Risk Factors

The Fund invests in options that derive their performance from the performance of the S&P 500 Index. Selling (writing) and buying options are speculative activities and entail greater than ordinary investment risks. The Fund’s use of put options can lead to losses because of adverse movements in the price or value of the underlying asset, which may be magnified by certain features of the options. When selling a put option, the Fund will receive a premium; however, this premium may not be enough to offset a loss incurred by the Fund if the price of the underlying asset is below the strike price by an amount equal to or greater than the premium. Purchased put options may expire worthless and the Fund would lose the premium it paid for the option. The Fund may lose significantly more than the premiums it receives in highly volatile market conditions.

The Fund will invest in short term put options which are financial derivatives that give buyers the right, but not the obligation, to sell (put) an underlying asset at an agreed-upon price and date. The Fund’s use of options may reduce the Fund’s ability to profit from increases in the value of the underlying asset. The Fund could experience a loss or increased volatility if its derivatives do not perform as anticipated or are not correlated with the performance of their underlying asset or if the Fund is unable to purchase or liquidate a position.

Equity Market Risk. The trading prices of equity securities and other instruments fluctuate in response to a variety of factors.

Fund Premium/Discount

For additional resources, please see  Fund Prospectus.

Shares of the Fund trade based on market prices rather than the Fund's net asset value per share ("NAV"). Consequently, shares of the Fund may trade at a price greater than (premium) or less than (discount) the Fund's NAV. The above chart presents information for the period indicated about how often the most recent market closing price for shares of the Fund reflected a premium or discount to the Fund's NAV for each trading day and the amount of each such premium or discount, expressed as a percentage of that day's NAV.

Shareholders may pay more than NAV when they buy Fund shares and receive less than NAV when they sell those shares, because shares are bought and sold at current market prices. The data presented represents past performance and cannot be used to predict future results.

How to Invest

Overlay Shares are traded on major stock exchanges, much like shares of common stock.

ETFs can be bought and sold throughout the trading day offering liquidity and ongoing valuations of the fund's holdings for investors. ETFs are typically tax-efficient and generally have lower cost than other investment alternatives, making them a great investment tool for investors. Trading can be executed through your financial advisor or an account with most brokerage firms. Commissions and transaction costs may vary so be sure to check on these costs.

The Morningstar RatingTM is a quantitative assessment of a fund’s past performance—both return and risk—as measured from one to five stars. It uses focused comparison groups to better measure fund manager skill. As always, the Morningstar RatingTM is intended for use as the first step in the fund evaluation process. A high rating alone is not a sufficient basis for investment decisions. The Morningstar RatingTM is based on a fund’s Morningstar Risk-Adjusted Return (‘MRAR’) measure. MRAR is motivated by ‘expected utility’ theory, whereby an investor ranks alternative portfolios using the mathematical expectation of a function (called the ‘utility’ function) of the end value of each portfolio. With this basis in expected utility theory, investors are firstly, more concerned about a possible poor outcome than an unexpectedly good outcome; and secondly, willing to give up some portion of their expected return in exchange for greater certainty of return. The rating accounts for all variations in a fund’s monthly performance, with more emphasis on downward variations. It rewards consistent performance and reduces the possibility of strong short-term performance masking the inherent risk of a fund. The MorningstarTM Ratings for Funds
