Minafi's Take

Fidelity is an industry leader in the investing space every since the 1960s when they were the first company to offer mutual funds to the public. Although their website lacks the cool polish of some of the newer players, their portfolio of low-cost mutual funds and ETFs is nearly unparalleled. Fidelity recently launched a number of mutual funds with zero expense ratio – an industry first and a major win for investors.

Minafi recommends Fidelity for long-term, low-fee retirement investing.
