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: At this point, everyone pretty much knows that index funds are some of the best building blocks for a balanced portfolio. Index funds offer instant diversification, giving investors exposure to hundreds of stocks or bonds in a single fund. And better yet — they typically outperform active managers over the long haul.
