A good bond fund, like a high yield fund, has less credit risk and less interest rate risks -- and a good manager will add value,

In general, in any sort of tax-deferred account, you have a little more leeway to look at fund types that might be undesirable for your taxable account. If you're going to own a high-turnover, aggressive growth fund, for example, putting it in a tax-sheltered wrapper is a good idea. By the same token, a high-yield bond fund might be a good thing to put in a tax-deferred account.

We rate all Japanese funds as a nine or 10 out of 10 on the risk scale, but for those investors looking for a less volatile option than the Legg Mason fund, JP Morgan is our fund manager of choice.

You can only control for what you can control. And without a really good understanding of the risk a hedge fund is taking, you're in the dark. And don't forget that what you're really buying when you invest in a hedge fund is your claim on a manager's skill and insight. With hedge funds' growth during the last several years, the problem is not that there are too few good managers, it's that there are too many good managers looking to exploit what are now too few 'mistakes' in the market.

Like baseball managers, there's almost too much credit given to a fund manager when (a fund) does well, and too little when it does poorly. It's very healthy to look beyond a star manager.

So you put a little Jamaica in the fund, a little South Africa, a little Thailand. In a global crisis, all three will be a dog. But if you're a [hedge fund] manager, you don't care. You just want to offer as much diversification as possible, with as much yield as possible.

We're not recommending it because we expect volatility based on the price risks it takes, and we'd only recommend a fund with such a high expense ratio if it had a very long track record of success. The fund is not a 'sell,' however, since Franklin has a large staff of analysts and the manager does know the approach that Franklin uses.

[And in this new era of corporate accountability, operating executives have to understand exactly what their business risks are. Which means that risk managers have to be equipped to tell them -- preferably in English.] People have asked me, 'Do you really think company directors will understand our credit rating?' ... My answer is, If a risk manager can't explain it, then that's not a good risk manager.

These guys don't like to take credit risk. They are very conservative. They like to buy high FICO, no credit risk and try to minimize interest rate risk.

It's a pretty good fund, but don't get too excited about its recent record because it was dependent on energy stocks, and that performance may not continue forever. You don't necessarily need a utilities fund in your portfolio, but people buy them for yield and to add diversification if they already have growth funds.

[Global financial markets, not any government body, determine long-term interest rates through their bond trading each day. High demand for bonds pushes up their price and drives down their yield, yield being their effective interest rate after factoring in their purchase price. A combination of factors keep driving demand and pushing rates down, forces that have] much more to do with speculation, hedging and politics than . . . with actual investment merit, ... Once these forces reverse, expect bond prices to plunge and interest rates to soar.

For the moment, high-yield fundamentals in Asia are pretty solid. No meaningful signs of distress have yet appeared in the Asian corporate bond market, but the surge in high-yield bond issuance in recent years is a sign of a potential turnaround in the credit cycle over the medium term.
