Value stocks are outpacing growth at levels last seen in 2022

MarketWatch says value is gaining on growth at a pace rarely seen outside major market downturns, but it is happening in the current bull market.

Value stocks are pulling ahead of growth stocks by a margin that has not been seen in recent years, according to MarketWatch.

The outlet notes that the last time value beat growth by this much was in 2022, a year linked to the prior major bear market.

MarketWatch frames the current pattern as a twist, with the value lead appearing during a bull market rather than a downturn.
