Above Ad by Capital Group (American Funds) claims the five stock funds they had in existence when S&P500 Index started outperformed significantly.
I know from what I read here that this is highly unlikely, although as an AmFd investor I'm happy to see this claim.
I'm looking forward to learning from the investors here "what's the catch".
Summary of claim (very short video): from 8/31/76-12/31/17 a Blend of 5 funds beat the index by growing $10,000 to $1.4mm vs $780k, $620,000 or about 80% more. Funds used and their returns are listed.
Table in Ad shows last 10 years performance. The Blend is slightly less return than S&P but with slightly less Standard Deviation.
Thanks in advance for your input.
