Thanks Luciano! This would be an interesting thing for, say Roger Nusbaum or J.D Steinhilber, to look at: the performance of ETFs and ETF portfolios versus the hedge fund indexes. Guys???? :-)

Luciano, just a quick thank you for the care with which you're answering these questions. It's amazing to see such an intelligent and open discussion -- far more interesting and thoughtful than most interviews allow for. Thank you again!

Thanks Luciano!
On the case for dividend stocks, do you think the case for them is statistical, or also theoretical -- ie. that dividend stocks *should* perform better, not just *have* performed better?

Two more quick questions:
1. We know that dividend-paying stocks have a good track record in the US, but how have foreign dividend paying stocks performed relative to foreign non-dividend-paying stocks?
2. Have you compared the performance of WisdomTree's indexes to the hedge fund indexes? You could calculate what actual performance would look like after fees assuming hedge fund fees of 2% of assets and a 20% performance fee, and WisdomTree fees per the ETFs. It would be interesting to see if on average buying WisdomTree ETFs is a better value proposition than investing in hedge funds!

Thanks for doing this! Couple of questions:
(1) What do you think of this argument that the case for dividend-paying stocks seems to be weak?
(2) Where do you see the expense ratios of ETFs in general, and WisdomTree ETFs in particular, going over time?
