CONSIDERING THE UNPREDICTABILITY OF THE MARKET, WE SUGGEST PUTTING YOUR MONEY
IN THE GROUND.
[To the right of the headline and running down the right side of the photo in

In today's unpredictable marketplace, the performance of REITs may
provide a strategic advantage. In fact, REITs can be a welcome addition to a
diversified portfolio.
CGM Realty Fund invests in REITs and, for the three-year period ended
6/30/98, outperformed the NAREIT Equity REIT Index by 29% to return more
than 88%*. CGM Realty Fund has declined during 1998. While no one can predict
future performance, maybe you should consider investing now.
Managed by Ken Heebner, CGM Realty Fund offers the potential for high
current income and long-term capital appreciation along with the long-term
advantages of real estate. Call now for more information and a prospectus.
