Here's a statement of the obvious: The opinions expressed here are those of the participants, not those of the Mutual Fund Observer. We cannot vouch for the accuracy or appropriateness of any of it, though we do encourage civility and good humor.
FYI: If you’ve ever opened up your year-end mutual fund account statement, you may have noticed that the fund has made a distribution of capital gains or dividends. The rules around why distributions are made by the fund or how they are calculated can be confusing for many investors.
