Fund picks and pans stocks

Posts Tagged ‘expense ratios’

Any good recommendations for me? My net worth isn’t sky-high so they would need somewhat low minimum investments of maybe 00 or so. I’m thinking of replacing my more expensive managed international and local growth funds with them.

Anything I should consider before making the move? I’ve noticed my managed funds, even when beating the indexes, tend to be either even or below when factoring in expense ratios. So, I figured why not just go with the index.

Is there a list of major funds somewhere with the expense ratios? I figure the only major differential between them would be those ratios.

Okay, I’m new to investing in funds.

I know a bit here or there, but I’m still learning. I don’t know enough to trust myself jumping into anything yet.

What I’m looking for is long-term stuff, like something for retirement. I’m 22 now so I guess it’s a great time to start.

What is the top parameters I should look for when browsing mutual funds? Like when browsing MorningStar I see NAV and Expense Ratios (I know what they are) but how do I know what is more important? Also, once I know what is important, how do I know if it’s good. I figured you probably want a low expense ratio, but what would you consider "low"?

I guess I just wanna know what to look for in numbers.

I’ve noticed that there are numerous, numerous mutual fund companies that have funds with expense ratios exceeding 2, 3, and even 4 percent. With fund companies like Vanguard and Fidelity offering funds with expeses that are a fraction of that, why are people still investing in high-expense funds?
