JPMorgan Intrepid Value Fund R6
(JIVMX). Expense ratio: 0.34%. Management fee: 0.3%. Five year annual return: 11.27%. JIVMX is a part of the Large Cap Value category, and invests in equities with a market capitalization of $10 billion or more, but whose share prices do not reflect their intrinsic value.
We hope that your investment advisor (if you use one) has you invested in one or all of the top-ranked mutual funds we've reviewed. But if that isn't the case, it might be time to have a conversation or reconsider this vitally important relationship.
