I like to look at the valuation ratios of the fund compared to funds in the same category. But make sure you use the same site for comparisons, because different sites will calculate the ratios a little different.
I also like using the Instant X-Ray at Morningstar.

You mentined holdings. I like to see what % of the total assets is composed of the Top 10 holding. If it too high, I typically look elsewhere. My personal preference.

If you want to get more knee deep into this stuff you could also look at the beta and sharp ratios of these funds, If your in for the long haul i would suggest just buying a market index fund or spider etf. Why try to outdo the market in the long run, more often than not you will not outperform the market. |

Also look at Exchange-Traded Funds (ETF). They trade like stocks and you avoid the commissions that make the average mutual fund under perform the market. |

The most important decision is what kind of mutual fund: large value, small growth, international, etc. etc. You might want to check out a good book on asset allocation.
Once you've determined a category like large value, then put all your favorite picks into a morningstar portfolio, customize your criteria for comparison in "my view" and you can compare easily.
The best overall fund companies are Vanguard and T. Rowe Price. If you buy your funds directly from the fund company, you don't have to pay any purchase fees. |

What part of the market do you want to focus on? Do you want and index fund (something that buys essentially the NASDAQ or Dow Jones) or do you want a sector fund that looks at tech, medicine, green issues? Index funds generally have low expense ratios and have returns that beat or match the total stock market. Sector funds can be riskier because you are focused on on particular part of the market.
Mutual funds are great long term investments. Keep that in mind when choosing them. You may want to break your investments into 4 sectors: total stock market, growth, international and small cap stocks. Hope this helps. |

Hello,
I completely agree with wanting to invest your money. Afterall, what's the point of making money if you can't make more money with your money (got that?)? Anyway, I've tried all different investments from stocks and bonds to IRA's, 401k's, and real estate. I'm really a big fan of diversification.
However, the only investment I've really been happy with so far is real estate. Over the past 5 years, I've bought 3 different properties (all have tenants, and I'm making more than the mortgage payments on 2 properties).
The 3rd property I got was using Carleton Sheets no money down methodology (he's a GURU in real estate, and yes, his methods do work!). You can actually buy a property for absolutely nothing down (NO MONEY FROM YOUR OWN POCKET). I payed over $500 for his course 3 years ago, and I just saw it online for $9.95!!!! This is a steal at $9.95 (I'm actually going to buy it for my friends for Christmas). It was featured on TV, so I got the website from there.
Before you invest in anything, I highly suggest the Carleton sheets course. http://www.alllsite.info/real-estate.php |
