How to decide among the various fund managers and mutual funds?

I have found that most of the active managed mutual funds cannot beat index consistently. Is it worthwhile to still invest in mutual funds? What if my mutual fund is not actively managed or my fund manager cannot navigate the market better than a random collection of indexed stocks? How to choose among so many mutual funds and fund managers available? Form where can I receive information about the best mutual funds and fund managers that beat market index regularly and are suitable for me? Please suggest. Thanks a lot!

This is just my personal opinion ... but no ... mutual funds are no longer worth the time or money. The fund managers are making money from the fees regardless of performance. I have found that generally, I always out perform almost every fund out there. I don't think there is one 'professional' fund that I can match up against at Covestor? That I don't beat even with my small buy and hold portfolios.

Re:How to decide among the various fund managers and mutual funds?

Whew! So many questions! Dear friend, take some breath. Well, there many websites available online that gives information to its subscribers about the very best mutual funds and the savvy stock pickers who run them. I am a subscriber of fundmojo.com. It provides me services, tools and newsletters to discover best mutual funds and fund managers suitable for me. Hope it would be helpful for you too. Best of Luck!
