I am a value RE investor and try to do the same with my individual stock selection. I recently read somewhere that value investing has been in style since 1999. What does that mean? Someone please explain to me how buying a stock with a low PE can go out of style? If that stock beats estimates by a big margin (and the stars line up) how can that not move the stock (assuming the future is brighter than the past)?
This reminds me of when people say that the market will grow only 6-8%. Unless you're buying index funds why would I be concerned with what the market does? I would care more about what MY stocks are doing? BTW- I'm not knocking index investing just trying to understand why people say a particular investing style is out of favor.
