I guess if you use 5 year chart for a fund (FVVAX) that has been started less than a year ago, you can make any claims you want. ;) Maybe you should hold your horses for another 4.5 years. ;) finance.yahoo.com^GSPC I agree that "value" indexes are not necessarily very good though. If you look at RSP and PRF, they have beaten "market weighted" S&P500, but not NASDAQ (whatever Yahoo means by NASDAQ - I have no clue): finance.yahoo.com^GSPC&c=^IXIC&c=^DJI Market weighted indexes accentuate momentum investing: rising market cap leads to higher weighting leads to more buying leads to rising market cap and so on; falling market cap leads to lower weighting leads to selling and so on. The only positive is that the reweighting is not instant. (DOW is not market weighted and it's a very very bad index overall as discussed by Ken Fisher).
