The stock market has become wildly unpredictable — here are 4 simple portfolio tweaks Credit Suisse says will help traders make a killing amid the chaos The stock market has been flipped upside down. Value stocks, which have suffered at the hands of their growth counterparts for most of the 10-year bull market, are suddenly the hot ticket for portfolio managers.

What's resulted is a landscape that looks increasingly foreign to equity investors who have become accustomed to certain circumstances — ones that rewarded growth stocks and the traders who indiscriminately piled into them. While this has been a tough pill to swallow for some investors, there are still plentiful opportunities available to those willing to make the right adjustments.

Overall compensation for equities-focused traditional asset managers is expected to average around $710,000 this year, compared to $490,000 for fixed income-focused managers, according to a survey of more than 1,000 professionals by consulting firms Greenwich Associates and Johnson Associates. But those figures could fall, as markets have moved lower in recent weeks.
