re: "This situation also makes me wonder whether it makes sense to be in index funds, or whether you should be in only concentrated mutual funds run by great stock pickers, or just in some stocks that might out-perform the market."

After getting caught by Bob's picks, I am going to stick to the index funds. I have been investing for 20 years, and while one fund gets hot for a while, 5 years later it is in obscurity and someone else is hot and heralded for being a great stock picker. Gurus come, gurus go, but the index funds keep on cranking.
