MGF revises investment objective
MFS Government Markets Income Trust revised its investment objective on December 21, 2007, shifting from pure high current income to also consider capital appreciation. The Board eliminated limits on certain investments and derivatives for manager flexibility, while maintaining 80% in government securities and up to 33 1/3% leverage. Monthly distributions continue at a fixed rate of up to 7.25% per year. Shares trade at a discount to NAV.

Approves 7.25% level distributions
MFS Government Markets Income Trust's Board approved a level-distribution plan on July 27, 2007, starting October 2007, paying shareholders a fixed 7.25% annual minimum rate based on average monthly NAV. This aims to deliver predictable payouts and narrow the share price discount to NAV, though distributions exceed current net investment income and may return capital. Risks loom if earnings fall short. Board to review periodically.
