Which Works Best?

Today, more than $1 Trillion is flowing each year into passive investment vehicles, including Index Funds and (primarily) Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs), replacing the investment vehicle that has dominated the market for decades: Mutual Funds.

Mutual Funds have been the go-to investment for America's employees – people who are far from experts about the investment world, but who want to make their assets grow to achieve a comfortable retirement at the end of their working years. For more than 100 years, Mutual Funds were the choice of corporate America's HR departments in what they offered to employees in an 'approved' investment – one to which the company might also contribute on the employee's behalf. Unfortunately, Mutual Fund managers have let American investors down, with an average Annual Return since the 1990s of just 2.6%* – only slightly higher than the rate of inflation! *According to Dalbar, Inc.

So what's the difference between Mutual Funds, Index Funds, and Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs)? More importantly, which one is the best vehicle to use for saving/investing for retirement? In this article, we'll examine each of these popular investment vehicles and compare the advantages and disadvantages of each. We'll also discuss a unique advantage that is exclusive to Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs), which allows them to produce a return that is more than quadruple the return of the S&P 500 – with far less volatility and risk.
