Assignments for Chapter 12
A useful site for mutual fund investors is Brill’s Mutual
Funds Interactive. Click on “Experts” to get some
insights and advice from mutual fund professionals.
Look for the 5-year performance history of the stocks
you picked for the previous chapter assignment. Now
compare those with the performance of an index
fund, such as the Vanguard 500 index. Did your
stocks do better or worse during the past 5 years? If
you longer history is available, take a look at that
too.
