High yield munis?


Does anyone know of a credible site where I can look up historical average returns of high yield municipal bonds?

It's difficult to find precisely what you are seeking as definitions of what constitutes "high-yield" change over time.

However, a good proxy would be a high-yield tax-exempt mutual fund such as VWAHX, which goes back to 1978 (inception). You can find the information at this link:

T. Rowe Price has one also with a 10-yr history available:

By looking at a few of these funds, you should be able to get a sense of how they performed.

Only back about 10 years unfortunately.
