Brokerage not preforming well
Hi 23F- I have a Roth IRA (image 1) that uses fidelity Go- and is currently under 25k so doesn’t get charged fees. I also have a regular brokerage account (image 2) that I have set auto payments for.
I have had my Roth IRA for a couple years and I opened my brokerage account this year. (~March)
I am finding that my Roth IRA is performing better than my brokerage account. My brokerage is YTD rate is 5.6% whereas my Roth’s YTD is up 8.26%.
I have two questions/ would like input on.
- One, is there something wrong with in my Brokerage account that is likely the cause for this 3% lag?
- Two, how bad is fidelity go truly in terms of fees? Will the fact it has performed a better make up for it?
As an aside my fidelity Go account buys and sells the tickers- where as I just buy more of the same and hope for the best- is this the reason for the lag? (I included and example of what I am referring to last image)
