(†) Fund securities and other investments are valued at market value based on market quotations obtained or determined by independent pricing services recommended by the adviser and approved by the Board of Trustees. Fund securities and other investments for which market quotations are not readily available are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by the adviser pursuant to procedures approved by the Board of Trustees, as described below. Market value is determined as follows:

Listed equity securities (including closed-end investment companies and exchange-traded funds) are valued at the last sale price quoted on the exchange where they are traded most extensively or, if there is no reported sale during the day, the closing bid quotation. Securities traded on the NASDAQ Global Select Market, NASDAQ Global Market and NASDAQ Capital Market are valued at the NASDAQ Official Closing Price (“NOCP”), or if lacking an NOCP, at the most recent bid quotations on the applicable NASDAQ Market. Unlisted equity securities (except unlisted preferred equity securities) are valued at the last sale price quoted in the market where they are traded most extensively or, if there is no reported sale during the day, the closing bid quotation. If there is no last sale price or closing bid quotation available, unlisted equity securities will be valued using evaluated bids furnished by an independent pricing service, if available.

Debt securities and unlisted preferred equity securities are valued based on evaluated bids furnished to the Fund by an independent pricing service or bid prices obtained from broker-dealers.

Broker-dealer bid prices may be used to value debt and unlisted equity securities where an independent pricing service is unable to price a security or where an independent pricing service does not provide a reliable price for the security. Exchange-traded index options are valued at the average of the closing bid and ask quotations as of the close of trading on the Chicago Board Options Exchange (“CBOE”).

Fund securities and other investments for which market quotations are not readily available are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by the adviser pursuant to procedures approved by the Board of Trustees. Option contracts for which the average of the closing bid and ask quotations are not considered to reflect option contract values as of the close of the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by the adviser pursuant to procedures approved by the Board of Trustees. On the last business day of the month, the Fund will fair value index options using the closing rotation values, published by the CBOE. The Fund may also value securities and other investments at fair value in other circumstances such as when extraordinary events occur after the close of a foreign market but prior to the close of the NYSE. This may include situations relating to a single issuer (such as a declaration of bankruptcy or a delisting of the issuer’s security from the primary market on which it has traded) as well as events affecting the securities markets in general (such as market disruptions or closings and significant fluctuations in U.S. and/or foreign markets). When fair valuing its securities or other investments, the Fund may, among other things, use modeling tools or other processes that may take into account factors such as securities or other market activity and/or significant events that occur after the close of the foreign market and before the time the Fund’s net asset value (“NAV”) is calculated. Fair value pricing may require subjective determinations about the value of a security, and fair values used to determine the Fund’s NAV may differ from quoted or published prices, or from prices that are used by others, for the same securities. In addition, the use of fair value pricing may not always result in adjustments to the prices of securities held by the Fund.

As of March 31, 2015, purchased options were fair valued at $34,408,865 and written options were fair valued at $(102,433,615) using the closing rotation values, published by the CBOE.

The books and records of the Fund are maintained in U.S. dollars. The values of securities, currencies and other assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than U.S. dollars are translated into U.S. dollars based upon foreign exchange rates prevailing at the end of the period.

 

(a) Federal Tax Information (Amounts exclude certain adjustments that will be made at the end of the Fund’s fiscal year for tax purposes. Such adjustments are primarily due to wash sales.):

At March 31, 2015, the net unrealized appreciation on investments based on a cost of $5,205,181,380 for federal income tax purposes was as follows:

 

Aggregate gross unrealized appreciation for all investments in which there is an excess of value over tax cost

$ 3,081,692,198   

Aggregate gross unrealized depreciation for all investments in which there is an excess of tax cost over value

  (105,372,298
  

 

 

 

Net unrealized appreciation

$ 2,976,319,900   
  

 

 

 

At December 31, 2014, the Fund had a short-term capital loss carryforward of $1,972,932,217 of which $1,005,056,628 expires on December 31, 2017, $393,591,402 expires on December 31, 2018 and $574,284,187 with no expiration date. These amounts may be available to offset future realized capital gains, if any, to the extent provided by regulations.

