There's accountability in the mutual fund industry. And they've been tremendous engines of wealth for people and they're going to continue to be so.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
The mutual fund industry and small investors are very relentless and very unforgiving if people don't perform.
Mutual funds give people the sense that they're investing with the big boys and that they're really not at a disadvantage entering the stock market.
It's the company itself, but most of these mutual fund companies, the guy who runs the company is just a fact totem and the guy who runs the money is the power. But we really don't know who they are.
Mutual funds have historically offered safety and diversification. And they spare you the responsibility of picking individual stocks.
I just don't like mutual funds. I think they're a rip-off.
Improving oversight of hedge funds and other private funds is vital to their sustainability and to our economy's stability.
Many hedge fund managers have become billionaires; perhaps this - plus their reputations as the smartest guys in the room - is why they have captured the investing public's imagination.
Mutual fund managers want your money in their funds. They get paid based on assets under management.
Despite all the media coverage, glitz and glam of hedge funds, they have not done well for their investors. They have high - some say excessively high - fees; their short- and long-term performance has been poor.
Mutual funds dare to be average. In fact, they dare to be lousy. They have long since ceased striving for anything resembling perfection when it comes to managing your money.
