FYI: One of the most talked-about investment trends of recent years is the comparative shunning of actively managed stock funds, mainly mutual funds, for their passively managed equivalents, primarily exchange traded funds.
Investors yanked a net $264 billion from actively managed equity funds in 2016, according to investment researcher Morningstar, and put a net $237 billion into the stock market via ETFs and passively managed mutual funds.
