Analysis of Small Cap Mutual Funds – May 2010
One of the things that a site like the Mutual Fund Site should aim to provide is sufficient analysis of mutual funds. With that in mind, we will endeavor to analyze a couple of mutual funds every week, starting with small cap mutual funds in the month of May 2010. We will post our analysis in a new area of our website, probably titled “Mutual Fund Analysis” or some such truly unique heading.
When evaluating these small cap mutual funds, we will take a look at its risk rating, rate of return and a few other key features that can help investors decide whether such a fund is where to invest. Of course, these will not change our current Top Pick 2010 funds, nor will favorable reviews necessarily lead to a Top Pick rating. We simply would like to provide commentary on the funds, highlight the risks and provide details on what we see those risks as noteworthy enough to help shape an investment decision one way or another.
With our objective in mind, we will aim to review the following types of mutual funds for the next few months:
May 2010 – Small Cap Mutual Funds
June 2010 – Value Mutual funds
July 2010 – Real Estate Mutual Funds (we are looking forward to seeing how the summer month’s housing reports will impact this sector).
The reason for the change is simply that we want to provide even more value to our site visitors. We do not want to be a purely investment site (there are plenty of those around). And given that our site is called, well, the Mutual Fund Site, we figure we should post more about mutual funds, less about investment management concepts and investment strategy.
Please feel free to post your comments at the end of this post… we look forward to receiving your feedback!
