Minimum
refers to the dollar amount (e.g., $3K means
$3,000) needed to open a new taxable account.
Loads
are
denoted with an “f” for front-end and “r” for back-end.
Holding periods are noted for loads imposed on sales of
shares held less than two months (<2 mo.) or one year (<1).
3-year
and
5-year returns
are compound, annualized
returns.
Average maturity
is in years for bond funds and
days for money market funds.
12-month yields
are based
on trailing 12-month dividend/income distributions.
SEC
yields
are reported 30-day yields.
Taxable equivalent
yields
are based on SEC yields. For state funds, taxable
equivalent yields incorporate state taxes.
Risk
is fund vola-
tility measured over the previous 24 months. Equity fund risk
is measured against the S&P 500 index. Bond fund risk is
measured against the Barclays Aggregate Bond index.
Annuity ratings
May differ from taxable funds since choices
in the annuity area are more limited.
* Tax equivalent yields incorporate the 3.8% health care sur-
tax into the 33%, 35% and 39.6% tax rates.
** Fund sold with a 0.75% front-end load
