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: A Swedish class-action claim threatens to change the face of the mutual fund industry, in Europe at first and then, perhaps, globally. If the Swedish Shareholder Association succeeds in its complaint, it will get harder for funds to charge high fees for active management while actually closely following their benchmark indexes..
