PIMCO Dynamic Income Fund Stock News

Risk is the probability of a negative event in the future. An abstract concept that is not measurable; otherwise it would not be risk. Ascertaining value is the first step in controlling risk, that is, in reducing the possibility of incurring losses that cannot be predicted in advance. My choice to invest in securities with positive NAV performance over time is a way to try to control risk.

PIMCO Muni CEF distribution coverage levels have sharply fallen to around 80%, correcting previously inflated figures likely due to calculation errors.
