fund-indicators is a cross-platform Python application that allows users to easily find relationships between various attributes of mutual funds and previous performance. This project is based on research from [*Performance Indicators of Mutual Funds*](https://nextcloud.andrewkdinh.com/s/xNgGQ4nPNkSqJti).
