I would like to know if I need to keep bank and mutual Fund statements?

I have kept bank and mutual fund statements for years. I would like to throw them away if not needed. I have some mutual funds I purchased 15 years ago with dividand invested. In order to calculate the cost basis of the fund when I sell the shares, I think I need to keep records of the cost of share when the dividend was used to purchase additional share. Many of the large Mutual Fund companies have started capturing the cost basis for shareholders in the last 10 years so they calculate the cost basis for you. Some of the smaller mutual funds companies do not have this type of service. Any advice is helpful.

For the bank statement, after I reconcile the checks, do I need to keep them for any reasons?

How to get statements from 10 years ago for a mutual fund?

Invesco Mutual Fund has a class action lawsuit whose claim form requires one to enter the number of shares held at year end from 1999-2003. I no longer have the paperwork on the fund as it was sold, and the paperwork kept for 7 years and then shredded. Does anyone have an idea how to go about finding that information from 10 years ago?

How do I get the cost basis for mutual fund sale?

I closed a mutual fund last year but all the 1099-B reports is the $ amount I received and the number of shares. Turbotax wants to know the cost basis to determine profit/loss. I had the acct over 10 years – how am I supposed to know this?

Is now a good time to invest in index mutual funds?

The stock market has been crushed over the past couple of months. Is now a good time to invest in index mutual funds if I am willing to hold them for 10 years? Is it worth it or would I be better of putting them into CD’s at 5% interest over 5 years?

I have a decent amount of cash in a money market account making 3.5%…I wonder if I should invest this into the market.

Any comments or advice would be appreciated

How to increase wealth with Index Funds?

I understand that buying low and selling high generates profit. How else would you make money with Index Funds? through receiving dividends nd reinvesting them? and when we say an index fund has a 10% return over 10 years, is that interest? would you get a check for it?

Basic question, but I just don’t understand how else to make money through an index fund apart from buying low and selling high…
