From Barron's 6-4-07:

"Although its recent returns haven't been as strong, the DWS Dreman High Return Equity Fund (ticker: KDHAX) has a good long-term record and an estimable lead manager in David N. Dreman, known for his value stock-picking. It also has a new manager on its team, Clifton Hoove.

The portfolio's 10-year annual return of 10.52% bests the Standard & Poor's 500 by 2.47 percentage points, placing it in the top 20% of its Morningstar peer group.

But for those investors looking for another way to get exposure to this fund family, there is Dreman-Claymore Dividend & Income (DCS), a closed-end that's very similar to its open-end cousin. As of late last week, the closed-end fund traded at an 11% discount to its net asset value. Translation: investors can buy these assets for less than 90 cents on the dollar."
