The Fund engages in hedging activities by investing in inverse ETFs. Inverse ETF's may employ leverage, which magnifies the changes in the underlying stock index upon which they are based. Any strategy that includes inverse securities could cause the Fund to suffer significant losses.
The Fund may purchase ETFs and Underlying Funds that invest in "alternative asset" or "specialty" market segments. The risks and volatility of these investments are linked to narrow segments of the economy such as commodities, foreign currencies, or real estate, and may include leverage, which magnifies the changes in the value of the ETF or Underlying Fund.
ETF's are subject to specific risks, depending on the nature of the underlying strategy of the fund. These risks could include liquidity risk, sector risk, as well as risks associated with fixed income securities, real estate investments, and commodities, to name a few.
The Fund may invest in small, less well-known companies, which may be subject to more erratic market movements than large-cap stocks; foreign securities, which are subject to currency fluctuations and political, economic and market uncertainty; These risks may result in greater share price volatility. In addition, the use of leverage in an investment portfolio can magnify any price movements, resulting in high volatility and potentially significant loss of principal.
An investor’s overall cost of investing in the Fund will be higher than the cost of investing directly in Underlying Fund shares and the investor will indirectly bear fees and expenses charged by the Underlying Funds in addition to the Fund’s direct fees and expenses.
The Fund may invest in derivatives (Option Contracts). Even a small investment in options may give rise to leverage risk, and can have a significant impact on the Fund's performance. Derivatives are subject to credit risk and liquidity risk.
