Larger stocks refer to the common stock of companies whose total market capitalization is generally greater than $2 billion. Current income is not a significant investment consideration and any such income realized will be considered incidental to the Fund&amp;#8217;s investment objective. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt; &lt;ul type="square"&gt;&lt;li style="margin-left:-20px"&gt;&lt;p style="PADDING-LEFT: 25px"&gt;This Fund invests using a growth investing style. Growth funds generally focus on stocks of companies believed to have above-average potential for growth in revenue, earnings, cash flow, or other similar criteria. These stocks typically have low dividend yields and above-average prices in relation to such measures as earnings and book value. Growth and value stocks have historically produced similar long-term returns, though each category has periods when it outperforms the other.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt; &lt;ul type="square"&gt;&lt;li style="margin-left:-20px"&gt;&lt;p style="PADDING-LEFT: 25px"&gt;The Fund normally invests in a portfolio of securities which includes a broadly diversified number of common stocks that the Fund&amp;#8217;s Investment Manager believes show a high probability of superior prospects for above average growth. The Fund&amp;#8217;s Investment Manager chooses these securities using a &amp;#8220;bottom up&amp;#8221; approach of extensively analyzing the financial, management and overall economic conditions of each potential investment. Companies that meet or exceed specific criteria established by the Manager in the selection process are purchased. Securities are sold when they reach internally determined pricing targets or no longer qualify under the Manager&amp;#8217;s investment criteria. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt; &lt;ul type="square"&gt;&lt;li style="margin-left:-20px"&gt;&lt;p style="PADDING-LEFT: 25px"&gt;The Fund may, from time to time, take temporary defensive positions that are inconsistent with the Fund&amp;#8217;s principal investment strategies in attempting to respond to adverse market, economic, political, or other conditions.

The stock market is cyclical, with prices generally rising and falling over periods of time.

Securities of growth companies may be more volatile than other stocks. If the portfolio manager&amp;#8217;s perception of a company&amp;#8217;s growth potential is not realized, the securities purchased may not perform as expected, reducing the Fund&amp;#8217;s return. In addition, because different types of stocks tend to shift in and out of favor depending on market and economic conditions, &amp;#8220;growth&amp;#8221; stocks may perform differently from the market as a whole and other types of securities. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li style="margin-left:-20px"&gt;&lt;p style="PADDING-LEFT: 40px"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Larger Company Investing Risk |&lt;/b&gt; Larger, more established companies may be unable to respond quickly to new competitive challenges like changes in consumer tastes or innovative smaller competitors. Also, larger companies are sometimes unable to attain the high growth rates of successful, smaller companies, especially during extended periods of economic expansion. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li style="margin-left:-20px"&gt;&lt;p style="PADDING-LEFT: 40px"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Mid-Sized Company Investing Risk&lt;/b&gt; | Investing in mid-sized companies often involves greater risk than investing in larger companies. Mid-sized companies may not have the management experience, financial resources, product diversification and competitive strengths of larger companies. The securities of mid-sized companies, therefore, tend to be more volatile than the securities of larger, more established companies. Mid-sized company stocks tend to be bought and sold less often and in smaller amounts than larger company stocks. Because of this, if a fund wants to sell a large quantity of a mid-sized company&amp;#8217;s stock, it may have to sell at a lower price than would otherwise be indicated, or it may have to sell in smaller than desired quantities over an increased time period. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;/li&gt;&lt;li style="margin-left:-20px"&gt;&lt;p style="PADDING-LEFT: 40px"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Who Should Buy This Fund&lt;/b&gt; | The Fund is most appropriate for investors who understand the risks of investing in the domestic stock markets and who are willing to accept moderate amounts of volatility and risk. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ol&gt;</rr:RiskNarrativeTextBlock>

Growth funds generally focus on stocks of companies believed to have above-average potential for growth in revenue, earnings, cash flow, or other similar criteria. These stocks typically have low dividend yields and above-average prices in relation to such measures as earnings and book value. Growth and value stocks have historically produced similar long-term returns, though each category has periods when it outperforms the other. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li style="margin-left:-20px"&gt;&lt;p style="PADDING-LEFT: 25px"&gt;The Fund invests its assets in the securities of a limited number of companies, which the Fund&amp;#8217;s Investment Manager believes show a high probability for superior growth. Companies that meet or exceed specific criteria established by the Manager in the selection process are purchased. Securities are sold when they reach internally determined pricing targets or no longer qualify under the Manager&amp;#8217;s investment criteria. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li style="margin-left:-20px"&gt;&lt;p style="PADDING-LEFT: 25px"&gt;The Fund may, from time to time, take temporary defensive positions that are inconsistent with the Fund&amp;#8217;s principal investment strategies in attempting to respond to adverse market, economic, political, or other conditions.

