I've repeatedly come across the idea that index funds have consistently beat active management, but somewhere along the line I realized that there are infinitely many ways to track an index via weighting. Are there large-scale studies that have been done on different weighting schemes to compare their performance? (I am no expert on investing so I'm not confident that I'm even using the correct terminology, which may be why I didn't have much success with Google).
