ETF outperform hedge fund and S&P 500 according to Vanguard founder
A while ago I posted this video below. I wanted to add the following articles that came out to prove that ETFs are the way of the future for trading individuals. No more betting with individual stocks or underperforming alternative funds.
“There is deep disenchantment with hedge funds among large investors. People have been paying extremely high fees for very poor performance — performance even a zero fee wouldn’t justify….

Pension funds in US states including Illinois, New York, Kentucky and Rhode Island, have eliminated or reduced their holdings. The largest US public pension fund, Calpers, announced in 2014 that it was withdrawing entirely after concluding hedge funds were too expensive and complex.

“Trade union trustees on the boards of public pension plans on both sides of the Atlantic have been pushing for ETFs while stock markets have set record highs. They believe that unless and until hedge funds regain their mojo, ETFs are a better, simpler and cheaper alternative.”

Warren Buffett, the billionaire investor and an outspoken critic of fund managers who profit from high fees at the expense of their clients, bet in 2007 that a Vanguard S&P 500 index fund would beat five funds of hedge funds selected by Protégé Partners, an investment company, over the next 10 years.
Also remember that Vanguard is driven by HFT technology as well

The best part of this while argument are there are morons in these industry who think otherwise. It is time they get it together to fully understand small alternative funds either need tp perform or will be shutdown as more institutional funding will go towards performing ETF firms like Vanguard and Blackrock.

For the very first time, I’m reviewing my last set of trades which have been utterly underperforming compared to the S&P 500. Well it is time to do something about it. So I started focusing on ETFs where I have gone on and on about the benefits of them.
Click here if you like to see what I have been trading and what I’m swapping them for.
After last few set of videos while researching how ETFs perform against individual stocks, I have come to the conclusion that ETFs will make life much easier if you intend to buy and hold. I have randomly chosen a high-performing market sector but you’ll see that ETFs will make better results in the long run. I find stocks too volatile to manage as a human.