Some of these price cycles can be pronounced and last for a long time. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li style="margin-left:-20px"&gt;&lt;p style="PADDING-LEFT: 40px"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Larger Company Investing Risk&lt;/b&gt; | Larger, more established companies may be unable to respond quickly to new competitive challenges like changes in consumer tastes or innovative smaller competitors. Also, larger companies are sometimes unable to attain the high growth rates of successful, smaller companies, especially during extended periods of economic expansion. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li style="margin-left:-20px"&gt;&lt;p style="PADDING-LEFT: 40px"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Smaller Company Investing Risk&lt;/b&gt; | Investing in smaller companies often involves greater risk than investing in larger companies. Smaller companies may not have the management experience, financial resources, product diversification and competitive strengths of larger companies. The securities of smaller companies, therefore, tend to be more volatile than the securities of larger, more established companies. Smaller company stocks tend to be bought and sold less often and in smaller amounts than larger company stocks. Because of this, if a fund wants to sell a large quantity of a small-sized company&amp;#8217;s stock, it may have to sell at a lower price than would otherwise be indicated, or it may have to sell in smaller than desired quantities over an increased time period. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li style="margin-left:-20px"&gt;&lt;p style="PADDING-LEFT: 40px"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Excluded Security Risk |&lt;/b&gt; Because the Fund does not invest in Excluded Securities, and will divest itself of securities that are subsequently discovered to be ineligible, the Fund may be riskier than other funds that invest in a broader array of securities. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li style="margin-left:-20px"&gt;&lt;p style="PADDING-LEFT: 40px"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Growth Risk&lt;/b&gt; | The Fund often invests in companies after assessing their growth potential. Securities of growth companies may be more volatile than other stocks. If the portfolio manager&amp;#8217;s perception of a company&amp;#8217;s growth potential is not realized, the securities purchased may not perform as expected, reducing the Fund&amp;#8217;s return. In addition, because different types of stocks tend to shift in and out of favor depending on market and economic conditions, &amp;#8220;growth&amp;#8221; stocks may perform differently from the market as a whole and other types of securities. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li style="margin-left:-20px"&gt;&lt;p style="PADDING-LEFT: 40px"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Who Should Buy This Fund&lt;/b&gt; | The Fund is most appropriate for investors who understand the risks of investing in the stock market and who are willing to accept significant amounts of volatility and risk. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ol&gt;</rr:RiskNarrativeTextBlock>

Small Cap stocks refer to the common stock of smaller companies &amp;#8212; companies whose total market capitalization is less than $2 billion. This Fund invests using a value investing style. Value funds typically emphasize stocks whose prices are below average in relation to such measures as earnings and book value; these stocks often have above-average dividend yields. Growth and value stocks have historically produced similar long-term returns, though each category has periods when it outperforms the other. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;ul type="square"&gt;&lt;li style="margin-left:-20px"&gt;&lt;p style="PADDING-LEFT: 25px"&gt;In determining whether to invest in a particular company, the Fund&amp;#8217;s Investment Manager focuses on a number of different attributes of the company, including the company&amp;#8217;s market expertise, balance sheet, improving return on equity, price to earnings ratios, industry position and strength, management and a number of other factors. Analyzing companies in this manner is known as a &amp;#8220;bottom up&amp;#8221; approach to investing. Companies that meet or exceed specific criteria established by the Manager in the selection process are purchased. Securities are sold when they reach internally determined pricing targets or no longer qualify under the Manager&amp;#8217;s investment criteria. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;ul type="square"&gt;&lt;li style="margin-left:-20px"&gt;&lt;p style="PADDING-LEFT: 25px"&gt;The Fund may invest in equity securities of foreign issuers in the form of American Depositary Receipts (ADRs). ADRs are certificates held in trust by a U.S. bank or trust company evidencing ownership of shares of foreign-based issuers, and are an alternative to purchasing foreign securities in their national market and currency. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;ul type="square"&gt;&lt;li style="margin-left:-20px"&gt;&lt;p style="PADDING-LEFT: 25px"&gt;The Fund may, from time to time, take temporary defensive positions that are inconsistent with the Fund&amp;#8217;s principal investment strategies in attempting to respond to adverse market, economic, political, or other conditions.

Foreign issuers are not subject to the same degree of regulation as U.S. issuers. Also, nationalization, expropriation or confiscatory taxation or political changes could adversely affect the Fund&amp;#8217;s investments in a foreign country.

The Fund will normally invest at least 80% of the Fund&amp;#8217;s total assets in companies whose total market capitalization exceeds $2 billion. This Fund invests using a value investing style. Value funds typically emphasize stocks whose prices are below average in relation to such measures as earnings and book value; these stocks often have above-average dividend yields. Growth and value stocks have historically produced similar long-term returns, though each category has periods when it outperforms the other.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;ul type="square"&gt;&lt;li style="margin-left:-20px"&gt;&lt;p style="PADDING-LEFT: 25px"&gt; In determining whether to invest in a particular company, the Fund&amp;#8217;s Investment Manager focuses on a number of different attributes of the company, including the company&amp;#8217;s market expertise, balance sheet, improving return on equity, price to earnings ratios, industry position and strength, management, and a number of other factors. Analyzing companies in this manner is known as a &amp;#8220;bottom up&amp;#8221; approach to investing. Companies that meet or exceed specific criteria established by the Manager in the selection process are purchased. Securities are sold when they reach internally determined pricing targets or no longer qualify under the Manager&amp;#8217;s investment criteria. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;ul type="square"&gt;&lt;li style="margin-left:-20px"&gt;&lt;p style="PADDING-LEFT: 25px"&gt; The Fund may, from time to time, take temporary defensive positions that are inconsistent with the Fund&amp;#8217;s principal investment strategies in attempting to respond to adverse market, economic, political, or other conditions. When the Fund takes a defensive position, the Fund&amp;#8217;s assets will be held in cash and/or cash equivalents. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;ul type="square"&gt;&lt;li style="margin-left:-20px"&gt;&lt;p style="PADDING-LEFT: 25px"&gt;The Fund will not invest in Excluded Securities.

