Be aware that published results are heavily skewed, and are sampling bias towards the successful portfolios. Actively managed funds do outperform the market from time-to-time, and they do get published. However, not the same portfolios (year-over-year), not the same fund managers, not the same issuers...

WealthFront and Vanguard and others who do passive fund management: they do get about market average. Not newsworthy, except that it is better than every other alternative on average.
