A Nation of Savers
"The flexibility of institutional investors is frequently limited by a self-imposed requirement to be fully invested at all times. Many institutions interpret their task as stock-picking, not market timing; they believe that their clients have made the market timing decision and pay them to fully invest all funds under their management."
"To value investors the concept of indexing is at best silly and at worst quite hazardous. Warren Buffett has observed that "in any sort of a contest – financial, mental or physical – it's an enormous advantage to have opponents who have been taught that it's useless to even try." I believe that over time value investors will outperform the market and that choosing to match it is both lazy and short-sighted."
