don’t blindly invest in the fund with the highest returns. Invest based on the duration you want to invest for. Every person’s financial condition is different as what has given good returns in past there is no gurantee that it will give equal returns in future.
Evaluate the funds you invest in yourself – don’t invest in a fund because of its popularity.
Review your investments from time to time but not too often. Once a few months is good enough.
If you a beginner to investment in mutual funds, especially in equity mutual fund, thinking of the small/mid cap mutual funds may not be the best idea for you. These are best for investors who have very good ideas of mutual funds and the risks associates with them.
