well aren't some of them land-locked to a degree Yes, by charter they have to be long. If its a large big cap fund they are forced in where they aren't going to get much return and essential frozen out of where the returns are the best. The funds who have a large percentage of their holdings in the index leaders are screwed. While the big stocks that make up the heaviest weighting in the indices were going up it was while the majority of the other stocks on the NYSE and Nasdaq floundered. Now the indices are floundering, the broader market is doing far better. You had to be in small to do well in the last year. There's no way some of these big funds can get their money out of some of these big names.
