Research, today were reviewing our recently

4Penny Stock Mutual Funds - Love Or Hate?
5Do You Hate Penny Stock Mutual Funds? You
Should. Heres Why
6Welcome back everyone. I hope you had the
opportunity to enjoy the beautiful Memorial Day
Weekend. I took the family up north to the
cabin. Flagstaff, Arizona is a wonderful
retreat, away from the heat of the desert.
7Clean air, the fresh smell of the pines, and cool
weather it doesnt get much better. The dogs
loved hiking the trails and the horses were full
of enthusiasm!
8But now, were back to work today and today Im
going to cover something very important. Im
going to share with you why Penny Stock Mutual
Funds are a bust in my mind.
9It doesnt take a rocket scientist to see the
problems but these funds still manage to gather
hundreds of millions of dollars from investors.
Its mind boggling. But before we get there, some
important news
10Russell Indexes Rebalance In 3 days Watch Out!
11Thats right. The famous Russell family of stock
indexes rebalances their holdings at the end of
May so you probably want to sidestep trading for
a few days.
12As many of you know, Russell indexes are widely
tracked by Wall Street and a number of ETFs have
popped up following these indexes very
closely. The problem is there are a number of
stocks on the bubble.
13See, Russell chunks their indexes by number of
companies For example the penny stock index we
follow is the Russell 2000 Small Cap Index RUT.
14The Russell Funds take the top 3000 stocks in the
market and then they rip out the BOTTOM 2,000
stocks to make up the Russell 2,000.
15As you probably guessed, theres a lot more than
3,000 stocks trading on the markets so where
they draw the line is critical.
16Ive heard rumors of fund managers buying some
stocks and shorting others to make sure some
their favorite portfolio stocks make the cut
17Barrons recently noted When a change to a
widely followed stock index is announced, traders
can step in to buy shares before they enter the
benchmark, driving up the price. .
18some funds have the potential to spur
exaggerated, if temporary, price swings in some
illiquid stocks. As you can imagine, theres a
lot of money on the line. And on Wall Street
that causes ethics go out the window! So trade
carefully
19The Good - Penny Stock Mutual Funds
20Penny stock mutual funds are very popular right
now and despite my aggressive headline for this
article, in some cases penny stock mutual funds
have their place.
21For example if youre not a penny stock trader,
dont watch the stock market, dont do any
research, and generally follow the advice of
others then Penny Stock Mutual Funds are
probably good for you.
22Theyre an easy way to get into a lot of microcap
stocks they provide extensive diversification.
23So, if thats you take a look at adding some of
these small cap mutual funds to a part of your
portfolio. Please, please, please dont invest
your life savings in these mutual funds.
24Heres a few you might look at AllianzGI Ultra
Microcap Fund AUMIX Royce Micro-Cap Fund
RYOTX Wasatch Micro Cap Fund WMICX
25 T. Rowe Price Small-Cap Value Mutual Fund
PRSVX Bridgeway Ultra-Small Company Market
BRSIX There are a bunch of others, but thats
the start of a good list of penny stock mutual
funds.
26 Now personally, I think these Penny Stock Mutual
funds are the devil. Seriously, heres why
27I Hate Penny Stock Mutual Funds And You Should
Too!
28Alright, Im pulling the gloves off. I hate penny
stock mutual funds and heres why. One They are
too diversified. Two You can do better on your
own, and Three They charge ridiculous fees!
29Lets look at these three problems one at a
time. First the diversification issue. Ill be
the first to tell you a properly diversified
portfolio is a must especially for trading penny
stocks
30But the safety diversification gives you also
kills your upside potential. Heres an example
If you own 10 penny stocks with 10 of your
portfolio in each investment youre taking on
some risk, but youre also positioned to capture
big upside.
31If one of those penny stocks jumps 1,000 (which
does happen) youve just DOUBLED the size of your
portfolio! Do the math. Youll see what I mean.
32But take one of these penny stock mutual funds
theyre too diversified. The Royce fund holds
196 different stocks. The largest holding is
1.5 of the portfolio.
33If that one stock the one they own the most of
jumps 1,000... the entire fund gains a paltry
15. That is if the other stocks dont drag down
the performance! What youre doing is trading
away the potential for huge, life changing gains
for the safety of diversification.
34If thats not bad enough, we come to problem 2
you can do it better yourself. I honestly believe
the average investor can out manage and out pick
every mutual fund on the planet. You know why?
Because its your money and nobody cares for it
more than you will.
35Consider this in the last 10 years the Wasatch
Micro Cap fund has shown annual returns of
7.3... not bad. Until you look at the Russell
2000. That unmanaged index has returned 9.18.
36Of course they dont say if thats BEFORE or
after expenses but either way, does it
matter? Why pay someone who cant beat the
averages. Oh, by the way, most mutual fund
managers dont beat their benchmarks.
37Speaking of expenses this brings us to my major
objection number 3. You know I saved the best
for last. The expenses charged by penny stock
mutual funds are ridiculous.
38 AllianzGI Ultra Microcap Fund AUMIX charges 2
EVERY YEAR Royce Micro-Cap Fund RYOTX
charges 1.52 EVERY YEAR Wasatch Micro Cap
Fund WMICX charges 1.9 EVERY YEAR!
39 T. Rowe Price Small-Cap Value Mutual Fund
PRSVX charges 0.96 EVERY YEAR! Bridgeway
Ultra-Small Company Market BRSIX charges 0.72
EVERY YEAR!
40Look, if youre making money hand over fist, good
for you you can probably afford to give away 1
or 2 of your PORTFOLIO every year. Not me. I
prefer to trade my own penny stocks using a cheap
online broker and save myself the crazy fees.
41If thats not enough to make you hate penny stock
mutual funds I dont know what is. Now before we
go, I want to share an insider piece of advice
easily worth 1,000 bucks
