Index Funds

An index fund is a type of mutual fund that is designed to replicate the performance of a specific market index. The fund is managed by investing in the same securities that make up the chosen index, allowing investors to track the overall market performance. This passive investment strategy is often favored by those seeking to diversify their portfolio and minimize risk. Additionally, index funds typically have lower fees and expenses compared to actively managed funds.
