Anytime you can get a fund with a sound strategy, small assets and low costs, good things are likely to happen.

High costs, the lack of an age-based option and poor investment choices make these options unappealing on almost every level.

If you thought you were the only one having a hard time finding a good small-cap fund, foreign or domestic, that was still open and not too bloated from assets, think again.

He certainly deserves points for doing so well despite the growing assets.

Too many companies had perverse incentive systems that rewarded hot short-term performance and didn't provide any penalties for long-term problems.

When gold and Russia and India are the top-performing sectors, that's a dangerous space to be investing in.

Despite those amazing returns, by and large all those funds really did was lose money for a lot of people. One of the main points of owning a mutual fund is to be able to access high-quality professional management. But you are throwing that away when you buy funds like these with some manager who just happened to get lucky.

A key challenge for investors is picking funds whose asset bases haven't become too fat to be handled effectively.

Generally you go with a manager who has a meaningful track record somewhere. It doesn't guarantee this is a smart or good manager, but at least it said I've got a few years and I can learn a lot from that.

Putnam is in the early stages of a restructuring effort aimed at providing better, more reliable performance. It may be years before Putnam funds have a lot of appeal. Stock-picking skill and experience aren't changed overnight. Even if Haldeman and (head of research Josh) Brooks succeed, it will be years before their changes can markedly improve investment results.

Generally, what you'll find is a pretty normal distribution (among socially responsible mutual funds). As far as I can tell, those screens don't have an impact positively or negatively on performance.

You have to ask yourself why you should trust the fund company.

[Because these portfolios are so large, they have to spread their dollars across many different companies. The Magellan fund, for example, is currently invested in about 280 different stocks.] The big funds are very well managed and very well diversified, ... They might fall as hard as the S&P, but there aren't a lot of big disasters there.

I don't see it having a big impact. The whole point of mutual funds is to avoid the Wall Street bias and most shops have their own in-house research. Big firms, like a Fidelity, have 200 professionals across the world so they never cared about the Street research to begin with.

Most active managers are investing in what they think is a sure thing rather than their best speculative ideas. Nobody is out there trying to be a hero right now.
