That’s not quite right about passive and active though. It almost always resets every quarter (or other liquidity events). Passive introduced delayed price discovery and as a result greater volatility around earnings (or liquidity events). But over medium to long term passive vs active should not matter.
- xyzelement 5y agoWhy isn't it "quite right?" I spelled out 3 scenarios that can play out and obviously will given the structure and incentives. Where do you disagree?
- hehaheha 5y agoBecause passive does not necessarily mean index. You can be passive and concentrated (see ARKK). And more importantly real world indices are moving target to begin with. They’re just very rough approximation of market basket. SPX is not representative of market as it relates to mpt at all. In fact that’s likely one of the biggest myths in modern finance.
- xyzelement 5y agoThe fact that Arkk's own website refers to itself as an active equity etf should prompt you to reconsider your definition of these terms.
