Abstract
The focus of this study is to evaluate the performance of selected 48 open-ended equity mutual fonds in Thailand during the year 2003 through 2007. Four performance measures are used, the Treynor measure, the Sharpe measure, the Jensen measure, and Treynor-Mazuy measure. The empirical results reveal limited ability of mutual fand managers in both selecting undervalued stocks and forecasting the market correctly. Based on the market timing techniques of'Jreynor-Mazuy model, only ten mutual funds present significant positive coefficients of market timing ability. Consistent with the Jensen s model, only fourteen mutual fands show a significant positive coefficient of stock selectivity ability.
