Cornerstone Total Return Fund (CRF)

[bar1080]

CRF is a tiny, gimmicky fund with a high expense ratio. Unsophisticated investors are dazzled by the high payouts which can include Return of Capital.

Truth is, CRF's underlying assets earn about 1% or less from stocks like Apple, JNJ and Amazon. In the long run you'd do much better buying/holding an index fund with an expense ratio of <0.10%. Worse still, most traders will buy high and sell low... as almost always happens to frequent traders.
