A money market fund is a mutual fund that invests in high liquidity, short-term debt instruments. These funds aim to provide investors with a place to park money temporarily, returning a level of income without massive capital appreciation. They typically include cash, cash equivalents and high-credit rating debt securities like US Treasurys.
