What are the best mutual funds right now?

I am looking to invest about 200k into mutual funds. What are some very good utual funds right now maybe 2-3 years. Short term. Also is there any other way to nvest that is better than mutual funds? That are as secure and have returns of 25%+ a year?

1. I am not sure any mutual fund can yield 25% a year and safe at the same time. Some major energy funds did have a 25%+ per year during the last 2 years or so. Past performance cannot guarentee future price. If oil and energy continues at the existing rate, then you should invest in energy funds. Alternatively, gold and precious metals are in the same situation as oil and energy. Normally, the risk and the return are somewhat equal. If 25% is secure, we would have CPI growth of 25%, interest rate at 25%, inflation at 25%, and bond at 25%. When I say 25% I meant roughly 25%. You could try to speculate and make 25% a year, but it is also possible you lose 10-20%. The greater the reward, the greater the risk. (Sometime risk is greater) There is no free lunch. If something looks too good to be true, it probably is. Good luck investing!
