stocks very poor last 10 years

I'm very good at spotting patterns after they've happened, and also at pointing out the handful of managed funds that beat the indexes after they've done so.

As far as figuring it out ahead of time...eh, not so much.

well over the last decade when all is said and done YES, my managed funds beat my index funds. pure fact. will it be that way in the future? beats me but thats why i said the best thing is split your portfolio between both styles.
