• The S&P 500 is maintained by a committee of market professionals.

• Having the index committee means the S&P 500 is actively managed.

• There are no rigid or absolute rules for the S&P 500.

• When the unexpected happens the index committee can respondquickly.

Performance: Active vs. Passive Managers Has

Been Cyclical

Source: Morningstar Direct, Baron CapitalThe analysis is based on monthly rolling 3-year returns for the period 12/31/1981 to 6/30/2016.US OE Large includes all share classes in Morningstar’s US OE Large Growth, US OE Large Value, and US OE Large Blend categories. The passive fund performance is calculated as the average 3-year performance of all index fund share classes in each category. The performance of active funds is calculated as the average 3-year performance of all non-index fund share classes in each category. Results for each category are then averaged and the differences between active funds’ averages and passive funds’ averagesare calculated.
