Are Risky Funds Too Popular Now?


Amidst the recent market upswing, are fund investors going too far? The Wall Street Journal's Shefali Anand worries that, as markets rebound, investors are overcompensating by piling too much of their portfolios into commodities, emerging market and junk bond funds. Franklin Natural Resources' Fred Fromm, Harding Loevner Emerging Markets' Simon Hallett, Matthews Asian Growth & Income' Andrew Foster, Pimco CommodityRealReturn Strategy's Mihir Worah and T. Rowe Price New Income's Dan Shackelford weigh in as experts.

Tom Lauricella, meanwhile, follows up on reports from last week that Finra is investigating the use of leveraged index ETFs.
