If you're planning 10, 20, 30 years down the road, and you're trying to decide on mutual funds to invest in over a very long stretch, we've got some good news, and some bad news.
The bad news is: There's no "silver bullet." What might be a great fund for your neighbor might not be the one for you - after all, your goals, risk tolerance and investment horizon might be different.
The good news is, your search isn't going to be that difficult. Many of the best mutual funds to invest in, if you're looking well down the road, have a few characteristics in common:
Below-average expenses: If all else is equal, lower expenses translate to superior long-term returns because more of your investment will be compounded over time. It's a little more difficult to pinpoint this relationship when you're comparing actively managed funds, which have different (and sometimes changing) management teams. But generally speaking, even the best fund managers will have a harder time outperforming their benchmark and peers with high expenses.10-year history minimum: If you're investing for a long time, you want an idea of how management conducts itself over a long time horizon. You want to evaluate funds been in existence for at least the past decade.
Manager tenure (actively managed funds): That said, it's hard to know what to expect if a 50-year-old fund has a brand-new manager at the helm. So for actively managed funds, you ideally want managers that have been around for at least most of the past decade, if not longer. (You can obviously ignore this guidance for index funds.)
Top-tier performance in their category: In general, past performance is not indicative of future results. Still, strong management teams should outperform over time, and you want to compare apples to apples, picking funds that can beat other similar funds.
Here, we look at

 It's a mixed bag when it comes to opinions on penny stocks. These tickers trading for less than $5 per share divide Wall Street like no other; market watchers either love them or hate them.It's easy to understand the appeal. First and foremost, you get more bang for your buck. On top of this, with shares changing hands for bargain prices, even what seems like miniscule share price appreciation can translate to monstruous percentage gains. For some, however, the risk poses too great a threat to ignore. When you look under the hood of these low-priced names, you might find very real problems like poor fundamentals or looming headwinds.So, how are investors supposed to spot the penny stocks poised to go from rags to riches? By turning to the pros.With this in mind, we wanted to take a closer look at three penny stocks getting love from the pros, namely the analysts at investment firm Cowen. According to the firm, all three could soar in the year ahead. Using TipRanks' database, we learned why Cowen analysts are pounding the table despite the risk involved.Neos Therapeutics (NEOS)Developing and commercializing innovative products, Neos Therapeutics wants to make a significant difference in the lives of patients with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) and other central nervous system (CNS) conditions.

Shares of Intel Corp. swung higher in afternoon trading Monday, after The Wall Street Journal reported that the semiconductor maker was near a deal to sell its memory-chip unit for roughly $10 billion to South Korea's SK Hynix Inc. The stock surged 2.4%, enough to pace the Dow Jones Industrial Average's gainers, after trading down 0.3% just prior to the WSJ report being released. The WSJ report, citing people familiar with the matter, said the companies are in talks on a deal that could be announced as soon as Monday. Specifics of a potential deal, including what exactly SK Hynix would be buying, couldn't be learned. Intel's stock has lost 7.4% year to date, while the PHLX Semiconductor Index has soared 30.4% and the Dow has eased 0.4%.
