Subject: Re: Bogle , back to the real world,
Academics will tell us it's because RSP gets, a little bit, to the small and value factors. If that's the case, why not target small and value factors?
Since RSP's inception, its performance has been basically indistinguishable from the S&P Midcap 400 (IJH). Most of the time the Midcaps seem to have done a little better. Value doesn't seem to come into it. IJH (Midcap Blend) is also basically indistinguishable from Midcap Value (IJJ).
