Hi Tom: Re Chart

Maybe you just need to put "Total Withdrawals" since 6/1/19--

I don't know if anyone was confused other than me.Actually seeing that you will eventually take out more than you started with will be pretty neat.

I have been researching closed end Global and International fixed income funds. Got a list from Barrons.

Three points I noticed so far:
1) They are all pretty much dollar denominated (can't use to play currency swings which was the main point for me)
2)They all pretty much (with rare exceptions) have fees in the 2+ % range which seems kind of high for a fixed income fund.
3) They all have an amazing amount of turnover! 200 to 600%

Take the road less traveled. It will make all the difference.
