Mutual Funds are ran by mutual fund managers that group money together and invest in stocks or bonds as a group. Mutual funds are the best way to quickly and easily diversify your portfolio. Fund managers carefully choose stocks or bonds to maintain a 4-5 percent return on the entire portfolio of stocks that is in the fund. A single stock may return that or may not. Investing in several stocks evens out the return and reduces the ups and downs that an individual stock may take.  Also bond interest rates fluctuate and having many bonds together being bought and sold and maturing at different dates makes investing in the volatile bond market much easier because someone else is making sure that your money is getting reinvested and that the best bonds are being chosen.  Investing mutual funds makes that whole confusing process a lot easier.
