Mutual funds investors face long term performance challenge
The article argues that fund managers' performance over five to ten years does not guarantee an individual investor's results. It notes high sales charges and timing effects, describes fund redemption pressures from 1988 to 1990, and cites Fliesen berger data showing many funds outgaining the market over earlier periods. It also mentions New Horizons Fund suspending sales to avoid further mispricing and highlights growth funds delivering strong returns compared with the S&P 500.
