According to statistics, in 2021, more than three-quarters of fund managers in the United States did not outperform the market ($S&P 500(.SPX)$).

On the other hand, China's fund managers have not performed well. According to statistics, the average income of the fund last year was only 7.33%, only slightly higher than$SSE Comp(000001.SH)$4.8%, less than$创业板(159915)$12.02% of the index.

In China, the securities industry ranks first among the top ten industries in 2021 with an average monthly income of 56,000, but the performance of these high-paying and highly educated fund managers does not seem to be satisfactory.

    My rule of thumb: Buy those products/services that I'm using myself. If I'm using them, likely millions of people worldwide are also doing the same thing.

    $ARK Innovation ETF(ARKK)$ (funds) vs $S&P500 ETF(SPY)$ (etf) . In my opinion, I would prefer the latter.

    If funds fail to outperform the S&P, i may not consider unless the fund has strong fundamentals of growth & lower performance is only temporal. Research company financial rpts & historical data.

      with funds I'm being forced to swallow even those companies which i have no conviction in.   if individual stocks don't perform,  i can simply switch ticker easily.

    If Possible self>fund.Cause fund incur fees (ARM 0.75%). Asset managers are paid according to AUM. Thus, Funds are not incentivised to maximise profits but to obtain stable and achievable returns.

    Warren Buffett said that investing in a passive index ETF like $S&P500 ETF(SPY)$ would be a better option than investing in active funds.In 2021 SPY rose 27% which is a great return compared to ARKK!

    Trade stocks you get to choose which company you have researched in. Funds comes in bundle of companies of which you cannot choose. Index Funds would be better. Do both to spread yr money baskets.

    I would choose to trade stocks on my own rather than let the fund managers play with my money. (win or lose, they still charge us a fee, so they are still the ultimate winner).

    Buy stocks. Choose and trust your decision. Can decide to buy/sell anytime. Also funds still will incur addition cost.
