Investors should be aware that any guarantee associated with securities issued by the U.S. government, its agencies or instrumentalities relates to interest and principal, not to the market value of the security. The Fund's share price and income are not guaranteed. An investment in the fund is neither insured nor guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency. Although the Fund seeks to preserve the value of your investment at $1.00 per share, it is possible to lose money by investing in the Fund. This Fund is managed to maintain, and has maintained, its stable $1.00 per share price.
The yield quotation reflects more closely the current earnings of the Fund than the one-year total return quotation as shown. The Fund's yield may vary in response to changes in interest rates and other market factors.
Performance data quoted is historical. Past performance is not indicative of future results. Current performance may be higher or lower than the performance quoted. The investment return and principal value of an investment in the Fund will fluctuate so that shares, on any given day or when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. To obtain performance data current to the most recent quarter-end, go to quarter ending performance on our Website or call Lord Abbett at (888) 522-2388.
