Submitted by admin on Tue, 12/29/2009 - 18:19By James Blitz in London and Ben Hall in Paris
The French are markedly more pessimistic about their prospects for the coming decade than their counterparts in Europe or the US, fearing they will have a progressively lower living standard and get less state help, according to a new opinion poll.
A Harris poll for the Financial Times asked people in Britain, France, Germany, Italy, Spain and the US whether they felt they were better off than 10 years ago, and to assess how they will have fared by 2020.

Explain Index Funds and ETFs
Submitted by admin on Tue, 07/14/2009 - 00:57Index Funds
An index fund is a "passively" managed mutual fund that tries to mirror the performance of a specific index, such as the S&P 500 or the Dow Jones Industrial Average. Since index funds attempt to mirror a stock index, decisions about which stocks to buy and sell are automatic for the fund and transactions are infrequent. This means that index funds do not require the management of a professional money manager, and so they are said to be "passively managed" (while any fund that requires a manager to select stocks is said to be "actively managed").
