+170.30% in total, which works out to +10.46% a year over the 10 years to 2026-10-02. Both figures assume dividends were reinvested and the fund's own fees were already deducted, so they are what an investor would have kept — before tax.
2018 — its calendar-year return was -13.14% (net of fees, dividends reinvested). Its best year was 2025 (+34.02%).
-41.87%, from a peak on 2018-01-26 to a trough on 2020-03-23. From that trough it took 288 days (about 9.5 months) to climb back to the earlier peak.
Over the last 12 months it distributed 9.40% of its share price (as of 2026-10-02). That is a past distribution, not a promise of future income, and it is already counted in every return figure on this page.
It does not say BPGIX is a good or bad fund, and it is not a forecast. Returns above are history: they already include dividends and already exclude the fund's own fees. A drawdown of -41.87% means an investor who bought at the peak would have watched that much value disappear before it recovered — how long that takes is the part most tables leave out.
