How to Select a Mutual Fund
Investing in mutual funds often starts with following the crowd, opting for today's popular choices. However, hopping from one trending fund to another can lead to poor results. Generally, these popular funds have shown recent strong performance, attracting a lot of new investment.
Currently, a significant portion of new investments is funneled into a few mutual funds and even fewer mutual fund companies. Out of the 2,843 available funds, over $400 billion has been invested, with a third of these assets concentrated in just 50 funds. In fact, half of all investments are in the largest 100 funds.
While it's tempting to stick with market leaders, and there are advantages?"such as reduced costs and access to top money managers?"today’s popular fund may not be tomorrow’s top performer. This trend is common with best-selling funds, which often experience fluctuating success.
Therefore, purchasing an equity fund solely based on prior success isn’t the best strategy. While it's not necessary to completely dismiss popular funds, acknowledging their limitations and strengths is crucial. These funds became best-sellers for good reasons, but it's important to evaluate their fit within your own diversified portfolio rather than simply joining the crowd’s current trend.
