USBLX : Description

The fund was incepted in January 1989 and is managed by USAA Investment Management Company. The fund seeks a conservative balance for the investor between income, the majority of which is exempt from federal income tax, and the potential for long-term growth of capital to preserve purchasing power. The fund's assets are invested in investment-grade short-term taxable or tax-exempt debt instruments. The fund may invest up to 5% of its total assets in blue chip stocks of foreign issuers or in American Depositary Receipts (ADRs), Global Depositary Receipts (GDRs), or similar forms of ownership interest in securities of foreign issuers that are traded on U.S. securities exchanges or in U.S. over-the-counter markets. Dividends are distributed quarterly. Capital gains are distributed in December each year.
