Who Wins ‘Passive vs. Active’ Institutional Debate? : U.S. Large Cap Blend Part 1.
FYI: Advisors and investors alike hear all the time in various articles, speeches and interviews that passive investment funds (indexes) always outperform active investment funds (non-indexes). In my view, however, I’ve found that most articles written on the subject rarely provide precise “apples to apples” comparisons, much less an all-institutional dialogue about true data.
