Mutual funds overall return poor results. A good one may return 10 – 12 compounded but with inflation, that’s not much and on the risk side 30% losses or more can occur and they can last for years!
 
 Fact is most don’t even out perform the index, there are better alternatives with lower risk and higher profit potential and here we will look at one of them.
