Thanks for the kind words Kareem. Certainly T. Rowe Price has many funds that do not perform as well as these.
However, I can’t recall offhand any of their funds being shut down and liquidated since I started investing with them, so I don’t think they’d any survivorship bias here.
Also, there are lots of other great funds out there that aren’t run by TRP and that have had great track records over the past 15 years.
I just looked at the TRP funds I’ve invested in over the years (plus a few I wish I’d invested in 😉).
If you read the second of the other articles I linked to at the bottom, you’ll see how I pick the funds I invest in. Nothing Earth-shatteringly genius, but it allows me to significantly outperform the S&P 500 for close to 2 decades.
If you read the first of the other articles I linked to, you’ll see that my TRP portfolio more or less doubled the index return last year. Obviously, that’s a pretty huge outlier, but even 1–2% extra annual return on average over 18 years sure adds up.
