[quote=Anonymous]in general. One comment about taxes that 22:14 brings up. If you are in 401k or IRA then there is no tax incurred when you sell (also if you have a loss there is no tax loss to record). So there you can swap out funds quite painlessly. In taxable accounts you will pay capital gains which 15%-20% typically. I have switched to ETFs away from managed mutual funds. Very happy. But they had fees around 1%. Vanguard index funds have very low fees. ETFs are different in mutual funds in the spread. So if you do go with ETF you need to look at the spread (buy-sell). On larger ETFs I don't think this is an issue.[/quote]
