The opposite has repeatedly been proven true. Paying a load just means that you are throwing your hard earned money down a hole. infor626 Wed, 07 May 2008 18:53:52 GMT http://www.theskilledinvestor.com/ss.item.46/avoid-mutual-funds-with-higher-investment-portfolio-turnover.html Avoid mutual funds with higher investment portfolio turnover - The Skilled Investor's FUND AUTHORITY SCORES for Mutual Funds and ETFs > Selecting Diversified Investment Funds -- Mutual Funds and ETFs - Financial Articles, The problem with high turnover is that higher fund trading adds substantial hidden expenses that drag down returns. Because short term trading is a zero sum game before costs played against other well informed traders, greater turnover is far more likely on average to result in lower fund returns instead of superior risk adjusted performance. When trading is greater, then even higher returns are required just to break even on the higher associated trading costs. infor626 Wed, 07 May 2008 18:53:52 GMT http://www.theskilledinvestor.com/ss.item.47/avoid-very-large-actively-managed-mutual-funds.html Avoid very large actively managed mutual funds - The Skilled Investor's FUND AUTHORITY SCORES for Mutual Funds and ETFs > Selecting Diversified Investment Funds -- Mutual Funds and ETFs - Financial Articles, Big fund portfolio positions and higher percentage ownership of any company’s bonds or common stock are not good things for actively managed funds. Nor, are these big positions and high percentages good for you. Large size constrains how a fund can trade and how efficiently it can do so. When an actively managed fund becomes very large, it must manage its trading exceptionally well or it will suffer significantly higher transactions costs, which tend to cause lower net performance. infor626 Wed, 07 May 2008 18:53:52 GMT http://www.bondmarketindexfund.com/ best bond index funds, best bond index fund, bond funds, best bond fund, best fixed income funds, best fixed income fund, best fixed income bond funds, best fixed income bond fund, best bond market index funds,best fixed income mutual funds,best fixed income securities, best bond investment securities infor626 Thu, 13 Mar 2008 05:42:21 GMT http://www.bestnoloadmutualfund.com/the-best-noload-mutual-funds-etfs-13.htm Best Noload Mutual Funds, Best Noload ETFs,Best Mutual Funds, Best ETFs, Low Cost No Load Index Funds, Best Mutual Fund, Mutual Fund Sales Loads, Mutual Fund 12b-1 Fees, Mutual Fund Management Expenses,investment management fees, passively managed index mutual funds, annual expense ratios below, annual fund expense ratio, superior mutual fund performance, investment costs, capital gains taxes, Mutual Fund Performance infor626 Thu, 13 Mar 2008 05:25:35 GMT http://www.bestnoloadmutualfund.com/best-no-load-mutual-funds-etfs-12.htm Best No Load Mutual Funds, Best No Load ETFs, Select No Load Mutual Funds, Top No Load Mutual Funds, Select Mutual Funds, Top Mutual Funds, Select ETFs, top ETFs, Buy Low Cost No Load Mutual Funds, Buy Low Cost Mutual Funds, Buy Low Cost Funds, best mutual funds infor626 Thu, 13 Mar 2008 05:31:25 GMT http://www.bestnoloadmutualfund.com/ Best Noload Mutual Funds, Best Noload ETFs,Best Mutual Funds, Best ETFs, Low Cost No Load Index Funds, Best Mutual Fund, Mutual Fund Sales Loads, Mutual Fund 12b-1 Fees, Mutual Fund Management Expenses,investment management fees, passively managed index mutual funds, annual expense ratios below, annual fund expense ratio, superior mutual fund performance, investment costs, capital gains taxes, Mutual Fund Performance infor626 Tue, 06 May 2008 04:02:08 GMT http://www.bestnoloadmutualfund.com/best-noload-funds-sitemap No Load Funds, Best Noload Mutual Funds, Actively Managed Mutual Funds, Small Mutual Funds, small ETFs, Mature Noload Mutual Funds, Mature Mutual Funds, Mutual Fund Performance, Best Mutual Funds, No Sales Loads, No 12b-1 Fees, Best No Load Mutual Funds, Investment Management Expenses, Low Portfolio Turnover infor626 Thu, 13 Mar 2008 05:33:44 GMT http://www.theskilledinvestor.com/ss.item.3/beware-of-large-and-hidden-mutual-fund-costs.html Beware of large and hidden mutual fund costs - Personal Investment Management > Cost Control and Investment Performance Improvement Articles - Financial Articles, In pursuit of better returns, many investors sensibly seek out no load mutual funds with low annual expense ratios. However, loads and published expense ratios are only part of the mutual fund cost story. Other costs for individual investors to consider concern “hidden” mutual fund expenses that directly reduce the net asset value of the fund. These hidden expenses include trading commissions that a fund pays to brokers and the cost or market impact of fund trading. infor626 Wed, 07 May 2008 18:53:52 GMT http://topsites.blogflux.com/tag/mutual+funds Blogs tagged as Mutual Funds by their owner. infor626 Wed, 07 May 2008 18:53:52 GMT
