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: Equity-income mutual funds were holding their own against the broad stock market in the past 10 years — until mid-2013. Then growth stocks starting asserting their strength in the broad market. That put dividend-focused equity-income mutual funds at a disadvantage. Regards, Ted http://license.icopyright.net/user/viewFreeUse.act?fuid=MjAxNTk1ODA=
