OT: I am having a lot of tsoras (trouble) with my family's mutual funds. It's a fight between me and me. Based on our family goals, the risks we want to take, we believed a couple of equity-income & stable growth funds would and will serve our objectives. Maybe they are. And yet I am very unsatisfied. I have three funds, all with good historical performance. This year they returned 7-10% according to the statements I rec'd this week. I haven't a clue what real performance for other people's funds is - but I see returns like 20%, 40%, 100% - fairly commonly among the choices within fund families.

I just can't tolerate 7% in this market. Getting what I asked for, but not what I expected. And I just won't have it. I'm too jealous of other people's performance. Sympathetic -but not supportive- of professional money managers who have delivered me these 'poor' numbers in this, possibly the best bull market for stocks (well, some stocks- (that's the problem)) in decades.

So I'm transferring out. Just as I expect many others are doing. Which
puts even more pressure on beat down stocks of good companies.
