Just tuned into your podcast and it's great. Going through some of the past episodes and stumbling across this one. I'm very interested in why it's perceived that an actively managed portfolio is a bad thing. I'd rather a 2.4% mer and get a quality and diversified portfolio then a .3/.4% mer that's only acted on during major swings in the market place. Also, is concentration risk even considered in this process? Thanks
