Passive is more active than most think and has some active elements. Labeling it as an active trend-following/momentum strategy might be too far. Using sp500, it has trend following in two ways: 1) selection and 2) weighting. It adds winners and drops losers. Cap weighting means that as a stock’s price rises, its influence on the index grows, while underperforming stocks see their weight shrink. This inherently allocates more to winners.
“passive investing is a terrible idea” sounds like a Seth Klarman quote. https://t.co/6XjpcBpmx0
NEW ARTICLE: Passive Aggressive: The Increasing Risks of Passive Dominance ⬇️
In our latest article, the explosive growth of passive investing has reshaped equity markets in profound and often overlooked ways. This article explores the structural consequences of that shift and how investors can adapt to the new landscape.
Key Points from the Article Include:
• Passive capitalization-weighted index funds now surpass active management in aggregate investor allocations.
• Passive dominance causes unrelated stocks to move synchronously, undermining diversification and potentially increasing systemic risk.
• Flows into passive strategies exacerbate momentum-driven price distortions.
• Rebalancing at the stock level to non-price-based anchor weights may mitigate these distortions and enhance long-term returns.
