At January 31, 2015, the Fund had sufficient cash and/or securities to cover commitments under these contracts.

The Fund is subject to foreign exchange risk in the normal course of pursuing its investment objective. Because the Fund holds foreign currency denominated investments, the value of these investments and related receivables and payables may change due to future changes in foreign currency exchange rates. To hedge against this risk, the Fund enters into forward foreign currency exchange contracts.

At January 31, 2015, the aggregate fair value of open derivative instruments (not considered to be hedging instruments for accounting disclosure purposes) in an asset position and in a liability position and whose primary underlying risk exposure is foreign exchange risk was $570,014 and $327,122, respectively.

The cost and unrealized appreciation (depreciation) of investments of the Fund at January 31, 2015, as determined on a federal income tax basis, were as follows:

 

Aggregate cost

   $     1,665,085,409   
  

 

 

 

Gross unrealized appreciation

   $ 145,281,269   

Gross unrealized depreciation

     (62,884,513
  

 

 

 

Net unrealized appreciation

   $ 82,396,756   
  

 

 

 

Under generally accepted accounting principles for fair value measurements, a three-tier hierarchy to prioritize the assumptions, referred to as inputs, is used in valuation techniques to measure fair value. The three-tier hierarchy of inputs is summarized in the three broad levels listed below.

 

 

Level 1 — quoted prices in active markets for identical investments

 

 

Level 2 — other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar investments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.)

 

 

Level 3 — significant unobservable inputs (including a fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments)

In cases where the inputs used to measure fair value fall in different levels of the fair value hierarchy, the level disclosed is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.
