Stanlib Index - Coming into its own for now - Media Comment23 Jun 2005
racker funds have a poor following, as actively managed funds have outperformed share indices over the long term. But they do have their day, as Stanlib Index (SI), an all share index tracker, has shown of late. SI's rise up the ranks in 2005 reflects a swing to big caps and a poor reading of the market by many active funds. This is not the first time. SI outpaced the general equity fund index for 29 months between 2000 and 2002.
