Everyone loves swag bags and goodies 🎁
What if you could get a swag bag of investments?🤔
Mutual Funds use money from investors to invest in stocks, bonds, or other assets 💰
They're super ETFs! 🦸
Instead of buying stocks and bonds and commodities and real estate yourself, you can invest in a mutual fund that holds a mix of different assets 🍪
This diversification spreads out your risk, so you're not relying on just one asset class, for example stocks, to do well 🍭
When you invest in a mutual fund, you're buying a share of the assets that the fund owns 📈
So, you get a small piece of everything the mutual fund owns 🧩
The value of your mutual fund changes based on the value of the assets that the fund owns 📉
Mutual funds are managed by professionals who decide what assets to buy and sell 🤓
Just like ETFs, mutual funds can be actively or passively managed 🏋️♂️
Actively managed = fund managers decide to buy and sell assets based on their own research and analysis 🧐
Passively managed = investments follow a specific market index, like the S&P 500 📊
Before investing in a mutual fund, it's important to research the fund and understand its fees, performance, and risks 🤔
Now you have another asset, or super asset, in your investor mind 🚀
