Alternately, the value stock index generated higher returns than the growth stock index when the overall stock market performed poorly.

The authors believe that this simple relationship will help investors better understand the comparative performance of the two investment styles.TOPICS: Style investing, exchange-traded funds and applications, long-term/retirement investing
