Index Fund
Basics
Что это значит
A type of investment fund (ETF or mutual fund) designed to replicate the performance of a specific market index, rather than trying to beat it through active management. Known for low costs and broad diversification.
Пример
VOO, SPY, and IVV are all index funds that track the S&P 500 Index. They do not try to pick winning stocks, they just hold all 500 stocks in the index.
Ошибка новичков
Beginners think "index funds are boring" and try to beat the market by picking individual stocks. Over the long term, most active funds underperform their benchmark index after fees.
