The Fund invests primarily in a portfolio of securities and other investments of issuers across a broad range of countries and asset categories. These global assets fall under five general categories which are: Equity Securities, Fixed Income Securities (corporate bonds and notes of domestic and foreign issuers of any maturity and credit quality including below investment grade, commonly known as “junk bonds”), Real Estate Investment Trusts (both registered and privately offered), Commodity-related derivatives, and cash and cash equivalents such as money market funds.

50-90% of the Fund’s assets are invested in this portfolio, which involves setting up an asset mix within the five general categories for long-term appreciation. Periodic adjustments will be made based on market conditions.

10-40% of the Fund’s assets are invested in this portfolio, which involves frequent adjustments to respond to changes in market conditions. The asset mix in this portfolio also contains the global assets under the five general categories. Strategies employed in managing the Dynamic Assets Allocation include actively looking for short- and intermediate-term undervalued and overvalued assets; moving between asset classes to take advantage of market inefficiencies and sometime overreaction to market conditions; and rebalancing portfolio in order to bring the asset mix back to the Fund’s long-term target. These strategies are carried out based on the adviser’s judgment of relative fundamental values, the attractiveness of investment opportunities within each asset category, macroeconomic trends, and expected future returns of other investment opportunities.

portfolio diversification. This is a separate strategy where the Fund may use ETFs that track or do not track an index, and buying and writing derivatives contracts, such as options trading*, futures contracts, forward currency contracts and swap agreements (including, but not limited to, interest rate swaps, credit default swaps and total return swaps), both for hedging purposes and to seek investment returns consistent with the Fund’s investment objective.

*Because options may be riskier than other types of investments, the Fund’s use of options is limited to the aggregate premium, which is the total of paid and received premiums, to no more than 15% of its net assets (less the amount by which any such positions are in-the-money). Covered options writing (selling) is not subject to the 15% limitation.

The Principal Investment Selection Process

When selecting investments for the Fund, the adviser generally considers the following factors:

The information on which the fundamental analysis is based comes from sources such as regulatory filings, company annual reports, securities information databases, investment publications, general and business publications, brokerage firm research reports, and other media information sources. The adviser will sell an investment when the adviser believes that the security is no longer attractive based on its growth potential, price, or both. The adviser may also sell an investment if the adviser believes that another investment offers a better opportunity for the Fund to achieve its investment objective.

Temporary Defensive Strategy

Under adverse market conditions, the Fund may invest up to 100% of its assets in cash or cash equivalents. These investments include obligations issued or guaranteed by the U.S. Government, its agencies and/or instrumentalities (“U.S. Government Securities”); high quality money market instruments such as notes, certificates of deposit or banker’s acceptances; and money market funds. When the Fund invests in a money market fund, you will indirectly bear a portion of the fees charged by the other mutual fund, which could have an adverse effect on your investment. It is impossible to predict when or for how long the adviser may employ these strategies for the Fund. While engaged in a temporary defensive position, the Fund will not be invested according to its investment objective and therefore may not achieve its investment objective.
