I have done this throughout the years -- for my own info as manager of the Boomer Fund -- by using those sources you mentioned, but I will take another look. (I used to sometimes copy Will Danoff's homework by looking at Contrafund's top ten holdings.)
I must sound like a woman obsessed. I have to find out what's inside those mutual funds in fees. The AUM is the easy part. But are the internal fees fair fees? I also wonder if incentives come in other forms, not exactly commissions.
Maybe I should take up crafts or day-drinkin' instead of delving into mutual fund costs............yeah, right, like that's gonna happen.

You should name a few of the funds.
