Here's a statement of the obvious: The opinions expressed here are those of the participants, not those of the Mutual Fund Observer. We cannot vouch for the accuracy or appropriateness of any of it, though we do encourage civility and good humor.
I don't understand the column headings of this tabulation:
1. Amount, Change$, Change% what is "Change$" , why is that different than the amount of distribution?
2. Some of the Change% figures are quite bizarre e.g. Avenue Income Credit Strategy (ACP) = -88.6792% ? e.g. Western Asset Emerging Mkts Debt (ESD) = -79.5095% ? e.g. Western Asset Managed High Income (MHY) = -95.8841% ? Are these funds being liquidated, or what?
I believe the $ change and % of change is comparing the current distribution (for December) with the one immediately preceding it (November). As some distributions vary from month to month, this chart reflects that variance.
