No-load mutual funds, which bypass brokers and sales charges, have posted stronger net inflows and higher relative performance as compared with load-bearing funds. In early 1960s industry data, no-load groups saw net inflows outpacing redemptions, aided by direct advertising and sales to investors, while brokers resisted commissionless deals. Rowe Price and others report sustained shareholder loyalty and better long term investor mood despite mixed performance rankings across funds.
