Re: Opinions about Janus
Open a brokerage account and transfer the Janus funds into the brokerage account. This will help you diversify the money with less headaches. If the account is at Janus, then you'll only be able to buy and sell Janus funds.
Janus typically does best in a bull market.
Schwab, Fidelity, E-trade, Ameritrade, etc. are all fine choices for somebody that is willing to do most of the legwork themselves. These firms should allow you to keep the Janus funds as well as diversify and buy different investments without opening an entirely new account.
Janus funds typically do best in bull markets. They have built their reputation on on being "growth stock" investors (although they've recently added some "value stock" and "bond" funds.)
You should diversify into some other asset classes, such as: small cap, mid cap, value, and perhaps bonds and/or cash.
