Paul,

Official Formula Investing results are here:

formulainvesting.com

I am pretty sure that Dale outperformed that and I may have outperformed that too, but then neither of us used MF universe for investing. I like MF universe though and I have quite a bit of my portfolio in stocks from it (even though I did not start with MF screen). That's why I am pursuing this extended discussion here.

I wonder - which will remain an unanswered question I think - whether people cherry picking from just MF universe would have outperformed auto-MF within the same time period. ;)

There is also model performance, which is not real, so has to be taken with a grain of salt:

formulainvesting.com

It has pretty impressive 10 year annual 14.5% returns.

Note: I don't like comparing short term (1-2 year) performance of different funds/people/etc, since I believe it's not very informative, scientific and leads to ego trips. I did this rather casually here, but I do not intend to promote or disparage different approaches. I suggest that people do not put a lot of weight on the comparison (or on this disclaimer ;)).
