| Investment Objective: |
The Portfolio is designed to purchase a broad and diverse group of readily marketable securities of large U.S. companies that the Advisor determines to be lower relative price stocks. An equity issuer is considered to have a low relative price (i.e., a value stock) primarily because it has a low price in relation to its book value. In assessing relative price, the Advisor may consider additional factors such as price to cash flow or price to earnings ratios. An equity issuer is considered to have high profitability because it has high earnings or profits from operations in relation to its book value or assets. The Portfolio will invest at least 80% of its net assets in securities of large cap U.S. companies. The Advisor may also increase or reduce the Portfolio's exposure to an eligible company, or exclude a company, based on shorter-term considerations, such as a company's price momentum and short-run reversals. The Portfolio is an actively managed exchange-traded fund and does not seek to replicate the performance of a specific index. |
