I agree with mutual funds, what role will these play in the coming years? Although with the passing of the automatic enrollment into retirement plans, many investors will be automatically put into mutual funds, keeping the industry strong I'm guessing. @ Blake – I really like SHARE S&P 500 INDX

Like you say, it's a really easy way to diversify and create a solid foundation for your portfolio. Have you added any yet? It makes you wonder what will become of mutual funds. Other than some really specific funds, it's almost a no-brainer to go with ETFs over typical funds any day, imho.
