Motley Fool Hidden Gems Investing · Which Types of Investments Should You Own and Where Should You Own Them · 4 Apr 2026 podcast

I think for actively managed funds, you do have more of a potential to beat the market.

That's what these managers are trying to do is make the tweaks and adding more or less of the different mixes to try and beat the market.

And then again, on the downside, because you have active managers,

they are making the changes to try and lessen any downside exposure as well if the market turns.

I think another benefit of actively managed funds is you can get more niche on your strategy.

With active managers, you can get very, very specific into someone's investment opinions, what they think is going to be the next sector.

And so it allows much more niche investing styles.

I think if you're going to have a manager, a human involved in picking, that you have the risk associated with that.

A manager could leave.

Everything else is gonna come up with that prefix basket for you.

Individual stocks allowed you to build the basket.

And so there's a huge amount of beating the market and the returns that you can get if you choose right.
