Passive investing dominates global and Australian equity markets while active management has been falling out of favour. Our view is that many of the benefits of passive investing have reduced while well-executed active management offers patient investors a better way forward.
In this special edition of the Firetrail Equity Edge podcast , Firetrail Managing Director Patrick Hodgens and Product Specialist Catie Ryan unpack why the traditional promises of passive investing are breaking down, how index concentration and mechanical flows are distorting prices, and where genuinely active managers still have an edge. From fragile liquidity in mega caps to better value and volatility-driven opportunity outside the ASX 20, this conversation explores where active management is still alive and well — if you know where to look.
