what are mutual funds and how do they work?
user
mutual funds are professionally-managed investment vehicles that pool money from multiple investors to purchase a portfolio of securities, such as stocks and bonds. investors get a share of the fund based on their proportion of the total invested. mutual funds are managed by a fund manager, who will buy and sell investments with the goal of achieving a desired return for the fund’s investors.
