A lot of people agonize over this choice. My conclusion: for most non-professional investors, broad ETF investing outperforms active stock selection over the long run. Lower fees, better diversification, no ongoing monitoring required. Active stock-picking has a higher ceiling but demands significant research time and carries genuine luck dependency. If you don't have the bandwidth to follow markets daily, ETF investing isn't settling โ it's optimal.
