Important Risk Information
Mutual Funds involve risk including the possible loss of principal. The use of leverage by the Fund or an Underlying Fund, such as borrowing money to purchase securities or the use of derivatives, will indirectly cause the Fund to incur additional expenses and magnify the Fund’s gains or losses. Derivative instruments involve risks different from, or possibly greater than, the risks associated with investing directly in securities and other traditional investments. There is a risk that issuers and counterparties will not make payments on securities and other investments held by the Fund, resulting in losses to the Fund. Past performance is no guarantee of future results. There is no assurance the Fund will meet their stated objectives.
Investments cannot be made in an index. Unmanaged index returns do not reflect any fees, expenses, or sales charges. Past performance is no guarantee of future results. There is no guarantee that any investment will achieve its objectives, generate positive returns, or avoid losses. The Adviser’s reliance on its strategy and judgments about the attractiveness, value and potential appreciation of particular securities and the tactical allocation among investments may prove to be incorrect and may not produce the desired results. No level of diversification can ensure profits or guarantee against loss.
Index Definitions
The Bloomberg US Aggregate Bond Index is made up of the Barclays US Government/Corporate Bond Index, Mortgage- Backed Securities Index, and Asset-Backed Securities Index, including securities that are of investment grade quality or better, have at least one year to maturity, and have an outstanding par value of at least $100 million. As it is not possible to invest in the index the data shown does not reflect or compare features of an actual investment, such as its objectives, costs and expenses, liquidity, safety, guarantees or insurance, fluctuation of principal or return, or tax features. Indexes do not include management fees.
The Tactical High Yield 200-DMA is defined by buying the Morningstar High Yield Category when it closes above its 200-day moving average the prior day. The strategy entirely switches to exposure of the Bloomberg US Treasury 3-5 Year Index when the Morningstar High Yield Category closes below its 200-day moving average. One cannot invest directly in an index or category and unmanaged index or category returns do not reflect any fees, expenses, or sales charges.
Definitions
Return is the percentage change in the value of an investment, and/or cash flows which the investor receives from that investment, such as interest payments, coupons, cash dividends, stock dividends or the payoff from a derivative or structured product, over a specified time period.
Yield is a return measure for an investment over a set period of time, expressed as a percentage, and includes price increases as well as any dividends paid, calculated as the net realized return divided by the principal amount (i.e. amount invested).
Maximum Drawdown (Max Drawdown) is the maximum observed loss from a peak to a trough of a portfolio, before a new peak is attained and can be used as an indicator of downside risk over a specified time period.
Standard Deviation (Std Dev) measures the dispersion of returns relative to its mean to determine the volatility of an investment and is calculated as the square root of the variance by determining the deviation of daily returns relative to the mean.
Sharpe Ratio compares the return of an investment with its risk by dividing its’ excess returns, which are returns that are above an industry benchmark or the risk-free rate of return, by a measure of its volatility to assess risk-adjusted performance.
