Here's a statement of the obvious: The opinions expressed here are those of the participants, not those of the Mutual Fund Observer. We cannot vouch for the accuracy or appropriateness of any of it, though we do encourage civility and good humor.
FYI: The average dividend mutual fund has outperformed the S&P 500 in the past 15 years. Look what a $10,000 investment in the average dividend fund on Sept. 30, 1999, would have grown to by Dec. 10 this year: $26,484. The same investment in the S&P 500, a proxy for the broad stock market, would have trailed with $21,059, according to Morningstar Inc. data.
