Welcome to part 3 of our 4 part exploration of the power of index ETFs. We may have written a book on them, but we still think index ETFs are under-appreciated. Over four episodes we'll be discussing why indexes: Ensure you don't miss out on growth Offer income without the hassle Cut your losers, double-down on your winners (this episode) Are designed to last forever In this episode we're taking a closer look how the design of an index gives us more of the companies doing well, and less of the companies doing poorly. Two of the hardest parts of investing - knowing when to sell and getting your position sizing correct. Luckily, the design of the index product takes care of both of those for you by applying a consistent, rules-based approach. Listen to today's episode to understand how. —------ This content has been made in collaboration with iShares by Blackrock, NAB Trade and S&P Dow Jones Indicies.

Last week on the podcast, Bryce mentioned that "investing in a small cap index is now the way to go if you want small cap exposure".
