Jack actually destroyed modern markets and we are all worse off because of his philosophy that was forced into the market. The index products have caused more volatility in the broader market and more dislocation from fundamentals. Those indices are cap weight so they force investors to buy high and sell low which we all know is not ideal. The old philosophies of Benjamin Graham would be better reading. Bogle’s forced philosophy of extreme fee pressure has made investors worse off by crowding out many competitors. Meanwhile, critiquing 10 basis points at the expense of active management that can give improved risk management. As Apple grows the index buys more and a higher price. When it goes down, it sells. Constantly buying high and selling low. Bogle fooled a lot of investors with his garbage.
