Investing in mutual funds for retirement is never too late. And the Zacks Mutual Fund Rank can be an excellent tool for investors looking to invest in the best funds.

The easiest way to judge a mutual fund's quality over time is by analyzing its performance, diversification, and fees. Using the Zacks Mutual Fund Rank of over 19,000 mutual funds, we've identified three outstanding mutual funds that are ideally suited to help long-term investors pursue and achieve their retirement investing goals.

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

Wells Fargo Disciplined US Core Institutional

(EVSIX - Free Report) : 0.52% expense ratio and 0.35% management fee. EVSIX is part of the Large Cap Blend section, and these mutual funds most often invest in firms with a market capitalization of $10 billion or more. By investing in bigger companies, these funds offer more stability, and are often well-suited for investors with a "buy and hold" mindset. EVSIX has achieved five-year annual returns of an astounding 16.04%.

Fidelity Select Insurance

(FSPCX - Free Report) : 0.7% expense ratio and 0.69% management fee. FSPCX is a Sector - Finance mutual fund option, which provide investors with a diversified and stabilized investment approach focused on the financial space, which is a notoriously large, complex, and heavily-regulated industry. FSPCX, with annual returns of 16.19% over the last five years, is a well-diversified fund with a long track record of success.

JPMorgan Large Cap Value Fund R2

(JLVZX - Free Report) is an attractive large-cap allocation.
