Trading Thoughts - Combined Bond Performance

I recently posted a historical analysis of two quality bond funds, FGMNX and FNMIX, that have produced consistent returns over the past 18 years.  These two bond funds can serve multiple purposes in your portfolio from providing foreign exposure to helping your savings generate reasonable returns.  You can check out the posts in the following links:

Best Bond Fund in the World - FGMNX
Another Great Bond Fund - FNMIX

I was thinking that it may be interesting to study the combined performance of the two funds.  Most financial advisers suggest having some bond exposure in your investment portfolio.  Combining the returns of both FGMNX and FNMIX could provide excellent bond exposure to your portfolio while keeping risk to reasonable levels.  It would be a simple strategy to deposit equal amounts into each bond fund.  This could also provide consistent monthly dividends for those looking at fixed income investments.  I will post an analysis of the combined performance later this week.
