Passive index funds consistently outperform the majority of actively managed stock funds over the long term.

Data shows that active fund managers rarely beat broader market benchmarks over multi-year horizons due to higher management fees and market efficiency. Over 10 to 15 years, over 85% to 90% of actively managed U.S. equity funds underperform their benchmark index.
