FYI: Many investors prefer the idea of buying a basket of stocks through a mutual fund or exchange-traded fund rather than picking and choosing individual stocks but the task of selecting the right fund can be a bit overwhelming. According to the Investment Company Institute, there are more than 8,100 mutual funds in the U.S. with combined assets of $15.94 trillion and more than 1,500 ETFs with total assets of $2.1 trillion. For some help in narrowing the field for investors, we asked some of our top fund and ETF gurus for their best investing ideas for the next 12 months. Their picks are included below.
