Of course they'd be best served by index funds. If those folks tried to choose a manager, they'd probably pick a loser. <g> Fools and their money, my dear, the story never changes. No one manager seems to stay hot for long anyway. I prefer the approach I mentioned in my last TigerInvestor column - when you want to know who was responsible for your last trade, just look in the mirror.

Just for giggles, I sketched out the $50 million 50% Gains Hypothetical Mutual Fund. Ground rules are simple: --minimum market cap $100 million --no shorts --no options --no margin --no single position over 5% --otherwise anything goes I will post the positions tomorrow if I can and set up a Yahoo portfolio to track the results. If I sell a stock in my real portfolio, I will take it out of the FPGHMF (50% Gains Hypothetical Mutual Fund). No new purchases unless I free up cash somewhere else. Should be good for a laugh.
