One Index Fund Touted as a Way to Beat the Stock Market

Original: What Is the Stock Market? Here's the One Index Fund I'd Buy to Beat It.

A personal finance writer argues that most investors are better off with a single broad index fund rather than picking individual stocks, presenting it as the simplest way to match or beat overall market returns. The piece is aimed at beginner investors and doubles as a basic explainer of how the stock market works. Commentary of this kind typically surges when markets are volatile and people are looking for low-effort investing strategies.

Why now: Retail interest in simple, low-cost index investing tends to spike when market conditions are uncertain.
