There is never a wrong time to invest in mutual funds for retirement. So, if you're still looking for the best mutual funds, the Zacks Mutual Fund Rank can be a great guide.

The best way to shortlist great mutual funds is to ensure solid performance, diversification, and low fees. Some are better than others, but utilizing the Zacks Mutual Fund Rank, we have identified three mutual funds that could be solid additions to one's retirement portfolio.

Let's learn about some of Zacks' highest ranked mutual funds with low fees you may want to consider.

American Funds Fundamental Investors C

(AFICX - Free Report) : 1.33% expense ratio and 0.24% management fee. AFICX is classified as a Large Cap Blend fund. More often than not, Large Cap Blend mutual funds invest in companies with a market cap of over $10 billion. Buying stakes in bigger companies offer these funds more stability, and are well-suited for investors with a "buy and hold" mindset. AFICX has achieved five-year annual returns of an astounding 16.26%.

Dodge & Cox Stock Fund

(DODGX - Free Report) . Expense ratio: 0.51%. Management fee: 0.5%. DODGX 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. This fund has managed to produce a robust 20.82% over the last five years.

Fidelity Advisor Energy Fund I

(FANIX - Free Report) . Expense ratio: 0.72%. Management fee: 0.69%. Five year annual return: 31.67%. FANIX is a Sector - Energy mutual fund, which encompasses a wide range of vastly changing and vitally important industries throughout this massive global sector.
