Have you noticed that Vanguard Funds have the lowest expense ratio?
It's a boring fund company, but the most trusted and honest.
Go with Vanguard. I am.

R u saying the best then is the first on the list. Yikes, that is a small choice.

I have several funds, all of which are no-load, (load is not mentioned in this list), 2/3 of which are active, only one of which has an expense over 1., and all of which have made me money over the last few years, including the last dismal years! I wouldn't touch a fund with expense ratios like most of these.

Remove the Fodder is totally correct.

Why are there funds with 3, 5, and 10 year returns of -1%, 3%, 5% included in the list of the best performing mutual funds? Is this fodder to make the list bigger or are the pickings that slim? Wouldn't it be better to just list the legitimately good funds: ones with returns around 10% or better, rather than have us waste our time sorting through the losers in order to get to them. Who wants a fund with a 10 year return of 5%? Inflation alone makes this a laggard. With those returns it would be better to put the money in a bank or a CD where the investor can get more secure returns, with less risk, and less headaches.

I'm not sure that the reference to Kinesiology (Kinesology) helped me understand mutual funds any better (in fact I am sure it didn't) but it did provide some very interesting side viewing and reading, and led me to look into EFT. I must agree it is outside the box thinking and acting! Yet, it was a fascinating little side trip. Helpful too.

Most Mutual Funds are just enjoying the high expense ratio on your money. Just invest in total market ETF and most likely one will be better off.