Capital losses may be utilized to offset future capital gains until expiration. The Regulated Investment Company Modernization Act of 2010 (the “Act”) allows capital loss carryforwards to be carried forward indefinitely. Rules in effect previously limited the carryforward period to eight years. Capital loss carryforwards generated in taxable years beginning after the effective date of the Act must be fully used before capital loss carryforwards generated in years prior to the effective date of the Act; therefore, under certain circumstances, capital loss carryforwards available as of the report date may expire unused.

 

(b) All of this security has been pledged as collateral for outstanding call options.
(c) A portion of this security has been pledged as collateral for outstanding call options.
(d) Non-income producing security.


(e) The Fund’s investment strategy makes use of exchange-traded options. Exchange-traded options are standardized contracts and are settled through a clearing house with fulfillment supported by the credit of the exchange. Therefore, counterparty credit risks to the Fund are reduced. The Fund writes (sells) index call options and purchases index put options. When the Fund writes an index call option, an amount equal to the net premium received (the premium less commission) is recorded as a liability and is subsequently adjusted to the current value until the option expires or the Fund enters into a closing purchase transaction. When an index call option expires or the Fund enters into a closing purchase transaction, the difference between the net premium received and any amount paid at expiration or on effecting a closing purchase transaction, including commission, is treated as a realized gain or, if the net premium received is less than the amount paid, as a realized loss. The Fund, as writer of an index call option, bears the risk of an unfavorable change in the market value of the index underlying the written option. When the Fund purchases an index put option, it pays a premium and the index put option is subsequently marked-to-market to reflect current value until the option expires or the Fund enters into a closing sale transaction. Premiums paid for purchasing index put options which expire are treated as realized losses. When the Fund enters into a closing sale transaction, the difference between the premium paid and the proceeds of the closing sale transaction is treated as a realized gain or loss. The risk associated with purchasing index put options is limited to the premium paid.
(f) The Fund may enter into repurchase agreements, under the terms of a Master Repurchase Agreement, under which the Fund acquires securities as collateral and agrees to resell the securities at an agreed upon time and at an agreed upon price. It is the Fund’s policy that the market value of the collateral for repurchase agreements be at least equal to 102% of the repurchase price, including interest. Certain repurchase agreements are tri-party arrangements whereby the collateral is held in a segregated account for the benefit of the Fund and on behalf of the counterparty. Repurchase agreements could involve certain risks in the event of default or insolvency of the counterparty, including possible delays or restrictions upon the Fund’s ability to dispose of the underlying securities. As of March 31, 2015, the Fund had an investment in a repurchase agreement for which the value of the related collateral exceeded the value of the repurchase agreement.

  Level 2 - prices determined using other significant inputs that are observable either directly, or indirectly through corroboration with observable market data (which could include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, interest rates, credit risk, etc.); and

 

  Level 3 - prices determined using significant unobservable inputs when quoted prices or observable inputs are unavailable such as when there is little or no market activity for an asset or liability (unobservable inputs reflect the Fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of assets or liabilities and would be based on the best information available).

The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.

The following is a summary of the inputs used to value the Fund’s investments as of March 31, 2015, at value:

Derivatives

Derivative instruments are defined as financial instruments whose value and performance are based on the value and performance of another security or financial instrument. Derivative instruments that the Fund used during the period include written index call options and purchased index put options.

The Fund seeks to capture the majority of the returns associated with equity market investments, while exposing investors to less risk than other equity investments. To meet this investment goal, the Fund invests in a broadly diversified portfolio of common stocks, while also writing index call options and purchasing index put options. Writing index call options can reduce the Fund’s volatility, provide a steady cash flow and be an important source of the Fund’s return, although it also may reduce the Fund’s ability to profit from increases in the value of its equity portfolio. The Fund also buys index put options, which can protect the Fund from a significant market decline that may occur over a short period of time. The value of an index put option generally increases as the prices of stocks constituting the index decrease and decreases as those stocks increase in price. The combination of the diversified stock portfolio, the steady cash flow from writing of index call options and the downside protection from purchased index put options is intended to provide the Fund with the majority of the returns associated with equity market investments while exposing investors to less risk than other equity investments. During the period ended March 31, 2015, written index call options and purchased index put options were used in accordance with this objective.

