Reply to comment by Upset-North-2211 in VTI or VTSAX which is the better choice long term? by ToenailRS

Sometimes the short term (which even 10 years is) can show the opposite of long term expectations.

>The world has changed since 2012, and my investing approach has changed with it.

I've seen more than a few times that "the most dangerous words in investing are 'this time is different.'"

>but have changed my opinion since Value has lagged SO far behind growth for a very long time.

See my first sentence.

You are saying that the Value Premium over growth is still an important aspect of investing. Some recent academic research has cast doubt on the continued existence of this premium. Im not saying totally avoid Value, but am saying Growth should be held in a Roth. VBK would have to decline almost 200% versus DFFVX to make it better to hold value instead of growth in the Roth. Doesn’t seem likely to me that this will occur any time soon.
