Actual Return     19-Oct-09 12:06 pm    
I was curious if someone could explain to me in simple terms what "true" return on this fund is. Where I get confused is the YTD return is 18+% and the yield is about 4.5%. I've been in this fund for several years and took quite a beaten like many people did and am curious as to what I should be looking at to see where I'm really at or better going.

Any insight would be appreciated.

Thanks
