Past performance is no guarantee of future
results. The performance data quotes represents past
performance, and current returns may be lower or higher.
The investment return and net asset value will fluctuate so
that an investor's shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or
less than the original cost. To obtain performance
information current to the most recent month-end, please click

*The SEC 7-day average yield quotation more
closely reflects the current earnings of the Fund than the
total return quotation.
Investments in fixed income
securities are subject to interest rate risks. The
principal value of a bond falls when interest rates rise and
rise when interest rates fall. This effect is usually
more pronounced for longer-term securities. During
periods of rising interest rates, the value of a bond
investment is at greater risk than during periods of stable or
falling rates. Although the money market funds seek
to preserve the value of your investment at $1.00 per share,
it is possible to lose money by investing in the money market
funds. A portion of income from the Municipal Bond Fund may be
subject to some state and/or local taxes and for certain
investors, a portion may be subject to the federal alternative
minimum tax.
