Suze Orman’s “Hottest Take” on Investing — Is She Right?
GoBankingRates, Sept 2025

“Suze generally does the best she can and I have no doubt her advice here is well-intentioned,” said Sloane Ortel, founder and chief investment officer at Ethical Capital. “There’s a strong factual basis to her contention that a small number of stocks is likely to produce the majority of long-term returns.”
To illustrate, more than half of stocks had negative cumulative returns from 1925 to 2023, according to a S&P Global Market Intelligence Report. On the surface, this supports the idea of focusing on currently compelling opportunities. But dig a little deeper and you’ll see that the stocks with the highest cumulative returns primarily achieved this through consistent, modest annual returns over time (13.47% on average).
“It’s likely wiser to seek companies with well-established growth trajectories. In other words: avoid taking speculative positions based on vibes, which is what most individuals would be doing by taking advice from a nice lady on TV,” Ortel said.
