Tagged: It’s obvious: People have lost their faith in Legg Mason Value Trust (LMVTX) manager Bill Miller. Not long ago, he was a Wall Street idol. He outperformed the S&P 500 Index for 15 consecutive years by investing in big tech names. Mutual fund investors wanted to invest with him, and money managers wanted to be him. Now, his streak of outperforming the S&P 500 Index is gone and largely undone -- he’s now losing to the market over a trailing 10-year period.
And no one’s letting him off lightly.

Legg Mason Value, managed by the once-revered Bill Miller, has performed so poorly the past two and a half years that Morningstar now gives the fund one star, our lowest rating. But should it really come as a surprise that Miller, who was once the talk of the investing world because he beat the stock market 15 consecutive calendar years, has hit a rough patch? No. The streak merely masked Miller's bold approach to stock picking, a strategy that was sure to run out of steam at some point.