Share prices fluctuate from day to day, and when you sell your shares, they may be worth less than you paid for them.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li style="margin-left:-20px"&gt;&lt;p style="PADDING-LEFT: 40px"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Stock Market Risk |&lt;/b&gt; The Fund is an equity fund, so it is subject to the risks inherent in the stock market in general. The stock market is cyclical, with prices generally rising and falling over periods of time. Some of these price cycles can be pronounced and last for a long time. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li style="margin-left:-20px"&gt;&lt;p style="PADDING-LEFT: 40px"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Larger Company Investing Risk |&lt;/b&gt; Larger, more established companies may be unable to respond quickly to new competitive challenges like changes in consumer tastes or innovative smaller competitors. Also, larger companies are sometimes unable to attain the high growth rates of successful, smaller companies, especially during extended periods of economic expansion. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li style="margin-left:-20px"&gt;&lt;p style="PADDING-LEFT: 40px"&gt;&lt;b&gt; Mid-Sized Company Investing Risk |&lt;/b&gt; Investing in mid-sized companies often involves greater risk than investing in larger companies. Mid-sized companies may not have the management experience, financial resources, product diversification and competitive strengths of larger companies. The securities of mid-sized companies, therefore, tend to be more volatile than the securities of larger, more established companies. Mid-sized company stocks tend to be bought and sold less often and in smaller amounts than larger company stocks. Because of this, if a fund wants to sell a large quantity of a mid-sized company&amp;#8217;s stock, it may have to sell at a lower price than would otherwise be indicated, or it may have to sell in smaller than desired quantities over an increased time period.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li style="margin-left:-20px"&gt;&lt;p style="PADDING-LEFT: 40px"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Excluded Security Risk |&lt;/b&gt; Because the Fund does not invest in Excluded Securities, and will divest itself of securities that are subsequently discovered to be ineligible, the Fund may be riskier than other funds that invest in a broader array of securities.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li style="margin-left:-20px"&gt;&lt;p style="PADDING-LEFT: 40px"&gt;&lt;b&gt; Value Investing Risk |&lt;/b&gt; Because different types of stocks tend to shift in and out of favor depending on market and economic conditions, &amp;#8220;value&amp;#8221; stocks may perform differently from the market as a whole and other types of stocks and can continue to be undervalued by the market for long periods of time. It is also possible that a value stock may never appreciate to the extent expected. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li style="margin-left:-20px"&gt;&lt;p style="PADDING-LEFT: 40px"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Who Should Buy This Fund&lt;/b&gt; | The Fund is most appropriate for investors who understand the risks of investing in the stock market and who are willing to accept moderate amounts of volatility and risk.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ol&gt;</rr:RiskNarrativeTextBlock>

Companies &amp;#8220;headquartered&amp;#8221; in a country are those companies that have their main office in the country, but may be &amp;#8220;domiciled&amp;#8221; in another country.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;ul type="square"&gt;&lt;li style="margin-left:-20px"&gt;&lt;p style="PADDING-LEFT: 25px"&gt; This Fund invests its assets in companies which the Fund&amp;#8217;s Investment Manager believes show a high probability for superior growth. Companies that meet or exceed specific criteria established by the Manager in the selection process are purchased. Such criteria include market positioning, management strength, transparency of accounting and financial reporting, and other criteria. Securities are sold when they reach internally determined pricing targets or no longer qualify under the Manager&amp;#8217;s investment criteria. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;ul type="square"&gt;&lt;li style="margin-left:-20px"&gt;&lt;p style="PADDING-LEFT: 25px"&gt; This Fund invests using a growth investing style. Growth funds generally focus on stocks of companies believed to have above-average potential for growth in revenue, earnings, cash flow, or other similar criteria. These stocks typically have low dividend yields and above-average prices in relation to such measures as earnings and book value. Growth and value stocks have historically produced similar long-term returns, though each category has periods when it outperforms the other. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;ul type="square"&gt;&lt;li style="margin-left:-20px"&gt;&lt;p style="PADDING-LEFT: 25px"&gt;The Fund will not invest in Excluded Securities. Excluded Securities are securities issued by any company that is involved in the production or wholesale distribution of alcohol, tobacco, or gambling equipment, gambling enterprises, or which is involved, either directly or indirectly, in abortion or pornography, or promoting anti-family entertainment or alternative lifestyles.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;</rr:StrategyNarrativeTextBlock>

