Gundlach, manager of DoubleLine Total Return Bond Fund, saw his fund hit by a 1.22 billion net outflow in June, WSJ's Min Zeng reported. It is the first outflow since the fund's creation in 2010.

The DoubleLine[profile] fund posted a net inflow of 1.88 billion this year through the end of June. Gundlach is also beating the market index, which lost 2.33 percent in contrast to Doubleine's loss of 1,59 percent or Pimco's loss of 3.6 percent.
