When you look at the performance of this ENTIRE LIST of funds -- check their FIVE YEAR RETURN.... almost all of them have an absolutely DISMAL return of 5% or less... There's only about a handful (5?) that are over 5% and most are far worse than that.

I wish I could swear right now! OMG.... really? FIVE YEARS for 5% per year... Wow! Just Wow!



Think about this -- Phillip Morse (PM) is UP 35% in ONE YEAR -- and UP 10% since the beginning of the year... and that's an old worn out SIN stock!! That's the PRICE appreciation --- not counting the dividend of 3.48%


Did I ever mention how much I hate Mutual Funds??