Share prices fluctuate from day to day, and when you sell your shares, they may be worth less than you paid for them.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li style="margin-left:-20px"&gt;&lt;p style="PADDING-LEFT: 40px"&gt; &lt;b&gt;Real Estate Investment Trust Risk&lt;/b&gt; | The Fund is subject to the risks experienced in real estate ownership, real estate financing, or both. As the economy is subjected to a period of economic deflation or interest rate increases, the demand for real estate may fall, causing a decline in the value of real estate owned. Also, as interest rates increase, the values of existing mortgages fall. The higher the duration (a calculation reflecting time risk, taking into account the average maturity of the mortgages) of the mortgages held in REITs owned by the Fund, the more sensitive the Fund is to interest rate risks. The Fund is also subject to credit risk; the Fund could lose money if mortgagors default on mortgages held in the REITs.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li style="margin-left:-20px"&gt;&lt;p style="PADDING-LEFT: 40px"&gt; &lt;b&gt;Commodities-based Exchange Traded Funds Risk&lt;/b&gt; | Commodity ETFs invest in Physical Commodities and/or Commodity Futures Contracts which Contracts are highly leveraged investment vehicles, and therefore generally considered to be high risk. By investing in Commodity ETFs the Fund assumes portions of that risk. ETFs may only purchase commodities futures contracts (the buy side), therefore the Fund&amp;#8217;s risk includes missing opportunities to realize gains by shorting futures contracts (the sell side) in deflationary economic periods. It is possible the Fund&amp;#8217;s entire ETF investment could be lost.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li style="margin-left:-20px"&gt;&lt;p style="PADDING-LEFT: 40px"&gt; &lt;b&gt;Treasury-Inflation Protection Securities Risk&lt;/b&gt; | Because the real rate of return offered by TIPS, which represents the growth of your purchasing power, is guaranteed by the Federal Government, TIPS may offer a lower return than other fixed income instruments that do not have such guarantees. Other conventional bond issues may offer higher yields, and the Fund may invest in such bond issues if deemed advantageous by the Advisor and Investment Managers. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li style="margin-left:-20px"&gt;&lt;p style="PADDING-LEFT: 40px"&gt; &lt;b&gt;Interest Rate Risk&lt;/b&gt; | When interest rates rise, bond prices fall; the higher the Fund&amp;#8217;s duration (a calculation reflecting time risk, taking into account both the average maturity of the Fund&amp;#8217;s portfolio and its average coupon return), the more sensitive the Fund is to interest rate risk.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li style="margin-left:-20px"&gt;&lt;p style="PADDING-LEFT: 40px"&gt; &lt;b&gt;Credit Risk&lt;/b&gt; | The Fund could lose money if any bonds it owns are downgraded in credit rating or go into default. For this reason, the Fund will only invest in investment-grade bonds. The degree of risk for a particular security may be reflected in its credit rating. Bonds rated at the time of purchase BBB by Standard &amp;amp; Poor&amp;#8217;s, or unrated, but determined to be of comparable quality by the investment manager, are subject to greater market risk and credit risk, or loss of principal and interest, than higher-rated securities.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li style="margin-left:-20px"&gt;&lt;p style="PADDING-LEFT: 40px"&gt; &lt;b&gt;Sector Risk&lt;/b&gt; | If certain industry sectors or types of securities don&amp;#8217;t perform as well as the Fund expects, the Fund&amp;#8217;s performance could suffer.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li style="margin-left:-20px"&gt;&lt;p style="PADDING-LEFT: 40px"&gt; &lt;b&gt;Excluded Security Risk&lt;/b&gt; | Because the Fund does not invest in Excluded Securities (including certain REITs), and will divest itself of securities that are subsequently discovered to be ineligible, the Fund may be riskier than other Funds that invest in a broader array of securities.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li style="margin-left:-20px"&gt;&lt;p style="PADDING-LEFT: 40px"&gt; &lt;b&gt;Non-Diversification Risk&lt;/b&gt; | Because the Fund may invest in a smaller number of securities, adverse changes to a single security might have a more pronounced negative effect on the Fund than if the Fund&amp;#8217;s investments were more widely distributed.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li style="margin-left:-20px"&gt;&lt;p style="PADDING-LEFT: 40px"&gt; &lt;b&gt;Who Should Buy This Fund&lt;/b&gt; | The Fund is most appropriate for investors who seek a hedge against inflation, understand the risks of investing in each of the various asset classes, and who are willing to accept moderate amounts of volatility and risk.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ol&gt;</rr:RiskNarrativeTextBlock>

These include corporate bonds, convertible securities and preferred securities. The Investment Manager will generally purchase securities for the Fund that are not investment grade (&amp;#8220;junk&amp;#8221; bonds), meaning securities with a rating of &amp;#8220;BB&amp;#8221; or lower as rated by Standard &amp;amp; Poor&amp;#8217;s or a comparable rating by another nationally recognized rating agency. The Fund may also invest in debt securities that have not been rated by one of the major rating agencies, so long as the Fund&amp;#8217;s Investment Manager has determined that the security is of comparable credit quality to similar rated securities. The Fund has adopted a non-fundamental investment policy that under normal circumstances will invest at least 80% of its assets in fixed income securities. This policy may not be changed without at least 60 days prior written notice to Fund shareholders.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;ul type="square"&gt;&lt;li style="margin-left:-20px"&gt;&lt;p style="PADDING-LEFT: 25px"&gt;In managing its portfolio, the Fund&amp;#8217;s Investment Manager concentrates on sector analysis, industry allocation and securities selection, deciding which types of bonds and industries to emphasize at a given time, and then which individual bonds to buy. The Fund attempts to anticipate shifts in the business cycle in determining types of bonds and industry sectors to target. In choosing individual securities, the Fund seeks out securities that appear to be undervalued within the emphasized industry sector. Companies that meet or exceed specific criteria established by the Manager in the selection process are purchased. Securities are sold when they reach internally determined pricing targets or no longer qualify under the Manager&amp;#8217;s investment criteria. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;ul type="square"&gt;&lt;li style="margin-left:-20px"&gt;&lt;p style="PADDING-LEFT: 25px"&gt;The Fund may, from time to time, take temporary defensive positions that are inconsistent with the Fund&amp;#8217;s principal investment strategies in attempting to respond to adverse market, economic, political, or other conditions. When the Fund takes a defensive position, the Fund&amp;#8217;s assets will be held in cash and/or cash equivalents. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;ul type="square"&gt;&lt;li style="margin-left:-20px"&gt;&lt;p style="PADDING-LEFT: 25px"&gt;The Fund will not invest in Excluded Securities.

