Mutual Funds
Your $lice ... in Mutual Funds
A guide through the fact and fiction
of mutual fund trading.
   Although mutual funds can gain 25% to 50% in value within months, fund managers still advise investors to buy and hold for the long term. “Your $lice of the Pie...in Mutual Funds” will help both novice and veteran traders realize that time and taxes should not be limiting factors for pocketing capital gains each time they are available.
 
   During recent large-scale swings in the stock market, many “long-term” investors watched paper profits wildly grow and then disappear while fitfully holding on for possible future gains. Those who traded in mutual funds to make the most money, however, enjoyed large profits as securities climbed to record levels. These smart investors successfully sold within days or weeks, then bought again at lower prices. (Most mutual funds carry no commission fees when traded directly through the funds.)
 
   With this guide you will grasp that the “term” of an investment should last only as long as the general market trend is with you. You will learn to research and evaluate the fundamental and technical elements that drive fund prices. You will also discover the diverse selection of fund types, the best time to check prices and when to place buy and sell orders for maximum gains.
 
   Much of the content focuses on the creation of daily charts that reflect the movement of your chosen funds. By studying the $lice examples, readers will quickly understand that “long-term” investment is “just a series of short terms strung together.”
 
   A few excerpts:

  • “During the sample time period active mutual fund traders could easily have pocketed from 40% to 50% in real gains by taking their profits (vs. only 4% gain available by holding for the long term).”

  • “Almost everything a trader needs to know about any mutual fund is already in its current market price.”

  • “By the time the individual investor receives a ‘tip’ on investments, it’s probably already too late to be of much value.”
