Mutual funds have proven to be an extremely convenient and attractive way for people to invest in a variety of different securities. More than 40 million people, or one out of every three households in America, invest in mutual funds. Currently, over $3 trillion is invested in mutual funds.
The first mutual fund was established in the United States in 1924. Their popularity over the past 15 years has soared because mutual funds make it easy and less costly for investors to meet their goals for capital growth, income and/or income preservation. These funds bring the benefits of diversification and money management to the individual investor by providing many different types of growth potential, furthering chances to diversify for different objectives.
