I saw something that showed the top 3 companies (by market cap) outperformed the entire market quite substantially, going back to like 1980 or something. It was a Reddit post so don't @ me. Seems to jive with Cramer's advice.


ETA: Here's a quote from Buffett at the shareholder's meeting

quote:

“In my view, for most people, the best thing to do is owning the S&P 500 index fund,” Buffett said at Berkshire’s annual meeting. “If you bet on America and sustain that position for decades, you’d do far better than buying Treasury securities, or far better than following people ... Perhaps with a bias, I don’t believe anyone knows what the market is going to do tomorrow, next week, next month, next year,” Buffett said.

Was it the same 3 companies over that time period? Would you just buy/sell as market share changed?
