FYI: Hard to find yields above 3 to 4 percent in opened-ended- mutual funds.

    "Investors hoping for 5% to 6% yields in income-generating equity and bond funds will likely have to lower expectations over the long term..."

    Maybe so. I've seen one or two of my own have their yield drop, but then come up again a bit--- a result of lower SHARE prices.

    MAINX is getting close to 5%, at 4.68%
    PREMX is at 5.77% right now.

    Others wanna chime-in?
