Some people believe the measure of a good fund investor is the performance of the funds he owns. Being a good fund investor is less about specific funds than about how you own those funds.
Good investors have common characteristics.
If a majority of these positive habits describe the way you invest, chances are you are a good mutual fund owner. It is a combination of investment style, assets and strategies. This is essential in developing the faith to buy the fund, and to stick with it. Good investors write down their reasons for buying a fund. That list helps them maintain balance in the future, at times when short-term losses obscure sound reasoning.
