As of Oct 31, 2025, from the fund's yearly report. Original document →
Among the 76 funds we follow that invest in tax-free municipal bonds, 3 charge a lower management fee and 4 charge less in total, at their last yearly reports. Both numbers are measured against the fund's own money, not the money it borrows on top, so a fund that borrows more shows higher costs on both counts. - Payouts: last fiscal year (ended Oct 31, 2025) the fund paid $0.39 a share, all of it income. Most funds announce their monthly or quarterly payout on their own website, not in a filing with the regulator, so a cut or a raise there does not show up here until the next yearly report. A few funds do file a notice about a fixed payout; those appear under What happened, and when. As of Oct 31, 2025, from the fund's annual report. Original document →
- Value of holdings per share at the last fiscal year end (Oct 31, 2025): $9.20. The shares traded at $9.00, about 2.2% below that. As of Oct 31, 2025, from the fund's yearly report. Original document →
- How the holdings did: down 0.5% over the last three months we have (May-July 2026), before the share price is taken into account. As of July 31, 2026, from the fund's quarterly holdings report. Original document →

What these lines mean: a payout that is your own money back, what a fund costs, borrowing.
What a holder made
- The year ended Oct 31, 2025: the shares returned +5.6%, counting payouts; the holdings +3.2%. The holdings figure is what the fund's investments earned, before the share price is taken into account. As of Oct 31, 2025, from the fund's annual report. Original document →

- The holdings over the last twelve months we have, to July 31, 2026: +5.9%. The quarterly reports carry no share price, so this is the holdings alone. As of July 31, 2026, from the fund's quarterly holdings report. Original document →
- Of the 46 funds that invest in tax-free municipal bonds with a fiscal year ending within six months of this one, 24 reported a higher share return for that year and 21 a lower one. As of Oct 31, 2025, from the fund's annual report. Original document →
- A past year says nothing about the next one. All figures are the fund's own, from its reports to the regulator.
Why the shares and the holdings can differ: the gap between price and value. Why payouts count: a payout that is your own money back.
