What are the best type of mutual funds to hold in a taxable investment account?

I have a balanced account that includes bonds and various classifications of Mutual Funds. What are the most tax efficient to be held in a taxable account?

Among stock funds, broad-market index funds and tax-managed funds are generally tax-efficient because they typically generate lower levels of capital gains, short- or long-term.

For bonds you want municipal bond funds, preferably in the state you live in.
