FYI: Value stocks of U.S. large-cap companies typically show favorable returns, and their performance may outpace that of their growth counterparts. Because companies of value stocks tend to be less profitable and show lower growth, investors demand higher rates of return to hold these equities. However, investors need a lot of patience to realize profits on value stocks since it may take years until the stocks' market prices catch up with their intrinsic worth. Investors who wish to obtain exposure to value equities and take advantage of the passive investing approach can do so by buying reasonably priced index mutual funds that specialize in investing in value stocks.
