Best Mutual Funds for 2012
The best mutual funds for 2012 for you will depend on your risk tolerance and the type of investments you prefer. Will many investors seek out solid performers so like to take risk or invest based on the age. For example, if you are in your early investing years like around the age of 20 or so, you can risk more since you have time to "makeup" the earnings in later years. In this case, your mutual fund portfolio may consist of a 50-50 mix of high risk and steady stocks, while in later years when you don't want to risk the funds you have built up, you will want to stick with funds that are considered solid performers. In the years leading to retirement depending on the size of your portfolio, you may want to move into all money market type funds that make a low interest return, but are stable and rarely lose money.
