The funds in our "Magnificent Retirement Mutual Funds" list are among the best managed and best performing mutual funds available. If you are just finding out about our Top-Ranked Funds list, we welcome you!

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.

Let's break down some of the mutual funds with the highest Zacks Rank and the lowest fees.

MainStay Large Cap Growth R6 (MLRSX - Free Report) : 0.64% expense ratio and 0.62% management fee. MLRSX 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 annual returns of 13.07% over the last five years, this fund is a winner.

Janus Henderson Enterprise D (JANEX - Free Report) . Expense ratio: 0.81%. Management fee: 0.64%. JANEX is a Mid Cap Growth mutual fund. These funds aim to target companies with a market capitalization between $2 billion and $10 billion that are also expected to exhibit more extensive growth opportunities for investors than their peers. This fund has managed to produce a robust 14.8% over the last five years.

Harbor Global Leaders Investor . Expense ratio: 1.27%. Management fee: 0.75%. Five year annual return: 10.37%. HGGIX is a Global - Equity mutual fund, which invests their assets in large markets, leveraging the global economy.
