Staying the course: Active vs. Passive AzRunner  11-14-2006, 10:20 PM | Post #2277922

In my investment experience I have found it easier to stay the course with my index funds vs. my actively managed funds. I find the set and forget approach easier when my index funds are tracking a benchmark compared to my previous actively managed funds that needed checking on a regular basis to see how they were doing against their benchmark.

I agree with CC that every investor needs to find that comfort zone. My experience with trying to find winning funds more often than not had me in yesterday's winners. Meanwhile the index funds just kept slogging along. Now I just keep tabs on my M* style box to see that I am maintaining my AA according to my plan.
