Editorial Review:

Product Description:
Gene Walden is a master of summarizing volumes of objective data to determine “the best” in a crowded field of investment possibilities. For the fourth time, he turns his attention to helping investors identify the best mutual funds out of more than 8,500 possibilities.

Following his rigorous and proven model based on stringent criteria, Walden objectively rates the best mutual funds to own. Each fund receives an in-depth profile, ratings based on performance, consistency, and fees/ services/ management, a fund overview, and more.

The 100 Best Mutual Funds includes nearly every type of fund-blue chip, small stock, growth and income, sector, global, bond funds and more. Walden also includes a no-nonsense overview of investing in mutual funds and insights from 20 of the nation’s top portfolio managers. The author includes rankings divided into types of funds as well as an alphabetic listing.

Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Seems obvious that Walden used Investors FastTrack
The book is kinda of a dump of data and conclusions that the FastTrack people originated years ago. Skip the book and go to the source.



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - How can the author include so many load funds?
I can't understand how a book that claims to offer/judge the best mutual funds in America can include any non-speciality load funds in the group. The author lists many equity funds with large loads and returns that are less than many no load funds he didn't list. Given the fact that there are so many no load funds with outstanding performance it just does not make any sense to include load funds in the book.



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - maybe good, but...
This book's title should really read "the 100 best (mostly loaded) mutual funds to own in america". I would not recommend it if you are building your portfolio with no-load mutual funds. Kirk Kazanjian's book would be a good alternative.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Very informitive
As a new investor this book was extremely helpful for me. This book is easy to follow and gives the information needed to compare funds. 2 of the 3 funds I invested in were recommended by this book.
