U.S. Taxable Bond Funds Chug Along At Slower Pace

FYI: T he average U.S. taxable bond fund continues to boast a higher return than the S&P 500 in the past 15 years, though the general stock market has been catching up since it hit bottom after the 2007-08 financial crisis.

  • Thanks; amazing graph. I knew things had been bad for that index, but did not realize how much so, wow. Notable to me also is how far down FAGIX is; I used to happily own a lot of it, but traded out as I grew more conservative and approaching my 60s.
  • Howdy @davidmoran,
    You noted: "Notable to me also is how far down FAGIX is; I used to happily own a lot of it, but traded out as I grew more conservative and approaching my 60s."

    Question. What do you mean with, " how far down FAGIX is"?

    Thank you,
