managed funds invest in stocks that try to beat the market, as opposed to indexed funds which ARE the market. the administative costs are considerably higher on managed funds and sometimes there are loads(upfront fees or fees when you sell)
managed funds sometimes beat the market and sometimes don't.it is very rare for any managed fund to beat the market consistantly. And because their fees are much higher, a managed fund must beat an indexed fund by 1 or 2% just to break even.
you can learn more about indexed funds by going to www.vanguard.com
there are of course others, but this is one of the big ones.
And I have to agree, the great housing boom is over.

Real estate is done put a fork in it. Trust me the house bubble has popped. If you want to get into a fund look for grown and income or international growth. Small Cap funds are good too but generally any mutual fund will give you around 8-9% a year. American funds are pretty good but please look around for yourself.
