Relative Returns
We wanted to see how different mutual funds compared to the CNX MIDCAP index. We took the annual returns of a dozen funds and subtracted the annual returns of the CNX MIDCAP index. This gives us an idea of how well the fund was managed.
The above result is a bit surprising. Other than the ICICI Prudential Value Discovery Fund, no other fund consistently beat the CNX MIDCAP index. Of course, returns are only half the story, these numbers don’t tell us the risks that were taken to achieve them.
Besides, none of the top funds in a year hold that position over the next (see this.)
