Are mutual funds a better performance value then Treasury bonds?


Are mutual funds a better performance value then Treasury bonds?

depends on the fund. many funds underperform the market indexes. it also depends on your objective. are you young, then if so you might want a basket of agressive funds for your future. if you are living off a fixed income in retirement then Treasury bonds would be much safer. check out i bonds as they currently yield over 6%. you need to hold them at least 5 years to avoid penalties, but they have inflation protection and you dont pay taxes on income until cashed in.

Absolutely.
