How does mutual fund pricing work? When you buy a mutual fund, you are buying shares of a portfolio of investments that is managed by a team of professional investors. The price of a mutual fund share is the fund's net asset value (NAV) per share, which is calculated by adding up the value of all the securities in the fund's portfolio and dividing by the number of shares outstanding.
The NAV is calculated at the end of every trading day, and that is the price you will pay or receive when you buy or sell mutual fund shares. Because the NAV is calculated daily, the price you pay for mutual fund shares will fluctuate from day to day.
When you buy mutual fund shares, you may pay a sales charge, which is a commission that is paid to the broker who sells you the shares. The sales charge is usually a percentage of the amount you invest, and it is deducted from your investment. For example, if you invest $1,000 in a mutual fund with a 5% sales charge, you will actually only be investing $950, because the $50 sales charge will be deducted from your investment.
Some mutual funds do not have sales charges, and some have reduced sales charges, depending on how you purchase the shares. For example, you may be able to avoid a sales charge if you purchase shares directly from the mutual fund company, or if you invest a certain amount of money.
What is swing pricing?
Swing pricing is a method that mutual fund companies use to manage share prices. When demand for a fund's shares is high, the fund's price per share (NAV) is increased. When demand is low, the fund's price per share is decreased. This helps to ensure that the fund's NAV remains stable, even when there is significant buying or selling activity. What is the difference between forward price and the value of a forward contract? The forward price of a security is the price at which the security is trading in the forward market. The value of a forward contract, on the other hand, is the price that will be paid for the security at the expiration of the contract.
What is a contingent deferred sales charge?
A contingent deferred sales charge is a fee that may be charged on certain mutual fund shares when they are sold. The fee is contingent, meaning it is only charged if the shares are sold within a certain time period, typically 5 to 7 years. The fee is typically 1 to 2 percent of the sale price.
How is a forward price calculated? A forward price is calculated by taking the current spot price of the asset and adding the cost of carry until the delivery date of the forward contract. The cost of carry takes into account the interest rate on the underlying asset, as well as any dividends that are expected to be paid out during the holding period.
