We just got an annual fee list for the funds in our 401k at work. I was about to "help" my co-workers realize the value in selecting the index funds due to the cheaper fee.
As I looked closer, I realized that the actively managed growth funds did a lot better than the index funds (which is where I have my money.)
Any thoughts on whether to go with conventional wisdom and stay in index funds? Or shift to the growth funds? Is there something I'm not understanding about "growth" funds in regards to expected performance?
I'm feeling kind of stupid for having shifted all my money into the index funds.
