Ford dropped 3.1 percent overall as passenger car volumes plunged, and Fiat Chrysler’s Jeep brand rose 5.9 percent. Toyota and Honda posted declines, with strong SUV models driving the market mix despite softer car demand.

Mutual funds and active management outcomes
Active mutual funds often fail to outperform benchmarks. In 2016, only about a third of large caps beat the S&P 500, with even lower success for small and mid caps. Over 15 years fewer than 8 percent of large-cap managers beat the market, challenging the value of higher fees for active funds.
