Retail Investors Deliver Strong 2025 Market Returns
6.0
Retail investors produced strong gains in 2025 by aggressively buying market dips, according to JPMorgan, VandaTrack and Bespoke data. They purchased a record $3 billion net on April 3, shifted from single stocks to ETFs — notably GLD — and helped drive higher profit ratios and S&P gains since April 2. The trend signals rising retail influence on market dynamics.
