| The investment seeks total return with current income; high current income is a secondary consideration. The fund primarily invests corporate bonds rated BB or lower by S&P or similarly rated by another NRSRO or, if unrated, judged to be of comparable quality. Under normal circumstances, it invests at least 80% of net assets in fixed-income securities rated at the time of purchase BB or lower by S&P or similarly rated by another NRSRO or, if unrated, judged to be of comparable quality. The fund may also invest in U.S. and foreign government securities and corporate bonds of foreign issuers. |
