Do you have the full name of this fund, who ran it, approximate date
of when it was active, or any other relevant information?

misspelled fund synbol......pegrx....european fund

Greetings!

According to Lisa at Payden & Rygel, that fund became the European
Aggresive Growth Fund, which then became the European Opportunity
Fund, although most tickers still list it as the European Aggressive
Growth Fund (PEGAX).  rico-ga was right!

MorningStar.com has an article from 6.16 of 2000 that lists it as a
poor performer and that it is going to be rehabbed...

Full Fund Name:

It appears to have ceased trading on 12/22 of 2000 at 6.94.

Still looking for why and what happened.

I suspect it was merged/absorbed into their "EuroOpportunity" Fund
(PEAGX), but suggest you contact their 800 number and ask...