Share prices fluctuate from day to day, and when you sell your shares, they may be worth less than you paid for them.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li style="margin-left:-20px"&gt;&lt;p style="PADDING-LEFT: 40px"&gt;&lt;b&gt;High Yield Security Risk&lt;/b&gt; | Investments in fixed-income securities that are rated below investment grade (&amp;#8220;high yield securities&amp;#8221;) by one or more Nationally Recognized Statistical Rating Organization (NRSRO) may be subject to greater risk of loss of principal and interest than investments in higher-rated fixed-income securities. High yield securities are also generally considered to be subject to greater market risk than higher-rated securities. The capacity of issuers of high yield securities to pay interest and repay principal is more likely to weaken than is that of issuers of higher-rated securities in times of deteriorating economic conditions or rising interest rates. In addition, high yield securities may be more susceptible to real or perceived adverse economic conditions than higher-rated securities. The market for high yield securities may be less liquid than the market for higher-rated securities. This can adversely affect the Fund&amp;#8217;s ability to buy or sell optimal quantities of high yield securities at desired prices.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li style="margin-left:-20px"&gt;&lt;p style="PADDING-LEFT: 40px"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Interest Rate Risk&lt;/b&gt; | When interest rates rise, bond prices fall; the higher the Fund&amp;#8217;s duration (a calculation reflecting time risk, taking into account both the average maturity of the Fund&amp;#8217;s portfolio and its average coupon return), the more sensitive the Fund is to interest rate risk. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li style="margin-left:-20px"&gt;&lt;p style="PADDING-LEFT: 40px"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Credit Risk&lt;/b&gt; | High Yield securities (&amp;#8220;junk&amp;#8221; bonds) are subject to greater risk of loss than investment grade securities. The degree of risk for a particular security may not be reflected in its credit rating, and high yield securities may be particularly subject to this risk. Bonds rated, at the time of purchase, BB or lower by Standard &amp;amp; Poor&amp;#8217;s (&amp;#8220;junk&amp;#8221; bonds) or, unrated, but determined to be of comparable quality by the Investment Manager, are subject to greater market risk and credit risk, or loss of principal and interest, than higher-rated securities. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li style="margin-left:-20px"&gt;&lt;p style="PADDING-LEFT: 40px"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Sector Risk&lt;/b&gt; | If certain industry sectors or types of securities don&amp;#8217;t perform as well as the Fund expects, the Fund&amp;#8217;s performance could suffer.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li style="margin-left:-20px"&gt;&lt;p style="PADDING-LEFT: 40px"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Excluded Security Risk&lt;/b&gt; | Because the Fund does not invest in Excluded Securities, and will divest itself of securities that are subsequently discovered to be ineligible, the Fund may be riskier that other Funds that invest in a broader array of securities.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li style="margin-left:-20px"&gt;&lt;p style="PADDING-LEFT: 40px"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Who Should Buy This Fund&lt;/b&gt; | The Fund is most appropriate for investors who want a high level of current income and are willing to accept a significant degree of volatility and risk. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ol&gt;</rr:RiskNarrativeTextBlock>

This is because the securities markets in some emerging countries are relatively small, with a limited number of companies representing a smaller number of industries. Issuers in emerging countries are frequently not subject to the same degree of regulation as U.S. issuers. Also, nationalization, expropriation or confiscatory taxation or political changes could adversely affect the Fund&amp;#8217;s investments in emerging foreign countries. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li style="margin-left:-20px"&gt;&lt;p style="PADDING-LEFT: 40px"&gt; &lt;b&gt; Issuer-Specific Changes&lt;/b&gt; | The value of an individual security or a particular type of security can be more volatile than the market as a whole and can perform differently from the value of the market as a whole.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li style="margin-left:-20px"&gt;&lt;p style="PADDING-LEFT: 40px"&gt; &lt;b&gt;Currency Risk&lt;/b&gt; | Because the securities being purchased by this Fund are frequently foreign stocks denominated in non-U.S. currency, there is a risk that fluctuations in the exchange rates between the U.S. dollar and foreign currencies may negatively affect the value of the Fund&amp;#8217;s investments in foreign securities.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li style="margin-left:-20px"&gt;&lt;p style="PADDING-LEFT: 40px"&gt;&lt;b&gt; Larger Company Investing Risk&lt;/b&gt; | Larger, more established companies may be unable to respond quickly to new competitive challenges like changes in consumer tastes or innovative smaller competitors. Also, larger companies are sometimes unable to attain the high growth rates of successful, smaller companies, especially during extended periods of economic expansion. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li style="margin-left:-20px"&gt;&lt;p style="PADDING-LEFT: 40px"&gt; &lt;b&gt;Smaller Company Investing Risk&lt;/b&gt; | Investing in smaller companies often involves greater risk than investing in larger companies. Smaller companies may not have the management experience, financial resources, product diversification and competitive strengths of larger companies. The securities of smaller companies, therefore, tend to be more volatile than the securities of larger, more established companies. Smaller company stocks tend to be bought and sold less often and in smaller amounts than larger company stocks. Because of this, if a fund wants to sell a large quantity of a small-sized company&amp;#8217;s stock, it may have to sell at a lower price than would otherwise be indicated, or it may have to sell in smaller than desired quantities over an increased time period. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li style="margin-left:-20px"&gt;&lt;p style="PADDING-LEFT: 40px"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Excluded Security Risk&lt;/b&gt; | Because the Fund does not invest in Excluded Securities, and will divest itself of securities that are subsequently discovered to be ineligible, the Fund may be riskier than other funds that invest in a broader array of securities. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li style="margin-left:-20px"&gt;&lt;p style="PADDING-LEFT: 40px"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Growth Risk&lt;/b&gt; | This Fund invests in companies after assessing their growth potential. Securities of growth companies may be more volatile than other stocks. If the Investment Manager&amp;#8217;s perception of a company&amp;#8217;s growth potential is not realized, the securities purchased may not perform as expected, reducing the Fund&amp;#8217;s return. In addition, because different types of stocks tend to shift in and out of favor depending on market and economic conditions, &amp;#8220;growth&amp;#8221; stocks may perform differently from the market as a whole and other types of securities. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li style="margin-left:-20px"&gt;&lt;p style="PADDING-LEFT: 40px"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Who Should Buy This Fund&lt;/b&gt; | This Fund is most appropriate for investors who understand the risks of investing in the international stock markets and who are willing to accept significant amounts of volatility and risk.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ol&gt;</rr:RiskNarrativeTextBlock>

