So?

Dell's market cap at IPO was $80M.

You can't just pick one good company to invest in. What would these funds do with the other, oh, $10Bn they need to invest?

These funds are not getting that kind of returns on 10B. Often you see "fund not seeking additional investment."
That's my point. When you have so much money to invest you (are forced to) capture a more representative slice of the market and regress closer to the mean.
