Diversification does not assure a profit or protect against a loss in a declining market.
Correlation is a measure of the interdependence of two random variables.
Mutual fund investing involves risk. Principal loss is possible. The Fund invests in foreign securities, which involves greater volatility; greater political, economic, currency risk; and differences in accounting methods. The Fund invests in smaller companies, which involves additional risks such as limited liquidity and greater volatility. Investments in debt securities decrease in value when interest rates rise and this risk is greater for longer-term debt securities. Certain hedging techniques and leverage employed in the management of the Fund may accelerate the velocity of possible losses. Short selling involves the risk of potentially unlimited increase in the market value of the security sold short, which could result in potentially unlimited loss for the Fund. Derivatives involve investment exposure that may exceed the original cost and a small investment in derivatives could have a large potential impact on the performance of the Fund. Options held in the Fund may be illiquid and the fund manager may have difficulty closing out a position. The Fund strategies and potential for high turnover could affect the amount, timing, and character of distributions. The Fund will bear its share of the fees and expenses of the underlying funds. Shareholders will pay higher expenses than would be the case if making direct investments in the underlying ETFs. Because the Fund invests in ETFs, it is subject to additional risks that do not apply to conventional mutual funds, including the risks that the market price of an ETF's shares may trade at a discount to its net asset value ("NAV"), an active secondary trading market may not develop or be maintained, or trading may be halted by the exchange in which they trade, which may impact a fund's ability to sell its shares. Alternative investments may not be suitable for all investors. Diversification does not assure a profit or protect against loss in a declining market.
