Since I believe that both managed funds and index funds have their advantages, I happen to own both to edge my bets I suppose. Index funds have the advantage of consistently capturing market returns (which is great in up markets), and the managed funds have the flexibility to reallocate their portfolio to reflect new market conditions (which can give them an edge in down markets). My two main managed funds are VG Wellington and Fairholme.
