Disclaimer:
Data, stats and returns are updated following the most recent calendar quarter end, i.e. March, June, Sept, December of the current year. There are risks involved with investing in ETFs and mutual funds, including possible loss of money. Shares are not actively managed and are subject to risks similar to those of stocks, including those regarding short selling and margin maintenance requirements. Ordinary brokerage commissions apply. The Fund’s return may not match the return of the Underlying Index. The Fund is subject to certain other risks. Please see each Fund’s prospectus for more information regarding the risk associated with an investment in the Fund. Investments focused in a particular industry and sector are subject to greater risk, and are more greatly impacted by market volatility, than more diversified investments. Funds may be non-diversified and may experience greater volatility than a more diversified investment. The performance of an investment concentrated in issuers of a certain region or country is expected to be closely tied to conditions within that region and to be more volatile than more geographically diversified investments. The risks of investing in securities of foreign issuers, including emerging market issuers, can include fluctuations in foreign currencies, political and economic instability, and foreign taxation issues. Stocks of small and mid-sized companies tend to be more vulnerable to adverse developments, may be more volatile, and may be illiquid or restricted as to resale. Stocks of micro-cap companies tend to involve substantially greater risks of loss and price fluctuations than more established companies.
