I'm young, and have a fair percentage of my 401(k) in the Calamos Growth A fund. "Experts" seem split on this stock, with many expecting it to be a great long-term producer, and an equal amount expecting it to collapse. What are your educated thoughts?

Being young, I can afford to put more money in growth stocks and play a little riskier, but which growth fund(s) suit a 20-something like me?

My plan offers the following growth options:

-Victory Diversified Stock A (Large-cap Blend)
-Calamos Growth A (Mid-cap Growth)
-Laudus International MarketMasters (Foreign Large-cap Growth)

Calamos has had greatlong term results, but the last 14 months have been rough. I believe the fund had a lot of new investments in the fund and the fund had difficulty managing the new money. Some funds are able to overcome this obstacle, while some never can.

Also, growth has been lagging since the crash in 2000, some people are predicting that growth will come back strong in '07 or '08.

Bottom line, diversify.

I congratulate on your selection to initiate making an investment. i imagine the quicker you initiate the more beneficial that is. besides the indisputable fact that, i'm not a huge fan of mutual money. For once, most of the mutual money will lag in the back of an index fund after factoring in for administration expenditures. 2d, i imagine you need to do a a lot more beneficial pastime making an investment for your self straight away interior the inventory market presented you've performed sufficient study. So i'd say, index money are a thanks to bypass considering they offer more beneficial returns than mutual money. interior the recommend time, study study study to make certain extra about the inventory market. save in options, the inventory market is the basically market the position shoppers run for the exits at the same time as there's a sale (refering to the corrections, drops, and so on). So being a contrarian would get advantages you.
