 The S&P 500 is maintained by a committee of market professionals.

There are no rigid or absolute rules for the S&P 500.

Having the index committee means the S&P 500 is actively managed.

When the unexpected happens the index committee can respond

quickly.

Bill Miller noted that the S&P 500s track
record of being very hard to beat
suggested that the index committee were
actually good active managers

Performance: Active vs. Passive Managers Has
Been Cyclical

Source: Morningstar Direct, Baron Capital

The analysis is based on monthly rolling 3-year returns for the period 12/31/1981 to 6/30/2016.
US OE Large includes all share classes in Morningstars US OE Large Growth, US OE Large Value, and US OE Large Blend categories. The passive fund performance is calculated as the average 3-year performance of all index fund share classes in each category.
The performance of active funds is calculated as the average 3-year performance of all non-index fund share classes in each category. Results for each category are then averaged and the differences between active funds averages and passive funds averages 13
are calculated.

"I love the concept of a strong dollar, in many respects obviously I like a strong dollar. But
