Who's The Bond Champ First Quarter 2016 ? Fuss, Gross, Hasenstab, Gundlach, Gaffney

FYI Granted their funds are classified in different categories, and three of the funds carry a load, here are the YTD results as of 4/1/16.

  • PIMIX beat them all for the trailing year. Probably it should go to Ivascyn. --- Begs the question why he wasn't included in the comparison...?
  • @Edmond: Dan Ivascyn is an excellent manager, and Pimco Income Fund is a great fund, I've owned it from time to time, but YTD PONAX was up 1.63% trailing all the other managers except Hasenstab.

  • Your initial post stated "YTD". That's what I used, for the PIMIX class.
    Is 3-months a reasonable metric for a fund manager?
  • @Edmond: For the last time ! YTD & First Quarter
