What is your view on Templeton Global Bond Fund? I bought it on July 19 and the price has dropped nearly 8%. I thought Bonds should not fluctuate so much. Do you think I should continue to hold?

Should I bother holding, considering the current market climate?

This fund distributes relatively high dividends(?).

However you loose at least 1.4 % per year management/administration fees.

Then the share price is going down, difficult to predict for the future.

There are ideas/discussions of a coming corporate bond crisis also ...

I would discourage from buying mutual funds/unit trusts b/o their much too high fees. Also bond investing currently (as opposed to the past) has lost it's shine.
