Junk-Bond Debacle Has Bond Fund Investors Feeling Like It’s 2008 Again
An interesting article that comments in some detail about Franklin Income which is Old_Skeet's largest holding, other than cash, as it accounts for about six percent of my overall portfolio and a fund I have owned since the 60's. Considering the dividends I have collected through the years it could go to zero in value and I would still have made money through collecting it's distributions. For me the best time to buy more of it is when it's valuation is towards it's fifty two week low. However, being that I own a slug of it now ... I'll continue to collect the disbursements that it makes and let my principal float as it's valuation changes.
