If you invest in mutual funds, sooner or later you'll likely turn--with relief--to a mutual fund "supermarket." These are virtual bazaars that offer one-stop shopping for several thousand funds from different families. Brokers like Schwab, E-Trade and TD Waterhouse, and the large fund shops like Fidelity, Vanguard and T. Rowe Price all offer them.

The Motley Fool - We often warn investors to be wary of mutual funds with high turnover. Speedy turnover means the managers are rapidly jumping in and out of various investments -- rather than sticking with them -- and generating steep commission costs and tax hits along the way. We also urge investors themselves not to churn their own portfolios. If you don't have the patience to wait for the companies you believe in to perform -- well, then, you're really just speculating.