Share prices fluctuate from day to day, and when you sell your shares, they may be worth less than you paid for them.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li style="margin-left:-20px"&gt;&lt;p style="PADDING-LEFT: 40px"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Stock Market Risk&lt;/b&gt; | The Fund is an equity fund, so it is subject to the risks inherent in the stock market in general. The stock market is cyclical, with prices generally rising and falling over periods of time. Some of these price cycles can be pronounced and last for a long time. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li style="margin-left:-20px"&gt;&lt;p style="PADDING-LEFT: 40px"&gt;&lt;b&gt; Foreign Risk &lt;/b&gt; | The Fund&amp;#8217;s investments in foreign securities may experience more rapid and extreme changes in value than funds with investments solely in securities of U.S. companies. This is because the securities markets of many foreign countries are relatively small, with a limited number of companies representing a smaller number of industries. Foreign issuers are not subject to the same degree of regulation as U.S. issuers. Also, nationalization, expropriation or confiscatory taxation or political changes could adversely affect the Fund&amp;#8217;s investments in a foreign country. The Fund may invest in emerging markets. Emerging markets expose the Fund to additional risks due to the lack of historical or regulatory controls.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li style="margin-left:-20px"&gt;&lt;p style="PADDING-LEFT: 40px"&gt;&lt;b&gt; Issuer-Specific Risk&lt;/b&gt; | The value of an individual security or a particular type of security can be more volatile than the market as a whole and can perform differently from the value of the market as a whole. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li style="margin-left:-20px"&gt;&lt;p style="PADDING-LEFT: 40px"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Currency Risk&lt;/b&gt; | Because the securities represented by ADRs are foreign stocks denominated in non-U.S. currency, there is a risk that fluctuations in the exchange rates between the U.S. dollar and foreign currencies may negatively affect the value of the Fund&amp;#8217;s investments in foreign securities.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li style="margin-left:-20px"&gt;&lt;p style="PADDING-LEFT: 40px"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Larger Company Investing Risk&lt;/b&gt; | Larger, more established companies may be unable to respond quickly to new competitive challenges like changes in consumer tastes or innovative smaller competitors. Also, larger companies are sometimes unable to attain the high growth rates of successful, smaller companies, especially during extended periods of economic expansion. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li style="margin-left:-20px"&gt;&lt;p style="PADDING-LEFT: 40px"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Smaller Company Investing Risk&lt;/b&gt; | Investing in smaller companies often involves greater risk than investing in larger companies. Smaller companies may not have the management experience, financial resources, product diversification and competitive strengths of larger companies. The securities of smaller companies, therefore, tend to be more volatile than the securities of larger, more established companies. Smaller company stocks tend to be bought and sold less often and in smaller amounts than larger company stocks. Because of this, if a fund wants to sell a large quantity of a small-sized company&amp;#8217;s stock, it may have to sell at a lower price than would otherwise be indicated, or it may have to sell in smaller than desired quantities over an increased time period.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li style="margin-left:-20px"&gt;&lt;p style="PADDING-LEFT: 40px"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Excluded Security Risk&lt;/b&gt; | Because the Fund does not invest in Excluded Securities, and will divest itself of securities that are subsequently discovered to be ineligible, the Fund may be riskier than other funds that invest in a broader array of securities.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li style="margin-left:-20px"&gt;&lt;p style="PADDING-LEFT: 40px"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Growth Risk&lt;/b&gt; | The Fund often invests in companies after assessing their growth potential. Securities of growth companies may be more volatile than other stocks. If the portfolio manager&amp;#8217;s perception of a company&amp;#8217;s growth potential is not realized, the securities purchased may not perform as expected, reducing the Fund&amp;#8217;s return. In addition, because different types of stocks tend to shift in and out of favor depending on market and economic conditions, &amp;#8220;growth&amp;#8221; stocks may perform differently from the market as a whole and other types of securities. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li style="margin-left:-20px"&gt;&lt;p style="PADDING-LEFT: 40px"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Who Should Buy This Fund&lt;/b&gt; | The Fund is most appropriate for investors who understand the risks of investing in the international stock markets and who are willing to accept significant amounts of volatility and risk.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ol&gt;</rr:RiskNarrativeTextBlock>

