What would $10,000 invested in a mutual fund in todays market return quaterly. Just ballpark figure.?

It varys way too much. Some mutuals are up 30% and some are down 30%. But the benchmark is the SP 500 (SPY) and something like 75% of active mutual funds (as oppesed to passive ETFs run by mutual fund companies) can't beat SPY's average of 12.5% over the long term. Spy would make you on a long term average of $312.5 per quarter in its first year. Obviously compound gains would increase that number every year.

Depends on the fund, but say it was a good one, right now I'd say 2-3% quarterly

$250

Maybe 8-12% yrly, so just a couple percent in a qtr.

The is a wide range of possible returns for mutual funds invested in stocks. There is really no way to predict what will happen in the next quarter. Please get the following book: The Only Guide to a Winning Investment Strategy You'll Ever Need by Larry E. Swedroe.

You need a solid core investment with low expenses. Check out Fidelity.com and the Four in One Index fund, symbol FFNOX. Also, check out Vanguard.com, their Life Strategy Growth fund, symbol VASGX is a great balanced fund.
