Performance
PERFORMANCE %
Performance data quoted represents past performance and does not guarantee future results. The investment return and principal value of an investment will fluctuate so that an investor's shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance data quoted.
SI = Since Inception.
Fund Inception: 04/30/1998
Share Class Inception: 3/31/15.
Class R6-share performance prior to its inception date reflects Class Y-share performance (excluding sales charges) and operating expenses. SI performance is calculated from 4/30/98.
The Fund’s Class R6 shares have not been in operation for 10 years. Therefore, the Calendar Year Returns (R6 Shares) chart includes performance and operating expenses of another class. For more information, see the prospectus.