Share prices fluctuate from day to day, and when you sell your shares, they may be worth less than you paid for them.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li style="margin-left:-20px"&gt;&lt;p style="PADDING-LEFT: 40px"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Portfolio Risk &lt;/b&gt;| The Fund is indirectly subject to the following risks that are inherent in the Traditional Funds in which the Fund invests:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ol&gt;&lt;ul type="square"&gt;&lt;li style="margin-left:60px"&gt; &lt;b&gt;Stock Market Risk:&lt;/b&gt; The Fund is an equity fund, so it is subject to the risks inherent in the stock market in general. The stock market is cyclical, with prices generally rising and falling over periods of time. Some of these price cycles can be pronounced and last for a long time.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;ul type="square"&gt;&lt;li style="margin-left:60px"&gt;&lt;b&gt; Larger Company Investing Risk:&lt;/b&gt; Larger, more established companies may be unable to respond quickly to new competitive challenges like changes in consumer tastes or innovative smaller competitors. Also, larger companies are sometimes unable to attain the high growth rates of successful, smaller companies, especially during extended periods of economic expansion. &lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt; &lt;ul type="square"&gt;&lt;li style="margin-left:60px"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Mid-size Company Investing Risk: &lt;/b&gt; Investing in mid-sized companies often involves greater risk than investing in larger companies. Mid-sized companies may not have the management experience, financial resources, product diversification and competitive strengths of larger companies. The securities of mid-sized companies, therefore, tend to be more volatile than the securities of larger, more established companies. Mid-sized company stocks tend to be bought and sold less often and in smaller amounts than larger company stocks. Because of this, if a fund wants to sell a large quantity of a mid-sized company&amp;#8217;s stock, it may have to sell at a lower price than would otherwise be indicated, or it may have to sell in smaller than desired quantities over an increased time period. &lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt; &lt;ul type="square"&gt;&lt;li style="margin-left:60px"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Small Company Investing Risk: &lt;/b&gt; Investing in smaller companies often involves greater risk than investing in larger companies. Smaller companies may not have the management experience, financial resources, product diversification and competitive strengths of larger companies. The securities of smaller companies, therefore, tend to be more volatile than the securities of larger, more established companies. Smaller company stocks tend to be bought and sold less often and in smaller amounts than larger company stocks. Because of this, if a fund wants to sell a large quantity of a small-sized company&amp;#8217;s stock, it may have to sell at a lower price than would otherwise be indicated, or it may have to sell in smaller than desired quantities over an increased time period. &lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt; &lt;ul type="square"&gt;&lt;li style="margin-left:60px"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Excluded Security Risk: &lt;/b&gt; Because the Fund does not invest in Excluded Securities, and will divest itself of securities that are subsequently discovered to be ineligible, the Fund may be riskier than other funds that invest in a broader array of securities. &lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt; &lt;ul type="square"&gt;&lt;li style="margin-left:60px"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Growth Risk: &lt;/b&gt; The Fund often invests in companies after assessing their growth potential. Securities of growth companies may be more volatile than other stocks. If the portfolio manager&amp;#8217;s perception of a company&amp;#8217;s growth potential is not realized, the securities purchased may not perform as expected, reducing the Fund&amp;#8217;s return. In addition, because different types of stocks tend to shift in and out of favor depending on market and economic conditions, &amp;#8220;growth&amp;#8221; stocks may perform differently from the market as a whole and other types of securities. &lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt; &lt;ul type="square"&gt;&lt;li style="margin-left:60px"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Value Investing Risk: &lt;/b&gt; Because different types of stocks tend to shift in and out of favor depending on market and economic conditions, &amp;#8220;value&amp;#8221; stocks may perform differently from the market as a whole and other types of stocks and can continue to be undervalued by the market for long periods of time. It is also possible that a value stock may never appreciate to the extent expected. &lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt; &lt;ul type="square"&gt;&lt;li style="margin-left:60px"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Sector Risk: &lt;/b&gt; If certain industry sectors or types of securities don&amp;#8217;t perform as well as the Fund expects, the Fund&amp;#8217;s performance could suffer. &lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt; &lt;ul type="square"&gt;&lt;li style="margin-left:60px"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Foreign Risk: &lt;/b&gt; The Fund&amp;#8217;s investments in foreign securities may experience more rapid and extreme changes in value than funds with investments solely in securities of U.S. companies. This is because the securities markets of many foreign countries are relatively small, with a limited number of companies representing a smaller number of industries. Foreign issuers are not subject to the same degree of regulation as U.S. issuers. Also, nationalization, expropriation or confiscatory taxation or political changes could adversely affect the Fund&amp;#8217;s investments in a foreign country. &lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;ul type="square"&gt;&lt;li style="margin-left:60px"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Currency Risk: &lt;/b&gt; Because the securities represented by ADRs are foreign stocks denominated in non-U.S. currency, there is a risk that fluctuations in the exchange rates between the U.S. dollar and foreign currencies may negatively affect the value of the Fund&amp;#8217;s investments in foreign securities. &lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;ul type="square"&gt;&lt;li style="margin-left:60px"&gt;&lt;b&gt;High Yield Security Risk: &lt;/b&gt; Investments in fixed-income securities that are rated below investment grade (&amp;#8220;high yield securities&amp;#8221;) by one or more NRSROs may be subject to greater risk of loss of principal and interest than investments in higher-rated fixed-income securities. High yield securities are also generally considered to be subject to greater market risk than higher-rated securities. The capacity of issuers of high yield securities to pay interest and repay principal is more likely to weaken than is that of issuers of higher-rated securities in times of deteriorating economic conditions or rising interest rates. In addition, high yield securities may be more susceptible to real or perceived adverse economic conditions than higher-rated securities. The market for high yield securities may be less liquid than the market for higher-rated securities. This can adversely affect the Fund&amp;#8217;s ability to buy or sell optimal quantities of high yield securities at desired prices. &lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;ul type="square"&gt;&lt;li style="margin-left:60px"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Interest Rate Risk: &lt;/b&gt; To the extent that the Fund invests in the High Yield Bond Fund and other fixed income securities, the Fund will be exposed to interest rate risk. When interest rates rise, bond prices fall; the higher the High Yield Bond Fund&amp;#8217;s duration (a calculation reflecting time risk, taking into account both the average maturity of the Fund&amp;#8217;s portfolio and its average coupon return), the more sensitive the Fund is to interest rate risk. &lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;ul type="square"&gt;&lt;li style="margin-left:60px"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Credit Risk: &lt;/b&gt; To the extent that the Fund invests in the High Yield Bond Fund and other fixed income securities, the Fund will be exposed to credit risk. The Fund could lose money if any bonds owned by the High Yield Bond Fund are downgraded in credit rating or go into default. &lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;ul type="square"&gt;&lt;li style="margin-left:60px"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Real Estate Investment Trust Risk: &lt;/b&gt; The Fund is subject to the risks experienced in real estate ownership, real estate financing, or both. As the economy is subjected to a period of economic deflation or interest rate increases, the demand for real estate may fall, causing a decline in the value of real estate owned. Also, as interest rates increase, the values of existing mortgages fall. The higher the duration (a calculation reflecting time risk, taking into account the average maturity of the mortgages) of the mortgages held in REITs owned by the Fund, the more sensitive the Fund is to interest rate risks. The Fund is also subject to credit risk; the Fund could lose money if mortgagors default on mortgages held in the REITs. &lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;ul type="square"&gt;&lt;li style="margin-left:60px"&gt;&lt;b&gt; Commodities-based Exchange Traded Funds Risk: &lt;/b&gt; Commodity ETFs invest in Physical Commodities and/or Commodity Futures Contracts, which Contracts are highly leveraged investment vehicles, and therefore generally considered to be high risk. By investing in Commodity ETFs, the Fund assumes portions of that risk. ETFs may only purchase commodities futures contracts (the buy side), therefore the Fund&amp;#8217;s risk includes missing opportunities to realize gains by shorting futures contracts (the sell side) in deflationary economic periods. It is possible the Fund&amp;#8217;s entire ETF investment could be lost. &lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;ul type="square"&gt;&lt;li style="margin-left:60px"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Treasury-Inflation Protected Securities Risk: &lt;/b&gt; Because the real rate of return offered by TIPS, which represents the growth of your purchasing power, is guaranteed by the Federal Government, TIPS may offer a lower return than other fixed income instruments that do not have such guarantees. Other conventional bond issues may offer higher yields, and the Fund may invest in such bond issues if deemed advantageous by the Advisor and Investment Managers. &lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;ul type="square"&gt;&lt;li style="margin-left:60px"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Non-Diversification Risk: &lt;/b&gt; Because the Fund may invest in a smaller number of securities, adverse changes to a single security might have a more pronounced negative effect on the Fund than if the Fund&amp;#8217;s investments were more widely distributed. &lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;ul type="square"&gt;&lt;li style="margin-left:60px"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Israel Risk: &lt;/b&gt; Investments in the securities of Israel may experience more rapid and extreme changes in value than funds with investments solely in securities of U.S. companies or funds that invest across a larger spectrum of the foreign market. This is because the securities market in Israel is relatively small, with a limited number of companies representing a smaller number of industries. Israeli issuers are not subject to the same degree of regulation as U.S. issuers. Also, nationalization, expropriation or confiscatory taxation or political changes could adversely affect the Fund&amp;#8217;s investments in a foreign country. &lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;ul type="square"&gt;&lt;li style="margin-left:60px"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Emerging Market Risk: &lt;/b&gt; The Fund&amp;#8217;s investments in the securities of emerging countries may experience more rapid and extreme changes in value than funds with investments solely in securities of U.S. companies or funds that invest across a larger spectrum of the foreign market. This is because the securities markets in some emerging countries are relatively small, with a limited number of companies representing a smaller number of industries. Issuers in emerging countries are frequently not subject to the same degree of regulation as U.S. issuers. Also, nationalization, expropriation or confiscatory taxation or political changes could adversely affect the Fund&amp;#8217;s investments in emerging foreign countries. &lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;table style="BORDER-COLLAPSE:COLLAPSE" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"&gt;&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td width="4%" valign="top" align="left"&gt;3.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td align="left" valign="top"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Who Should Buy This Fund &lt;/b&gt;| The Fund is most appropriate for investors who understand the risks of investing in moderately- to aggressively-oriented equity and bond funds and who wish to allocate their investments among multiple funds with a single investment. &lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;/table&gt;</rr:RiskNarrativeTextBlock>

