Should You Add These 3 Top-Performing Mutual Funds to Your Portfolio? - February 28, 2020
Read MoreHide Full Article
If you're invested in any of the funds in our "Magnificent Retirement Mutual Funds" list, congratulations on owning some of the best managed and top-performing mutual funds. If you are lucky enough to discover our list of Top-Ranked Funds for the first time, it's never too late to start investing with the best, especially when it comes to your retirement.
Great performance, diversification, and low fees: it's a pretty simple formula for a great mutual fund. Some are better than others, but utilizing our Zacks Rank, we have identified three mutual funds that would make great additions to long-term investors' portfolios.
Let's break down some of the mutual funds with the highest Zacks Rank and the lowest fees.
Mar Vista Strategic Growth Institutional : 0.71% expense ratio and 0.6% management fee. MVSGX 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. MVSGX has achieved five-year annual returns of an astounding 11.52%.
Boston Trust Small Cap Fund (BOSOX - Free Report) : 1% expense ratio and 0.75% management fee. BOSOX is a Small Cap Growth mutual fund and tends to feature small companies in up-and-coming industries and markets. BOSOX, with annual returns of 10.23% over the last five years, is a well-diversified fund with a long track record of success.
PIMCO StocksPLUS Absolute Return A (PTOAX - Free Report) : 1.04% expense ratio and 0.79% management fee. PTOAX 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. With a five-year annual return of 10.52%, this fund is a well-diversified fund with a long track record of success.
We hope that your investment advisor (if you use one) has you invested in one or all of the top-ranked mutual funds we've reviewed. But if that isn't the case, it might be time to have a conversation or reconsider this vitally important relationship.
