The CBOE Volatility Index (VIX) is a real-time index that represents the market’s expectations for the relative strength of near-term price changes of the S&P 500® Index. Because it is derived from the prices of S&P 500® Index options with near-term expiration dates, it generates a 30-day forward projection of volatility. Volatility, or how fast prices change, is often seen as a way to gauge market sentiment, particularly the degree of fear among market participants.

There can be no guarantee that any strategy will be successful. Investing involves risk, including the potential loss of principal. The value of certain Funds will fluctuate due to changes in interest rates. There is risk that the issuer of a fixed income investment may fail to pay interest or even principal in a timely manner or at all. The value of other Funds will fluctuate due to business developments concerning a particular issuer, industry or country, as well as general market and economic conditions. Securities of foreign issuers may be negatively impacted by political events, economic conditions or inefficient, illiquid or unregulated markets in foreign countries, and they also may be subject to inadequate regulatory or accounting standards, which may increase investment risk. This description of risks is provided as a summary of the principal investment risks associated with the mutual funds. Refer to the Funds’ prospectus for more detailed risk information.
