Abstract
There are two main ways to evaluate the performance of an open-end investment company or mutual fund. The first is to read the prospectus that every fund is required to issue. The performance history of the fund, along with the fund’s investment objective and expenses, are included in the first several pages of the prospectus. The second is to use a professional reference service . These keywords were added by machine and not by the authors. This process is experimental and the keywords may be updated as the learning algorithm improves.
A significance statement is not available in the OpenAlex record.
A contribution statement is not available in the OpenAlex record.
Method details are not available in the OpenAlex metadata.
Findings are not separately available in the OpenAlex metadata.
Limitations are not available in the OpenAlex metadata.
