About VGWLX
The fund invests 60% to 70% of its assets in dividend-paying and, to a lesser extent, non-dividend-paying equity securities of established large and mid-size U.S. and foreign companies. In choosing these companies, the advisor seeks those that appear to be undervalued but have prospects for improvement. These stocks are commonly referred to as value stocks. The remaining 30% to 40% of the fund's assets are invested mainly in U.S. and foreign fixed income securities that the advisor believes will generate a moderate level of current income.
Performance
VGWLX had a total return of 13.45% in the past year. Since the fund's inception, the average annual return has been 7.71%, including dividends.
