Blogging Funds or Blogging for Funds?


There's a new kid on the mutual fund industry's block. Barron's Mike Hogan wrote a feature Monday on Mark Smith, a.k.a. Trader Mark, who started a mutual fund using his blog, Fund My Mutual Fund. Smith has so far gotten $3 million in pledges for the fund; he needs $7 million to break even. Hogan estimates that Trader Mark will need to charge 175 bps annually to cover fixed costs associated with running the fund.
