FUND SUMMARY 
The investment seeks a high level of current income. Capital growth is a secondary consideration. The fund primarily invests in a diversified portfolio of high-yield, high-risk, fixed-income securities of domestic and, to a lesser extent, foreign issuers. It invests primarily in lower quality bonds. The Fund may invest an unlimited amount of its total assets in junk bonds; however, the fund typically provides a cautious alternative within a more aggressive bond category. It may invest in fixed-income securities of any maturity and in companies of any size.
