In Your Portfolio

Janus Henderson Investors

With its exposure to higher-yielding opportunities, the Fund may serve to complement and diversify a core fixed income allocation. It may be suitable for investors looking for a current monthly income stream.

When we add a security to the portfolio, the goal is to do one of two things: either dampen volatility or provide
us with the income that we want. Ideally, it will do both.”

– Seth Meyer, Portfolio Manager
