Pinnacle’s Intermediate Bond Portfolio seeks higher yields and total returns than are available with short-terms bonds. The Portfolio invests in investment grade corporate bonds in addition to a core holding of bonds issued by the U.S. Treasury or Federal Agencies.

The Intermediate Bond Portfolio is for the investor who is looking for greater taxable income from a bond portfolio without without taking the risk of low credit quality “junk bonds” or the price volatility risk of long-term bonds. The Portfolio has more price risk than a short-term bond portfolio but the fluctuation in the value of the Portfolio is expected to be lower than long-term bonds and stocks.
