Q: Excluding mutual fund management fees for the moment, is it not better to own the entities within a fund vs the fund itself? Putting it another way, if the stocks go up, I go up 'x' percent. However the funds holding the stocks also have to be 'popular' with other investors, so money flows into them, for me to make any money. Have I got that right?
Are we, as investors, getting a continual watered down effect with the many funds out there?

During your many years in the industry who would rank on your top 5 all time list of CEO+company combos for creating investor satisfaction. Or in other words, if someone started a brand new company today who would you invest in on day 1 based solely on their reputation?