(†) Fund securities and other investments are valued at market value based on market quotations obtained or determined by independent pricing services recommended by the adviser and approved by the Board of Trustees. Fund securities and other investments for which market quotations are not readily available are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by the adviser pursuant to procedures approved by the Board of Trustees, as described below. Market value is determined as follows:

Listed equity securities (including closed-end investment companies and exchange-traded funds) are valued at the last sale price quoted on the exchange where they are traded most extensively or, if there is no reported sale during the day, the closing bid quotation. Securities traded on the NASDAQ Global Select Market, NASDAQ Global Market and NASDAQ Capital Market are valued at the NASDAQ Official Closing Price (“NOCP”), or if lacking an NOCP, at the most recent bid quotations on the applicable NASDAQ Market. Unlisted equity securities (except unlisted preferred equity securities) are valued at the last sale price quoted in the market where they are traded most extensively or, if there is no reported sale during the day, the closing bid quotation. If there is no last sale price or closing bid quotation available, unlisted equity securities will be valued using evaluated bids furnished by an independent pricing service, if available.

Debt securities and unlisted preferred equity securities are valued based on evaluated bids furnished to the Fund by an independent pricing service or bid prices obtained from broker-dealers.

Broker-dealer bid prices may be used to value debt and unlisted equity securities where an independent pricing service is unable to price a security or where an independent pricing service does not provide a reliable price for the security. Exchange-traded index options are valued at the average of the closing bid and ask quotations as of the close of trading on the Chicago Board Options Exchange (“CBOE”).

Fund securities and other investments for which market quotations are not readily available are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by the adviser pursuant to procedures approved by the Board of Trustees. Option contracts for which the average of the closing bid and ask quotations are not considered to reflect option contract values as of the close of the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by the adviser pursuant to procedures approved by the Board of Trustees. On the last business day of the month, the Fund will fair value index options using the closing rotation values, published by the CBOE. The Fund may also value securities and other investments at fair value in other circumstances such as when extraordinary events occur after the close of a foreign market but prior to the close of the NYSE. This may include situations relating to a single issuer (such as a declaration of bankruptcy or a delisting of the issuer’s security from the primary market on which it has traded) as well as events affecting the securities markets in general (such as market disruptions or closings and significant fluctuations in U.S. and/or foreign markets). When fair valuing its securities or other investments, the Fund may, among other things, use modeling tools or other processes that may take into account factors such as securities or other market activity and/or significant events that occur after the close of the foreign market and before the time the Fund’s net asset value (“NAV”) is calculated. Fair value pricing may require subjective determinations about the value of a security, and fair values used to determine the Fund’s NAV may differ from quoted or published prices, or from prices that are used by others, for the same securities. In addition, the use of fair value pricing may not always result in adjustments to the prices of securities held by the Fund.

As of March 31, 2015, written options were fair valued at $(339,455) using the closing rotation values published by the CBOE.

The books and records of the Fund are maintained in U.S. dollars. The values of securities, currencies and other assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than U.S. dollars are translated into U.S. dollars based upon foreign exchange rates prevailing at the end of the period.

 

(a) Federal Tax Information (Amounts exclude certain adjustments that will be made at the end of the Fund’s fiscal year for tax purposes. Such adjustments are primarily due to wash sales.):

At March 31, 2015, the net unrealized appreciation on investments based on a cost of $27,590,320 for federal income tax purposes was as follows:

 

Aggregate gross unrealized appreciation for all investments in which there is an excess of value over tax cost

$ 1,307,427   

Aggregate gross unrealized depreciation for all investments in which there is an excess of tax cost over value

  (790,025
  

 

 

 

Net unrealized appreciation

$ 517,402   
  

 

 

 

At December 31, 2014, the Fund had a short-term capital loss carryforward of $243,981 with no expiration date and a long-term capital loss carryforward of $196,847 with no expiration date. These amounts may be available to offset future realized capital gains, if any, to the extent provided by regulations.

