Getting Started in Mutual Funds, 2nd Edition

Summary

Getting Started in Mutual Funds, Second Edition is an overhaul of the original edition that includes everything from Morningstar's new matrix of evaluating a fund's investment style to implementing mutual funds into long-term investment strategies in retirement plans. Hall, of course, keeps the basics like how to read a prospectus, how to evaluate ongoing fees and expenses, and how to evaluate a fund's performance. New chapters include information on exchange-traded funds (how they compare to mutual funds in terms of performance, risk and fees) and how mutual funds have been incorporated into commodity and futures investing.
