It was another tough year for value investors as growth stocks once again took the crown. It was the third consecutive year that growth stocks have out performed value.

Since Jan 3, 2017, the Vanguard Growth ETF (VUG) is up 59% versus just 27% for the Vanguard Value ETF (VTV). The S&P 500 is up 41% during that same period.

To make matters worse, the growth stock lead actually grew in 2019.

The Vanguard Growth ETF is up 14% on the Vanguard Value ETF for 2019, up 36% versus just 22% for value. The S&P 500 is up 28% during that same time.

But the growth stock rally is now getting long in the tooth. At some point, the equation will change and value will rise again.

With this lull, it’s a good time for value investors to hone their value investing strategy and accumulate their positions.
