Mutual Fund Performance
Returns consist of :1) dividend/interest income earned by the fund
assets; 2) realized capital gains distributions from sale of
assets within the fund; 3) change in mutual fund's share price.
Past performance reveals success of fund managers but does not guarantee future returns
Stick with No Loads or Low Loads – load funds that produce superior returns are the exception rather than the rule.
