A. B. C. D. E.

Open-end investment companies continue to sell and repurchase shares after their initial public offerings. They sell shares at the net asset value with or without sales charges, and repurchase shares at the net asset value with or without redemption fees. The shares of closed end investment companies,however, are rarely sold or redeemed by the funds, but typically trade on a stock market. Over the long-run, the shares tend to trade at a 5 to 20% discount to their net asset value

(NAV). There is no such thing as a closed-end mutual fund. Only open-end investment companies are referred to as mutual funds.
