Spectrum Income Fund Distributions?

Is there a place on Price's website that would show me the last several months distributions for this fund?  I could find info like that in 2 seconds on Vanguard's website, but i still have trouble finding some info on Price's website.

If it's there on the TRP website, they've got it hidden pretty well.  I've given up on relying on the TRP website for dividend info, and use Yahoo Finance instead.

Here's a link:

I was sure that this info was on their site, but that i just couldn't find it.  So i contacted them by email.  Their response - the monthly distribution for funds that pay monthly is "not available" on their site. 

Good grief - hundreds of thousands (maybe millions?) of investors & they don't make this info readily available?  I just started with Price last year to invest my soc sec $ until i really need it.  Might just go back to Vanguard - lower expense ratios and a much friendlier website.  But i really like some of Price's funds, darn it.   Bullwinkle

Bullwinkle, their response was wrong.  I have Spectrum Income and am able to get the monthly distribution information when I logon to their site.  But for the life of me I cannot tell you how to do it, unless I am actually on their site...which I am not now.  Last yr or so, they changed their website, and it is really hard to figure out where to go to get info.  I think that after you logon there is a spot on the lower left hand area that says "recent transactions"....or something like that.

I also know that some of transactions I make often doesn't get completely updated until about the following midmorning.  Its often distributions that show up last.  Purchases, exchanges show up by about 9 am, but other things often later.  I also see that the total shares in a fund often doesn't include latest transactions (especially  the distributions/dividends in the Spectrum Income Fund).  It is indeed a strange site to get info....not investor friendly.

Joel - i can see my total dollar distribution and how many shares i received.  I was looking for the per share distribution for the month - like .0437 cents per share.  Are you able to find that info?        Thanks        Bullwinkle

No, the only info I saw for Spectrum Income was columns for Dollar Amt, Share Amt, and Price.

However, when I looked at "transaction history" for longer period, e.g. 180 days, I happened to notice that for my Real Estate Fund (TRREX), in the "transaction type" column where it said "Dividend Reinv" (like how it shows for RPSIX), for TRREX on 6/26, there was also listed a figure of 0.1800 after the words "Dividend Reinv". (similar figures appeared for TRREX when there was a div reinvestment in March). I'm not versed in this stuff but the 0.1800 might be the per share distribution you mentioned. 

If that's what that number indicates...then why is that not also listed for Spectrum Income?  That's something I don't know
