    If everyone was in passive - there would be more opportunity for alpha in active investing! It would just reach equilibrium. The average retail investor should still look at investing in ETFs.

    Not EVERYONE is indexing. There are still plenty of arrogant traders who think they are smarter than everyone else.
    They will be active pickers. Those are MOST of the people in finance.

    I will gladly let my intellect be diluted ... and let the "intellectuals" pick and choose in the Wallstreet Casino. I'll just invest in all of them and wait for my consistent return at the end of the day ... Thank you

      Exactly. I couldn't even tell you how many thousands of dollars I've lost over the years trying to invest in individual stocks. Networks like CNBC and its sponsers have a vested interest in finding suckers to buy into individual stocks so they can collect their fees. No thanks... I'll stick with the S&P 500

    Ironically, active investors who don’t believe markets are efficient are the main drivers of markets’ efficiency 🤓
    So yeah, Shiller’s point is valid. If we have a market where all participants are passive, we could have a problem but realistically can never get to that point.

      Bubbles inevitably appear, doesn't mater from passive or active investing. It's the act of investing the inflated mass of money, that the money printer constantly produces, which creates bubbles.

    Well... indexing is not completely bad ... diversification for those who don’t have opinions or resources to research... it also provides a stable base and always have extreme volatility to discover price ... as long as there is still significant/ material weight for smart hedge funds targeting bad firms and long the good firms then it’s ok. Not everyone should be in indexing but it does have value ... double edged sword ... not perfect

    How do we know if this whole passive investing fears are pumped by corporations to get everyone start "gambling" on stocks again...with passive investing when the economy is good you make money when it's goes down you don't you just have to be smart enough to diversify and know when to take profits ...

    Well think about it differenly: what is happening more of? People that are able to appropriately value the companies moving into passive investing or people who are unable to appropriately value the companies moving into passive investing?
    If it is the former, it is a net negative trend and if it is the latter, it is a net positive trend.

    This is much ado about nothing. If everyone began passive investing, which will never happen, then market inefficiency would increase more quickly as you approach that point. Market inefficiency means opportunity to make money for people who can recognize, which in turn brings the very calibration being discussed here and shifts people away from passive investing. It's the reason why active investing still exists, and there's no sign of hedge funds and other firms packing up shop to go passive.
    What passive investing does is create an opportunity for regular people to invest their money without having to pay people who provide terrible financial advice, and stock pickers who fall woefully short of the market average. I don't see an argument being made here that warrants people giving that up to pay more for worse results.
    And free riding? Investing as a whole, and the market generally, is inherently rife with free ridership. In fact, it's part of their selling features. "Put your money here and watch it grow without doing anything!"

      Exactly, the market will self correct. There may even be bubbles, but you can't tell me that ETFs are going to somehow cheat economic reality and put us into some new paradigm lol. As you said the greater the inefficiency becomes, the greater the opportunity! That's one the beautiful things about greed actually. Unbelievable that they have a professor of economics on who apparently doesn't understand how markets work!
