| | Index Funds Advisors - Interview with Eugene Fama |
 | | Professor Fama is arguably the best-known financial economist in the world, but even he had to take a first step toward the winding and wonderful path of finance and economics. |  | | Fama could not begin to guess how large a segment, but he does credit certain companies with bridging the gap between the theory and the public. |  | | Professor Fama is the Robert R. McCormick Distinguished Service Professor of Finance at the Graduate School of Business of the University of Chicago. |

 | | Fama, a finance professor at the University of Chicago, is a director at the Dimensional Fund Advisors (DFA), which has $34 billion in assets. |  | | Eugene Fama says that an efficient market governs prices, meaning that stock picking is a cruel illusion. |  | | Lakonishok, a finance professor at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, is a partner in LSV Asset Management, which has $8 billion in assets and which, with its disciplined approach to value investing, caters largely to institutional investors. |

 | | Widely perceived as the "father of modern finance," he has brought an empirical and scientific rigor to the field of investment management, transforming the way finance is viewed and conducted. |  | | In addition to serving on the board of directors of Dimensional Fund Advisors Inc., he is also a member of its investment committee, and in this capacity continues to develop many of the firm's strategies. |  | | The author of the efficient markets hypothesis that underlies all of Dimensional's products, Professor Fama helped develop the firm's process, continues to supply key research, and helps keep the firm abreast of research in academia. |

 | | Eugene Fama said that it was impossible to "beat the market" because there are so many people trying to, that they effectively insure that the best predictor of future prices is exactly the current market price. |  | | Eugene Fama said that the financial markets are informationally efficient. |  | | The only thing that significantly changes the price of a stock (beyond the growth of PV of Future Earnings that are already expected to be realized) is something that happens that has not all ready been predicted, or priced into the stock. |

 | | In answer to Fama's question of how they plan to calculate the cost of capital in a world where prices are incorrect, the behavioralists say that for the purposes of such calculations, they'll just assume that prices are right. |  | | The behavioralists are now clearly the dominant stream in academic finance, having made the leap from outsider status during the 1990s as a new generation of professors rose to positions of prominence. |  | | But efficient-markets theory has a dirty little secret, too, which is that for the market to remain efficient, there have to be lots of rational investors who believe enough in the market's inefficiency to spend their careers trying to beat it. |

 | | But in academia the debate is all but over, and among pension fund fiduciaries Fama`s theories are now so accepted that an estimated 24% of the trillions of dollars in pension assets is invested in index funds. |  | | While working as a trust officer at American National Bank in Chicago, Sinquefield evaluated the bank`s money managers and discovered just what Fama had predicted: Funds that actively pick large-company stocks collectively do no better than the SandP--worse, in fact, once you count their fees of 0.5 to 1.5 percentage points a year. |  | | The result was a fund with the efficiency of an SandP indexer but the promise of higher returns in the long run. |

 | | However, critics of the field (such as Eugene Fama) contend that it is more a collection of anomalies rather than a true branch of finance and that these anomalies will eventually be priced out of the market or explained by appeal to market microstructure arguments. |  | | Law and economics is another field where the lessions of one disipline are brought into economics. |  | | A very specific version of behavioral finance, prospect theory, was first advanced by Amos Tversky and Kahneman in 1979. |

 | | For those unfamiliar with the subject matter, efficient market and random walk theory are at the philosophical core of the analysis that leads many investors to follow a passive index investing approach verses one involving investment in individual stocks and/or actively managed mutual funds looking to achieve "above market" returns. |  | | Fama is a well known financial economist, a likely future Nobel Prize winner, and is known for his contributions to efficient market and random walk theory. |  | | The second, is a 2000 interview with Roger Ibbotson titled "Random Talks with Eugene Fama" discussing his research, thoughts on investing, market inefficiency and risk. |
