Goldman Tells You to 'Sell' This Fund Firm


Fundsters who follow Ivy Funds [see profile] and parent Waddell & Reed [see profile] may want to look at the latest updates from Goldman Sachs' analysts. StreetInsider.com reports that the investment bank just downgraded the Midwestern brokerage and mutual fund firm from neutral to sell and lowered its price target from $34 to $21. (Waddell's shares closed at $25.26 yesterday.)

Why did Goldman smite Waddell? According to StreetInsider.com, Goldman is particularly worried about troubles at Ivy's flagship $23.0-billion, three-star Asset Strategy Fund (WASCX), which is down 13.86 percent year-to-date.
