+413.92% in total, which works out to +21.84% a year over the 8 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.
2022 — its calendar-year return was -38.60% (net of fees, dividends reinvested). Its best year was 2023 (+65.78%).
-48.41%, from a peak on 2021-11-19 to a trough on 2022-10-14. From that trough it took 462 days (about 15.2 months) to climb back to the earlier peak.
Over the last 12 months it distributed 4.17% 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 PGKZX 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 -48.41% 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.
