Answer by Ted
Bogle believes that you can’t consistently beat the market by timing and stock picking and timing so you’re better of just investing in the whole market via index funds.

The opposite point of view says that you can and point to many people, usually hedge fund managers, because they have records that you can check, who have many years of beating the market. Usually this involves trend following. Bogle, Malkiel, and other insist that this doesn’t work. http://www.michaelcovel.com/2008/06/01/mark-walsh-second-generation-turtle/

For a great explanation of trend following, read Michael Covel’s book with the simple title Trend Following
