How to know about your mutual fund

What is a mutual fund
A mutual fund is an investment company that pools together the money of its shareholders, and invests it in a variety of stocks, bonds or money market instruments. A Mutual fund is usually managed by a professional fund manager, who is responsible for making investment decisions. By owning a share of a mutual fund an investor automatically owns all the shares the mutual fund owns.
