The Best Stock Funds For Risky Markets

TedTed
in Fund Discussions
FYI: This could be the year of the worrywarts. The recent ugliness in the market suggests that investors are becoming more sensitive to the risks building in the economy—including rising interest rates, slowing global growth, and political turmoil.

Fund managers who invest with an eye toward risk could look better than they have in years. Their funds have not necessarily sparkled during the nine-year bull market, when investors rushed headlong into riskier parts of the market and distinguishing between stocks didn’t pay off much—one reason passive funds have done so well.

Ted

    Pretty pathetic article. Little data, same old saws and no explanation of several funds listed. Barrons is going the way of the WSJ and all the old stalwarts of investigative journalism. It isn’t interesting that all of the sources of reliable insightful financial data and analysis for individual investors are dying? There is more to this than it seems
