Fund Holdings
The majority of the fund’s holdings are in U.S. corporate bonds, but it also maintains investments in foreign government and corporate bonds. As of the end of 2009, more than half of the fund’s bonds were rated BBB or lower. “We’re really looking across the fixed-income markets,” Stokes says. “At any given time, those sectors’ allocations can change.”
