Still in the jaws of the bear

By David Snowball

These 263 funds had not, as of 4/30/2016, yet regained the NAV they had at the start of the current market cycle in October, 2007. They’re arranged alphabetically but don’t include share class designations. Funds on a roller coaster – those that crashed in the financial crisis then crashed again afterward are highlighted in orange. Diversified domestic funds are highlighted in blue.

APR is a fund’s annualized percent return from 11/07 under 04/16. Max DD is the fund’s maximum drawdown or greatest percentage decline, during that period. MAX date is the month in which the fund bottomed. Bear rating is the fund’s performance during all bear market months from 11/07 to now, not just during extended market declines. The worst bear market performers are in the 10th decile.

All data is derived from the Lipper database, as of 4/30/16.

About David Snowball

David Snowball, PhD (Massachusetts). Cofounder, lead writer. David is a Professor of Communication Studies at Augustana College, Rock Island, Illinois, a nationally-recognized college of the liberal arts and sciences, founded in 1860. For a quarter century, David competed in academic debate and coached college debate teams to over 1500 individual victories and 50 tournament championships. When he retired from that research-intensive endeavor, his interest turned to researching fund investing and fund communication strategies. He served as the closing moderator of Brill’s Mutual Funds Interactive (a Forbes “Best of the Web” site), was the Senior Fund Analyst at FundAlarm and author of over 120 fund profiles. David lives in Davenport, Iowa, and spends an amazing amount of time ferrying his son, Will, to baseball tryouts, baseball lessons, baseball practices, baseball games … and social gatherings with young ladies who seem unnervingly interested in him.
