Aizawa Securities Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Minato-ku, Tokyo; Representative Director and President: Takuya Aizawa; hereinafter "the Company") will host a Web seminar (hereinafter "this seminar") on Sunday, May 24, 2026, inviting a strategist from AllianceBernstein Co., Ltd. (Head office: Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo; Representative Director and President: Kazuko Sakaguchi; hereinafter "AllianceBernstein") to explain trends in the US stock market, which is setting new highs.
May 2026 marks the 20th anniversary since the establishment of the A and B courses of the "AllianceBernstein US Growth Stock Fund" in Japan. This fund aims for sustainable growth of its managed assets by discovering and investing in companies with expected sustainable growth in the world-leading US stock market.
The US stock market has long led global stock markets. Its market size overwhelmingly exceeds others, accounting for more than half of the world's total. Furthermore, while the US working-age population is expected to see a gradual increase, investment in unlisted companies with high growth potential significantly surpasses that in Europe, with $279 billion (2025 actual) compared to Europe's $59.6 billion. It can be said to be a "market that contains many investment opportunities."
In the US, where global innovation converges, this fund selects companies that are expected to maintain and grow dominant market shares long-term due to superior profitability and profit margins from product/service superiority, robust financial health less affected by external environments, and high entry barriers created by these factors, as "high-quality (≒sustainable growth) companies," investing in them from a medium- to long-term perspective to aim for good returns.
In this seminar, we will invite Mr. Kei Takizawa, who has been involved in fund management and investment strategy formulation for numerous funds and currently serves as a strategist at AllianceBernstein, to introduce the company's unique stock selection and investment methods. Furthermore, in a dialogue with Yukihiro Kawanishi, a strategist in our company's Business Promotion Department, we will convey the appeal and outlook of this fund, which celebrates its 20th anniversary and boasts an overwhelming scale.
