Is this a right time to invest in mutual funds? If yes then in which?

I actually don't like mutual funds - too much to write about that right now. I prefer non -emotional index funds.

I have tons of posts on this question. May need to mull through my posts a bit, but here is the skinny.

1. Max out ROTH IRA for each of you first.

2. Consider investing in the S&P 500 Index (no load fund). 80% of all fund managers can't beat this historical index, so I tell people why not just own the index?

3. Dollar Cost Average each month. That way when the market is high you are buying less shares. And when the market is low, you are buying more shares at a discount.

Good Luck!

The best time to invest is when the market is open...

Seriously, if you have a long-term need that will be affected by inflation, the Market, via mutual funds, will be one the best ways to multiply your dollars.

Picking a fund is a lot like picking a apouse, there should be a lot of research into it and even after all of that, there are still no guarantees. The fund and its objectives should also match your risk tolerance.

There can not be a generalised advice without knowing your risk profile, investment horizon and returns expectations.

Approach an AMFI registered advisor staying nearby your place.

If you want to invest in a mutual fund, put your money in SPY.
Saves yourself fees, and the gross majority of funds come nowhere close to beating it.

If you feel positive on the economy, just put your money there

I despise mutual funds...too diversified for my own personal liking.

It is definitely the time to invest. Which ones depends on your goals, the younger you are, the more leaning towards small cap because they riskier than large cap funds. also make at least 1/3 of your porfolio international funds.

The market appears be close to bottoming out some say and bargains can be had. Some say now's the time, others say wait a couple more weeks. Watch the market.
