Just so you know, Mutual funds aren´t for everyone. Personally, I wouldn't invest in them unless I had to. For more detail on that, just do a search for where I´ve addressed this question in other answers.

However to answer your question, there are several rankings of mutual funds. Here are some of the sources with appropriate link.

Lots of sources for Mutual fund reports that you´re looking for. Here are some.

The mutual fund companies are not normally ranked. The indivual funds that they offer are ranked. The companies that rank them are Morningstar and Lippers. Morningstar has built its reputation ranking mutual funds and they do an excellent job. Yahoo finance carries those rankings. 5 stars is allocated to the best funds 1 star to the worst. I believe but am not positive that the star ranking is based on the 5 year returns of the funds and the consistancy of the the returns. Each fund is ranked within its catagory, so a 5 star large cap fund may actually have a lower return than a 5 star small cap fund.

Here is the link.

Here is a link to a site that provides the Lipper rankings

I hope this offers you what you are seeking. Good luck.

I know this doesn't answer your question, but I think the idea is the same. I think the best way to invest is to see what the best traders are buying and selling and why. this is the idea behind this site. Hope this helps.
