Zacks Equity Research
·2-min read

Investing in mutual funds for retirement is never too late. And the Zacks Mutual Fund Rank can be an excellent tool for investors looking to invest in the best funds.

The best way to shortlist great mutual funds is to ensure solid performance, diversification, and low fees. Some are better than others, but utilizing the Zacks Mutual Fund Rank, we have identified three mutual funds that could be solid additions to one's retirement portfolio.

Here are the funds that have achieved the Zacks Mutual Fund Rank #1 (Strong Buy) and have low fees.

Columbia Dividend Income I3 (CDDYX) has a 0.55% expense ratio and 0.53% management fee. CDDYX is a part of the Large Cap Value category, and invests in equities with a market capitalization of $10 billion or more, but whose share prices do not reflect their intrinsic value. With yearly returns of 9.67% over the last five years, this fund clearly wins.

Fidelity Advisor Technology M (FATEX): 1.23% expense ratio and 0.52% management fee. FATEX is a Sector - Tech mutual fund, allowing investors to own a stake in a notoriously volatile sector with a much more diversified approach. FATEX, with annual returns of 17.47% over the last five years, is a well-diversified fund with a long track record of success.

MFS Mass Investors Growth Stock R1 (MIGMX): 1.46% expense ratio and 0.33% management fee. MIGMX is a Large Cap Growth option; these mutual funds purchase stakes in numerous large U.S. companies that are expected to develop and grow at a faster rate than other large-cap stocks. With a five-year annual return of 12.21%, this fund is a well-diversified fund with a long track record of success.
