This is elementry question and maybe it it explained somewhere in these
files. If so, please direct me to them.
My question is:
How do you interrupt the Mutual Fund standings that appear
in the newspapers?
Pretty simple stuff, but what does all those letters mean?

There should be a "key" in the newspaper which describes the basics.
But, for example (with made-up numbers)
Fidelity Investments
AMgr 10.54 NL +.10
Mgln 36.23 37.34 +.45
"AMgr" is the abbreviation for the fund name (Asset Manager)
The two columns list the buy/sell price of one share of the fund.
"NL" means the fund has no sales load, so the buy and sell prices
are the same. The "+.10" is the change in NAV for the day.
