Reply to comment by Catchthedisc in Are index funds really better than manage funds? by Catchthedisc

Check the fund profile online. It will tell you the fund's returns over various time periods (always reported after expenses, by law) & the returns of the fund's benchmark (usually an index).

The profile will also disclose the fees, including the expense ratios, loads, 12b-1 (marketing) fees, etc.

Forgot the mention: you should have been offered a prospectus for each fund before you bought it. Each fund should also provide an annual report. This information should be in these documents, too
