Investment Objective: The Fund will seek investment results that correspond generally to the price and yield (before the Fund s fees and expenses) of an equity index called the NASDAQ AlphaDEX Small Cap Core Index. The Index is an enhanced index created and administered by Nasdaq, Inc. which employs the AlphaDEX stock selection methodology to select stocks from the NASDAQ US 700 Small Cap Index that meet certain criteria. Nasdaq constructs the NASDAQ AlphaDEX Small Cap Core Index by ranking the eligible stocks from the NASDAQ US 700 Small Cap Index on growth factors including 3-, 6- and 12- month price appreciation, sales to price and one year sales growth, and separately on value factors including book value to price, cash flow to price and return on assets. A stock must have data for all growth and/or value factors to receive a rank for that style. Each stock receives either its growth or value score as it s selection score based on it s style designation as determined by Nasdaq. The top 525 stocks based on the selection score determined in the previous step comprise the selected stocks . The selected stocks are divided into quintiles based on their rankings and the top ranked quintiles receive a higher weight within the index.
