The investing world recently lost one of its quiet pioneers, Mac McQuown. While his name may not be widely recognized outside our industry, his influence runs deep. A trailblazer in modern investing, Mac’s visionary contributions laid the groundwork for the strategies many investors benefit from today. As David Booth, Co-Founder of Dimensional Fund Advisors, aptly noted, Mac was a true transformer in the field. [Click the quote to read Dimensional’s tribute.]

To bring about fundamental change, you need great thinkers and researchers, but you also need implementers. People like Mac don’t win Nobel Prizes; they implement the ideas of the guys who do. He’s a catalyst.

“Catalyst” is the keyword. There are so many useful nuggets in the attached article in the Financial Times that you’ll be better off reading it. In a short space, you will learn the history of evidence-based investing, the first index fund (Mac’s creation), the birth of many future Nobel Laureates, and their impressive connection to Dimensional, Blackrock, and other global finance leaders.

If you want to know and understand the recipe you’re investing in when investing with Hill, this is one of the better shortcuts to taking the long view you’ll ever read.

If we see a better way to do things, and no one else has offered it yet, we’re determined to create it ourselves. Thus, we’re excited to share some groundbreaking news. In early 2025, we’ll launch the Longview Advantage ETF—a unique, US total market investment solution designed to give you even more value from your portfolio. The ETF will provide more efficient access to the US stock market compared to your already excellent current portfolio and save our clients ≈$500,000 in fees annually*.
What are the benefits for you?

• Lower costs
• Greater tax efficiency
• More efficient exposure to Evidence-Based Investment Principles
• The opportunity to invest in this solution with no tax impact to transition*.

Our Chief Investment Officer, Matt Zenz, has recorded a 3-minute video introducing the ETF and highlighting some key benefits. We also invite you to attend a webinar we are hosting on Wednesday, December 4th, from Noon-1pm CT where you’ll have the opportunity to learn more and ask questions live. For your privacy and security, only Hill Investment Group team members will know the identity of those attending, and there will be no video of any attendees.
