Fund Description

The fund was incepted in March 1988 and is managed by Franklin Advisers. The objective of this fund is to maximize total return by emphasizing high current income and long-term capital appreciation, consistent with reasonable risk. The fund normally invests at least 80% of its net assets in equity securities and 65% of its assets in common stocks offering current dividend yields that are higher than the average yield of the stocks in the Standard and Poor's 500 Index (S&P 500). The fund attempts to buy such stocks when they are selling at attractive prices according to measurements such as relative dividend yield, book value, revenues and normalized earnings. The fund offers dividends monthly. Capital gains, if any, are distributed annually.
