I have shown you when a Dow index fund has stunk and given you several examples of individual stocks, including blue chips, that have tanked. I want to see statistics of &quot;stocks&quot; in the generic sense that is always bandied about that have outperformed precious metals.</p><p><br /></p><p>In the meantime, here&#039;s something to mull on-- the performance of the BEST mutual funds over the past 5 years. While most have done well over the past year (as have gold and silver), the 5-year performance of nearly every one of them leaves a lot to be desired.</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="http://money.cnn.com/magazines/moneymag/bestfunds/2008/indexfunds.html" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://money.cnn.com/magazines/moneymag/bestfunds/2008/indexfunds.html" rel="nofollow">http://money.cnn.com/magazines/moneymag/bestfunds/2008/indexfunds.html</a>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
