How to Navigate Our Fund Tables
There’s more to picking funds than knowing the numbers. But studying the figures -- returns, fees and others -- is a great way to start. These numbers are also useful in showing how funds you already own measure up to their peers.
In various issues, Kiplinger’s Personal Finance magazine has produced four sets of mutual fund tables that lay out such useful data. Here are detailed guides for reading each:
