Twice a year, S&P Dow Jones updates their SPIVA (S&P Indices Versus Active) report.
Not only do US active managers underperform 92% of the time over 10 years on an absolute basis, but underperformance goes up to 97% when you factor in risk. This means that you only have a 3% chance to beat the market using active funds.

Choose your horse wisely.
