As our job is to keep you in the know, we are going to give you Molifeney’s top 5 Index Funds for you to be in. It was difficult okay — impossible — to find 5 Star funds in each category, so we changed the criteria to reflect the highest Morningstar rated fund in that category. We subtracted out the low fee criteria because index funds in general are about as low fee as they come. Let’s get this money!
