The primary objective of the PIMCO Global StocksPLUS & Income Fund is to seek total return comprised of current income, current gains and long-term capital appreciation. The Fund will normally invest in S&P 500 Index and MSCI EAFE Index derivative instruments. Use of these instruments may involve certain costs and risks such as liquidity risk, interest rate risk, market risk, credit risk, management risk and the risk that a fund could not close out a position when it would be most advantageous to do so. Portfolios investing in derivatives could lose more than the principal amount invested in these instruments. In order to collateralize its equity index derivative instruments, substantially all of the Fund's assets will be invested in a fixed-income portfolio. The Fund normally will have exposure to investments that are tied economically to at least three countries other than the United States. Investing in non-U.S. securities may entail risk due to foreign economic and political developments; this risk may be enhanced when investing in emerging markets. The types of fixed-income securities in which the Fund may invest include mortgage-related and other types of asset-backed securities, government securities, convertible securities and commercial paper, inflation-indexed bonds. The guarantee on Treasuries, TIPS and Government Bonds is to the timely repayment of principal and interest. Shares of mutual funds that invest in them are not guaranteed. Mortgage-backed securities are subject to prepayment risk. With Corporate bonds there is no assurance that issuers will meet their obligations. This Fund is non-diversified, which means it may concentrate its assets in a smaller number of issuers than a diversified portfolio.
The credit quality of the securities in the portfolio are generally calculated by Moody's or S&P; if unrated, the investment manager may determine a comparable rating, which is included in the portfolio breakdown. The credit quality of the investment in the portfolio does not apply to the stability or safety of the fund. Duration is a measure of the fund's price sensitivity expressed in years.
