No Load Mutual Funds
- The Best Mutual Funds Have NO Sales Loads and NO 12b-1 Fees (
Sales loads and other 12b1 fees just pay financial advisors to recommend more expensive mutual funds and ETFs
There is no good evidence that investment sales loads and other 12b-1 sales fees charged to investors result in higher mutual fund and ETF performance. In fact, the opposite has repeatedly been shown to be true.
Mutual funds have [...])
- The Best Noload Mutual Funds Have VERY LOW Portfolio Turnover (
Higher mutual fund turnover means higher securities trading costs, which reduce investment fund performance.
Short-term mutual fund trading is a zero sum game played against other very well informed mutual fund traders and other securities market traders. On average, higher mutual fund turnover is far more likely to result in lower investment fund performance -- instead [...])

Big mutual fund portfolio positions and higher percentage ownership of any company’s stocks and bonds are not good for actively managed mutual fund performance.
These big positions and high percentages are not good for your personal investment portfolio either. Large size constrains how a fund can trade and how efficiently it can do so. When an [...])

- The Best No Load Mutual Funds Have VERY LOW Investment Management Expenses (
A high ETF or mutual fund management expense ratio can only be justified, if an investment fund earns even higher net returns that compensate for these higher expenses.

- Avoid Very Small Mutual Funds and ETFs (
If you are going to invest in actively managed mutual funds, then these funds need to have a sufficiently large asset base to fund the necessary securities research and analysis.
If an active fund is too small, then fund securities research, analysis, and management quality can suffer or fees could grow. Passively managed index funds and [...])
