Tom Madell: Surprise Performance: The Fund Giants Don't Always Win
FYI: I like broad index funds/ETFs, such as the Vanguard Total Stock Market Index Investor (VTSMX) (or higher minimum Admiral shares) and the SPDR S&P 500 ETF (SPY), and it appears that many investors agree; these two are among the funds with most investor assets. I like them, yes, but I can't say that I truly love them. Here's why. Regards, Ted http://funds-newsletter.com/jan18-newsletter/jan18-new.htm
