HYPOTHETICAL PERFORMANCE
HISTORICAL MODEL PERFORMANCE DOES NOT GUARANTEE FUTURE RESULTS. THE RETURNS PRESENTED REPRESENT SIMULATED MODEL RETURNS WHICH ARE HYPOTHETICAL, MEANING THEY DO NOT REPRESENT ACTUAL TRADING, AND, THUS, MAY NOT REFLECT MATERIAL ECONOMIC AND MARKET FACTORS, SUCH AS LIQUIDITY CONSTRAINTS, THAT MAY HAVE HAD AN IMPACT ON ACTUAL DECISION MAKING. THE HYPOTHETICAL PERFORMANCE REFLECTS THE RETROACTIVE APPLICATION OF THE MODEL WITH THE FULL BENEFIT OF HINDSIGHT.
Actual performance may result in lower or higher returns than the hypothetical Model performance presented. If actual portfolios had been managed, there can be no guarantee such portfolios would have achieved results similar to those portrayed.
Model returns reflect a 0.50% annual trading expense on total portfolio value – which may be higher or lower than actual trading costs. Actual performance will vary from that of investing in the Model because it may not be fully invested at all times. Hypothetical model returns in certain years were significantly higher than the returns of the S&P 500 Index. It is important to note that models may underperform in certain years and may produce negative results. Investments in models should be made with an understanding of the risks involved with owning common stocks, such as an economic recession and the possible deterioration of either the financial condition of the issuers of the equity securities or the general condition of the stock market. An investment in a portfolio containing equity securities of foreign issuers is subject to additional risks, including currency fluctuations, political risks, withholding, the lack of adequate financial information, and exchange restrictions impacting foreign issuers. The value of the securities selected by the Model may be subject to steep declines or increased volatility or perception of the issuers.
INVESTMENT RISKS
Equity Risk. An investment in a Model containing common stocks is subject to certain risks, such as an economic recession and the possible deterioration of either the financial condition of the issuers of the equity securities or the general condition of the stock market. Sector Concentration Risk. A Model which is concentrated in an individual sector is subject to additional risks, including limited diversification. Foreign Securities Risk. An investment in securities of foreign issuers should be made with an understanding of the additional risks involved, such as currency fluctuations, political risk, withholding, the lack of adequate financial information, and exchange control restrictions impacting foreign issuers. Small-Cap and Mid-Cap Risk. An investment in a Model containing small-cap and mid-cap companies is subject to additional risks, as the share prices of small-cap companies and certain mid-cap companies are often more volatile than those of larger companies due to several factors, including limited trading volumes, products, financial resources, management inexperience and less publicly available information. Volatility Risk. The value of the securities held by the trust may be subject to steep declines or increased volatility due to changes in performance or perception of the issuers.
