The performance quoted represents past performance and does not guarantee future results. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance information shown. The investment return and principal value of an investment in the Portfolio will fluctuate, so that your shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. See above "Average Annual Total Returns %" for performance information current to the most recent month-end.
Returns for the other share classes will vary due to different charges and expenses. Performance assumes reinvestment of distributions and does not account for taxes.
Total investment return at net asset value has been calculated assuming a purchase at net asset value at the beginning of the period and a sale at net asset value at the end of the period; and assumes reinvestment of dividends, capital gain distributions and return of capital distributions/allocations, if any, in accordance with the provisions of the dividend reinvestment plan. Net asset value equals total Fund assets net of Fund expenses such as operating costs and management fees. Total investment return at net asset value is not annualized for periods less than one year.

As of April 30, 2025
| 3 Year | 5 Year | 10 Year | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Alpha Alpha: A measure of risk-adjusted performance; alpha reflects the difference between a portfolio's actual return and the return that could be expected give its risk as measured by beta. | -0.85 | -0.72 | -0.24 |
| Beta Beta: The sensitivity of a portfolio's returns to changes in the return of the market as measured by the index or benchmark that represents the market. A portfolio with a beta of 1.0 behaves exactly like the index. A beta less than 1.0 suggests lower risk than the index, while a beta greater than 1.0 indicates a risk level higher than the index. | 1.00 | 0.99 | 0.94 |
| Information Ratio Information Ratio: The ratio of portfolio returns in excess of a market index to the variability of those excess returns; in effect, information ratio describes the value added by active management in relation to the risk taken to achieve those returns. | -1.03 | -0.93 | -0.39 |
| R2 R2: The proportion of the variation in a portfolio's returns that can be explained by the variability of the returns of an index. High R-squared (close to 1.0) is usually consistent with broad diversification. | 0.99 | 0.99 | 0.98 |
| Sharpe Ratio Sharpe Ratio: A risk-adjusted measure calculated using standard deviation and excess return to determine reward per unit of risk. The higher the Sharpe ratio, the better the portfolio's historical risk-adjusted performance. | 0.08 | 0.36 | 0.34 |
| Standard Deviation Standard Deviation: A measure of the degree to which an individual probability value varies from the distribution mean. The higher the number, the greater the risk. | 8.00 | 7.41 | 7.17 |

Credit quality is based on third-party agency ratings , ranging from AAA (highest) to D (lowest). If ratings are available from each of S&P, Moody's and Fitch, the security is assigned the median rating. If ratings are available from only two of these agencies, the lower rating is assigned. If a rating is available from only one of these three agencies, then that rating is used. If none of S&P, Moody's and Fitch rate the security but it has a Morningstar DBRS rating, then the Morningstar DBRS rating is used (see https://dbrs.morningstar.com/about/disclaimer). Any security that is not rated by these four agencies is placed in the Not Rated (NR) category. Ratings do not apply to the Fund itself or to the Fund shares. Ratings may not accurately reflect risk and are subject to change.
