FYI: Jeremy Siegel is well-known in indexing circles as one of the early promoters of alternatively weighted indexes, particularly dividend-weighted ones. He is, after all, WisdomTree Investments’ senior strategy advisor and owns a 2 percent stake in the company. But The Wharton School professor was an investment guru in his own right long before WisdomTree launched its first ETF, publishing the iconic investment book “Stocks For The Long Run: The Definitive Guide to Financial Market Returns and Long-Term Investment Strategies” in 1994; it’s now in its fifth edition. He also publishes a weekly newsletter and appears regularly in the financial media.
