Investment style. Investment style refers to the approach that investors, including professional money managers, take in selecting individual investments and assembling portfolios as they seek to achieve their investment goals. For example, a mutual fund that is focused on small-cap stocks might seek long-term capital appreciation by choosing aggressive growth stocks. Another small-cap fund with the same objective might build a portfolio of underpriced value stocks. Evaluating a fund's investment style -- which is typically described as aggressive, moderate, conservative, or contrarian -- is an important consideration in choosing among mutual funds and ETFs. You'll want to be sure that any fund you purchase is compatible with your individual risk tolerance. How to thank TFD for its existence?

But the stock market's problems have made an impression on Xers, with 22 percent dubbing their investment style as conservative, up from 11 percent last year. You can find no-load funds in just about any category--mid-cap funds, large-cap funds, value funds, and bond funds--so, no matter which area you have an interest in, you should be able to find one that suits your investment style. |
