Suitability
The Fund is suitable for investors seeking a moderate rate of income with less share-price volatility than longer-term bond funds. The Fund seeks to enhance total return by achieving capital gains by capitalizing on movements in nominal interest rates.
Investment Risks
This Fund carries lower reward potential and, correspondingly, has lower risk tied to it than more aggressive investments.
Bond Funds will tend to experience smaller fluctuations in value than stock funds. However, investors in any bond fund should anticipate fluctuations in price, especially for longer-term issues and in environments of rising interest rates.
