Performance Narrative [Text Block]

The following information provides some indication of the risks of investing in the Investment Income Builder Fund by showing how the Fund’s investment results vary from year to year. The bar chart shows how the annual total returns for Class A shares vary in each full year shown. The average annual total return figures compare Class A, Class C, Class I and Class R6 share performance to the MSCI World Net Total Return USD Index and the Bloomberg U.S. Aggregate Total Return Index Value USD, each a broad-based securities market index that represents the overall applicable market in which the Fund invests, and a Blended Benchmark, comprised of 25% Bloomberg U.S. Aggregate Total Return Index Value USD, and 75% MSCI World Net Total Return USD Index, an additional benchmark that represents the market sectors which Thornburg believes are more representative of the Fund’s investment universe. These indexes are not actively managed and are not available for direct investment. The bar charts and performance tables assume reinvestment of dividends and distributions. Past performance (before and after taxes) is not necessarily an indication of how the Fund will perform in the future. The performance information shown below is as of the calendar year ended December 31, 2025. Updated performance information may be obtained on the Thornburg website at Thornburg.com or by calling 1-800-847-0200.
