What's Your Investing Style? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Fashions come and go, even in the stock market. Sometimes an approach is favored for a brief season; other times, a market niche can stay in vogue for extended runs. But some investing styles are classic, lending a signature look to most people's portfolios at one time or another. You'll always find some investors who favor the stocks of fast-growing companies, while others prefer value-priced fare. Passive investing (tracking an index) has its devotees, as does an active approach. Other fashion
Financial Stocks Are Set Up for Success. Here are 5 Funds to Consider (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Financial stocks are teed up for a good second half of the year, supported by a number of factors. For starters, stocks in the sector reported blowout earnings in the most recent quarter. On average, quarterly earnings growth compared with the same quarter a year ago has been "strong," coming in at 18%, says Matthew Bartolini, global head of research at State Street Investment Management. That outstripped analysts' expectations for earnings growth in the quarter by more than threefold. The spect

Read excerpt
Bond returns have taken it on the chin in recent months, thanks to the Iran war, higher-than-expected inflation and uncertainty about the timing and direction of the Federal Reserve's next interest rate moves.

Our favorite small-cap exchange-traded fund, the iShares Core S&P Small-Cap ETF (IJR), beat the S&P 500, too — but not by as much, with a 41.4% climb over the same 15-month period. The ETF tracks an index that sifts for profitability, unlike the Russell 2000, and much of the rally's early
Should You Buy Individual Bonds? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Is the best way to invest in bonds to buy individual IOUs or shares in a bond fund? "We get this question all the time," says Collin Martin, head of fixed-income strategy and research at the Schwab Center for Financial Research. "And every time, I give the same answer: It depends." Mutual and exchange-traded funds certainly make bond investing easy. You pay an annual fee, of course, but the initial investment outlay is low, the fund offers instant diversification, and experts do all the work. Bu
