Re: choosing an investment management firm

Hey there tanner-
I think you may still be a bit confused. Funds are purchased through the managers of the fund, not on a site like eTrade which gives you access to exchanges. Mutual funds aren't traded on a market like stocks are (unless they are ETF's - exchange traded funds). So if you wanted to buy a Vanguard index fund, you'd need to invest through Vanguard.

It's you who are confused. You can buy just about any mutual fund with an Etrade account.
