Mutual funds invest in a diverse array of assets, including stocks, bonds, and other securities, by pooling the money of several participants. This diversity helps control market volatility by lessening the impact of any one investment’s poor performance.

Besides, certain types of mutual funds are designed to shield against inflation.
