Where private equity stocks stand now

As of 12 October 2026, Private Equity (PSP) ranks #88 of the 115 groups Zensei tracks by one-month return against the S&P 500. It is losing its lead. It built a 2.6-point advantage over the S&P 500 across the longer, time-shifted window, but over the past month it has slipped 7.7 points behind the market — the Cooling quadrant of the rotation map.

On the shorter tape, PSP's momentum is weakening: the intraday trend that carried the move is cooling across the shorter windows. PSP's relative-strength line has broken below its long-term average — the long-term outperformance trend is no longer intact. Both signals point the same direction here: the market is not rewarding this group on either horizon.

The exposure comes via Invesco Global Listed Private Equity ETF, whose 66 tracked holdings are led by 3i Group, Tpg Inc and Blackstone Inc. Weighted by portfolio, the fund's holdings trade at roughly 19.2× earnings. The thing to watch from here is whether this is a pause or a handoff: cooling groups sometimes reset and reclaim leadership, but a deepening one-month deficit usually means rotation has moved on.
