Here's a statement of the obvious: The opinions expressed here are those of the participants, not those of the Mutual Fund Observer. We cannot vouch for the accuracy or appropriateness of any of it, though we do encourage civility and good humor.
FYI: BofA Merrill Lynch and S&P (SPIVA) have each recently reported the outperformance of active management versus market-cap-weighted indices so far this year. With record-low volatility and low stock correlations, some are proclaiming the return to favor of active management after years of suffering outflows to passively run index funds.