 

(b) A portion of this security has been pledged as collateral for outstanding options.
(c) All of this security has been pledged as collateral for outstanding options.
(d) Non-income producing security.
(e) The Fund may enter into repurchase agreements, under the terms of a Master Repurchase Agreement, under which the Fund acquires securities as collateral and agrees to resell the securities at an agreed upon time and at an agreed upon price. It is the Fund’s policy that the market value of the collateral for repurchase agreements be at least equal to 102% of the repurchase price, including interest. Certain repurchase agreements are tri-party arrangements whereby the collateral is held in a segregated account for the benefit of the Fund and on behalf of the counterparty. Repurchase agreements could involve certain risks in the event of default or insolvency of the counterparty, including possible delays or restrictions upon the Fund’s ability to dispose of the underlying securities. As of March 31, 2015, the Fund had an investment in a repurchase agreement for which the value of the related collateral exceeded the value of the repurchase agreement.


(f) The Fund’s investment strategy makes use of exchange-traded options. Exchange-traded options are standardized contracts and are settled through a clearing house with fulfillment supported by the credit of the exchange. Therefore, counterparty credit risks to the Fund are reduced. The Fund writes (sells) index call options. When the Fund writes an index call option, an amount equal to the net premium received (the premium less commission) is recorded as a liability and is subsequently adjusted to the current value until the option expires or the Fund enters into a closing purchase transaction. When an index call option expires or the Fund enters into a closing purchase transaction, the difference between the net premium received and any amount paid at expiration or on effecting a closing purchase transaction, including commission, is treated as a realized gain or, if the net premium received is less than the amount paid, as a realized loss. The Fund, as writer of an index call option, bears the risk of an unfavorable change in the market value of the index underlying the written option.

Fair Value Measurements

In accordance with accounting standards related to fair value measurements and disclosures, the Fund has categorized the inputs utilized in determining the value of the Fund’s assets or liabilities. These inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below:

 

  Level 1 - quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

 

  Level 2 - prices determined using other significant inputs that are observable either directly, or indirectly through corroboration with observable market data (which could include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, interest rates, credit risk, etc.); and

 

  Level 3 - prices determined using significant unobservable inputs when quoted prices or observable inputs are unavailable such as when there is little or no market activity for an asset or liability (unobservable inputs reflect the Fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of assets or liabilities and would be based on the best information available).

The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.

The following is a summary of the inputs used to value the Fund’s investments as of March 31, 2015, at value:

For the period ended March 31, 2015, there were no transfers among Levels 1, 2 and 3.

Derivatives

Derivative instruments are defined as financial instruments whose value and performance are based on the value and performance of another security or financial instrument. Derivative instruments that the Fund used during the period include written index call options.

The Fund seeks to capture the majority of the returns associated with equity market investments, while exposing investors to less risk than other equity investments. To meet this investment goal, the Fund invests in a broadly diversified portfolio of common stocks, while also writing index call options. Writing index call options can reduce the Fund’s volatility, provide a steady cash flow and be an important source of the Fund’s return, although it also may reduce the Fund’s ability to profit from increases in the value of its equity portfolio. The combination of the diversified stock portfolio and the steady cash flow from writing of index call options is intended to moderate the volatility of returns relative to an all-equity portfolio. During the period ended March 31, 2015, written index call options were used in accordance with this objective.

The following is a summary of derivative instruments for the Fund as of March 31, 2015:

The Fund’s derivatives do not qualify for hedge accounting under authoritative guidance for derivative instruments. The Fund’s investments in derivatives may represent an economic hedge; however, they are considered to be non-hedge transactions for the purpose of this disclosure.
