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: Large-cap stock mutual funds have trailed small- and midcap funds for much of the past 15 years. How much would you have in your account now if you had invested $10,000 in the average large-cap fund on Dec. 31, 1999? You'd have $16,641 as of Jan. 9 this year, according to Morningstar Inc. data. That's way below the $37,371 that the average small-cap mutual fund would have generated in that time and the $34,806 that the average midcap fund would have returned.
