When you are ready to invest in mutual funds, you should shop around for mutual fund quotes. By evaluating mutual fund quotes from the different mutual funds managers in the industry you will be able to see how to tap into high yield mutual funds.

Mutual fund quotes are like instant comparison shopping. The quotes tell you exactly what is happening and what you need to know right now on the mutual funds you own or are considering buying, and the prices are constantly in flux. You should develop the skill of knowing how to read these mutual fund quotes.

You need to know the net asset value (NAV) of the fund. This is the price per share you would get if you were to sell your mutual fund shares, provided you enter the order to sell before the market closes.

You would also want to know how much is the going price you pay to invest in a fund, or the public offering price (POP). This price is equivalent to the net asset value plus whatever sales fee or load you have to pay to get into the fund. Some funds may give discounts for large investments.

In effect, the net asset value is the price you get when you sell, and the public offering price is what you pay when you buy. These are exactly what bid and ask are to stock quotes.

Mutual funds gain value when the companies where they are invested generate earnings. The best performing mutual funds diversify their investments across a broad spectrum of highly profitable companies in different industries.

One of the best performing mutual funds in the industry is Janus Mutual Funds, which has grown in value almost twenty percent annually over the past fifteen years. Janus Mutual invests almost thirty percent of its funds in good quality technology stocks.
