You Need to Know Your Mutual Fund
2009-02-10 19:11:00 There are some basic things you should know about mutual funds in general and about the specific fund in which you are about to invest. Mutual funds with a bad track record are dissolved. The fund assets are absorbed by another fund and the fund manager is given a new fund to manage. Also, an average fund manager has limited experience.A mutual fund company does not want to keep a poorly performing fund in its fund family for very long. A poor performer brings down the average performance of its funds. Also, when the financial media makes comparisons between funds in the same fund category, new assets go to the best performer rather than to one near the bottom of the list. For example, if you were looking at the relative performance of 50 large-cap growth funds, and saw that fund ABC returned an average of 19% a year for the last 5 years and that fund XYZ had lost 2% a year over the same period, where would you invest your money? The company that owns XYZ would not be blind to the f...

Best Mutual Funds
2008-12-30 03:03:00 Prior to mutual fund investments one should carefully think out the exact reason for his investment, and the kind of return he is expecting based on the market data analysis. The best mutual funds have low cost, a steady record of return to its investors and efficient fund managers who act upon facts and logic.Whoever says that mutual fund investments are risk-free and dependable has either been lying or does not know much about its market behavior.The idea that a mutual fund having an active returns record will ultimately result in profit is a myth.

Real Estate Mutual funds REMFs: Fresh Avenue for retail players
2008-06-05 07:35:00 The Sebi recent move to allow mutual fund firms to play in realty space has opened up a new avenue for individual investors.It was a month ago that Sebi had approved the inclusion of real estate and issued a set of guidelines. Prior to that, only high net worth individuals were allowed to invest in realty directly. Now with realty brought under the MF guidelines, it will be much more transparent and regulated. It will encourage middle category investors to participate in the realty growth story with minimum investment. The timing is quite opportune as the real estate sector is currently experiencing strong winds from sub-prime bruised western markets, general fund crunch and a lull in the Indian IPO market. Allowing retail participation in real estate mutual funds (REMFs) will enhance liquidity and create a healthy secondary market for realty assets, observe industry analysts. The success of REMFs to a great extent would depend on how well the sponsors and fund managers voluntarily ...

Is Washington Mutual the Worst Bank Ever or What?
2008-05-24 23:03:00 So, many of you know about the congresswoman from southern California - Representative Laura Richardson - who lost her house to foreclosure last month? Well, the story gets thicker. Now it looks like she had in fact worked out a payment agreement with the lender. Despite the agreement, somebody at the bank didn't get the message and had the place sold anyway.Guess which bank it was?Thats right...Washington Mutual!!!We've had nothing but trouble with Washington Mutual (1,2,3,4,5) and hearing this news just convinces me that the bank is the worst run financial institution in America today. It is bad enough to accidentally foreclose on some poor schmuck, buts quite its another thing to do it to a member of congress. You would think they'd be smart enough to keep a special file for important people, but no, they couldn't even get that right.

How Mutual Fund Sales Are Compensated In Canada
2008-05-11 07:28:00 In Canada, most mutual funds pay what are known as 'trailers' to firms and advisors. It is a cost that can be embedded in the MER (Management Expense Ratio) of a fund through the 'service fee'. While there are a handful of mutual funds that do not charge a service fee (and resulting trailers), most of them do. (Note that F-Class funds represent versions of mutual funds that have the trailers stripped out of them so that they can be held in special 'fee-based' accounts where the service fees are charged separately.)For the funds that do have service fees, there may be five different versions of the same fund: Front-End Load, Back-End Load, No-Load, the newer Low Load (sometimes referred to as Level Load as well), and finally the F-Class versions. Let's examine the differences by seeing how a representative sample fund can be sold under each option.The Representative Sample FundOur sample fund is a Canadian Equity mutual fund that has a management fee of 1.25% and 'other fees ...

How Do You Benchmark a 130/30 Mutual Fund?
2008-05-05 00:04:00 Back in December I wrote about a type of mutual fund known as the 130/30 fund which I believe will be coming to Canada in the next few years. In a nutshell a 130/30 mutual fund allows a fund manager to not only go long the stocks he/she thinks will go up, but to also short the stocks that he/she thinks are over-priced. Every dollar invested goes into the long stocks and then the manager will short some stocks (equivalent to 30% of the money invested). When you short a stock (selling a stock you don't own), you still receive the sale proceeds. So now the manager has another 30 cents to play with, which he/she uses to go long more stocks. Hence the name 130/30. You can read my original post from back in December by clicking here.There has been some debate as to the best way to benchmark these funds' performance. Standard and Poor's indicated that they were going to launch coverage of the US 130/30 index by creating a screen for what stocks to be shorted by using the lowest 30 rated...
