The percentage shown for each investment category in the Portfolio of Investments is based on net assets.

At June 30, 2017, the concentration of the Fund’s investments in the various states and territories, determined as a percentage of total investments, is as follows:

 

                        

New York

     11.7

California

     10.6

Others, representing less than 10% individually

     77.7

The Fund invests primarily in debt securities issued by municipalities. The ability of the issuers of the debt securities to meet their obligations may be affected by economic developments in a specific industry or municipality. In order to reduce the risk associated with such economic developments, at June 30, 2017, 35.4% of total investments are backed by bond insurance of various financial institutions and financial guaranty assurance agencies. The aggregate percentage insured by an individual financial institution or financial guaranty assurance agency ranged from 0.2% to 12.8% of total investments.

 

(1) Security represents the municipal bond held by a trust that issues residual interest bonds.

At June 30, 2017, the Fund had sufficient cash and/or securities to cover commitments under open derivative contracts.

The Fund is subject to interest rate risk in the normal course of pursuing its investment objective. Because the Fund holds fixed-rate bonds, the value of these bonds may decrease if interest rates rise. The Fund enters into U.S. Treasury futures contracts to hedge against changes in interest rates.

At June 30, 2017, the aggregate fair value of open derivative instruments (not considered to be hedging instruments for accounting disclosure purposes) in a liability position and whose primary underlying risk exposure is interest rate risk was $372,387.

The cost and unrealized appreciation (depreciation) of investments of the Fund at June 30, 2017, as determined on a federal income tax basis, were as follows:

 

Aggregate cost

   $     799,219,637  
  

 

 

 

Gross unrealized appreciation

   $ 118,275,507  

Gross unrealized depreciation

     (2,047,729
  

 

 

 

Net unrealized appreciation

   $ 116,227,778  
  

 

 

 

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.

At June 30, 2017, the hierarchy of inputs used in valuing the Fund’s investments and open derivative instruments, which are carried at value, were as follows:

 

Asset Description    Level 1      Level 2      Level 3      Total  

Tax-Exempt Investments

   $      $     1,516,537,415      $     —      $     1,516,537,415

Total

   $     (372,387    $      $      $ (372,387

The Fund held no investments or other financial instruments as of September 30, 2016 whose fair value was determined using Level 3 inputs. At June 30, 2017, there were no investments transferred between Level 1 and Level 2 during the fiscal year to date then ended.
