The funds in our "Magnificent Retirement Mutual Funds" list are among the best managed and best performing mutual funds available. If you are just finding out about our Top-Ranked Funds list, we welcome you!
How can you tell a good mutual fund from a bad one? It's pretty basic: if the fund is diversified, has low fees, and shows strong performance, it's a keeper. Of course, there's a wide range, but using our Zacks Rank, we've found three mutual funds that would be great additions to any long-term retirement investors' portfolios.
Let's break down some of the mutual funds with the highest Zacks Rank and the lowest fees.
Janus Henderson Global Technology T (JAGTX) has a 0.92% expense ratio and 0.64% management fee. JAGTX is a Sector - Tech mutual fund, allowing investors to own a stake in a notoriously volatile sector with a much more diversified approach. With yearly returns of 20.22% over the last five years, this fund clearly wins.
Hartford Core Equity Y (HGIYX) is a stand out amongst its peers. HGIYX is classified as a Large Cap Blend fund. More often than not, Large Cap Blend mutual funds invest in companies with a market cap of over $10 billion. Buying stakes in bigger companies offer these funds more stability, and are well-suited for investors with a "buy and hold" mindset. With five-year annualized performance of 12.71%, expense ratio of 0.43% and management fee of 0.34%, this diversified fund is an attractive buy with a strong history of performance.
MassMutual Select Mid Cap Growth I (MEFZX) is an attractive large-cap allocation. MEFZX is a Mid Cap Growth mutual fund. These mutual funds choose companies with a stock market valuation between $2 billion and $10 billion. MEFZX has an expense ratio of 0.71%, management fee of 0.68%, and annual returns of 12.99% over the past five years.
