How can you tell a good mutual fund from a bad one? It's pretty basic: if the fund is diversified, has low fees, and shows strong performance, it's a keeper. Of course, there's a wide range, but using our Zacks Rank, we've found three mutual funds that would be great additions to any long-term retirement investors' portfolios.

Here are the funds that have achieved the #1 (Strong Buy) Zacks Rank and have low fees.

Lord Abbett Convertible Fund P (LCFPX - Free Report) : 1.31% expense ratio and 0.7% management fee. LCFPX is categorized as a Convertible Bonds fund, and in the fixed income world, these funds are quite unique. These types of securities are a hybrid, meaning they have components of both fixed income and equity. LCFPX has achieved five-year annual returns of an astounding 10.53%.

Janus Henderson Forty A (JDCAX - Free Report) : 1.04% expense ratio and 0.63% management fee. JDCAX is a Large Cap Growth option; these mutual funds purchase stakes in numerous large U.S. companies that are expected to develop and grow at a faster rate than other large-cap stocks. With yearly returns of 14.57% over the last five years, JDCAX is an effectively diversified fund with a long reputation of solidly positive performance.

Neuberger Berman Guardian Investor (NGUAX - Free Report) is an attractive large-cap allocation. NGUAX is a part of the Large Cap Value category, and invests in equities with a market capitalization of $10 billion or more, but whose share prices do not reflect their intrinsic value. NGUAX has an expense ratio of 0.87%, management fee of 0.76%, and annual returns of 12.35% over the past five years.
