Has passive investing gone too far?

Research shows that the largest passive funds operators have "routinely abstained or voted against everything from supply chain deforestation to climate targets"

A sad welcome to the "age of asset manager capitalism"

As the value factor is making a comeback, momentum is back on the side of active fund managers, according to @johnauthers via @business.

As London is trying to maintain its financial centre competitiveness, could we see an (at least partial) rollback of MiFiD II? Will the EU respond?

More importantly: will this mean new career growth prospects for equity analysts?

Hedge funds have posted their best start to a calendar year since before the
global financial crisis.

But, behind the strong headline numbers, managers are struggling to cope with some confusing moves in markets.

Will this be a true comeback?

Despite what we've been told to expect, active investing is on the rise again – driven by technological shifts, lockdowns, loose monetary policies, and Gen Z's internalisation of how steep their path to financial progress is.

Insightful piece from @a16z. https://t.co/nufDTlobt1

The conflict over what tried-and-tested valuation metrics mean, and how they should be interpreted in this environment rages on – with even the creators of some of these indicators disagreeing with their own previous interpretations.

A metric in itself?