  <rr:StrategyNarrativeTextBlock contextRef="Duration_30Jan2012_29Jan2013S000033751_Member">&lt;ul type="square"&gt;&lt;li style="margin-left:-20px"&gt;&lt;p style="PADDING-LEFT: 25px"&gt; This Fund seeks to achieve its investment objectives by normally investing at least 80% of the Fund&amp;#8217;s total assets in the common stock of companies domiciled and/or headquartered in Israel through the purchase of American Depository Receipts (ADRs) and direct investments in such companies on Foreign stock exchanges, without regard to market capitalizations.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;ul type="square"&gt;&lt;li style="margin-left:-20px"&gt;&lt;p style="PADDING-LEFT: 25px"&gt; This Fund invests using a growth investing style. Growth funds generally focus on stocks of companies believed to have above-average potential for growth in revenue, earnings, cash flow, or other similar criteria. These stocks typically have low dividend yields and above-average prices in relation to such measures as earnings and book value. Growth and value stocks have historically produced similar long-term returns, though each category has periods when it outperforms the other.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;ul type="square"&gt;&lt;li style="margin-left:-20px"&gt;&lt;p style="PADDING-LEFT: 25px"&gt; The Fund invests its assets in companies which the Fund&amp;#8217;s Investment Manager believes show a high probability for superior growth. Companies that meet or exceed specific criteria established by the Manager in the selection process are purchased. Securities are sold when they reach internally determined pricing targets or no longer qualify under the Manager&amp;#8217;s investment criteria.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;ul type="square"&gt;&lt;li style="margin-left:-20px"&gt;&lt;p style="PADDING-LEFT: 25px"&gt; The Fund will not invest in Excluded Securities. Excluded Securities are securities issued by any company that is involved in the production or wholesale distribution of alcohol, tobacco, or gambling equipment, gambling enterprises, or which is involved, either directly or indirectly, in abortion or pornography, or promoting anti-family entertainment or alternative lifestyles.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;</rr:StrategyNarrativeTextBlock>

Share prices fluctuate from day to day, and when you sell your shares, they may be worth less than you paid for them.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li style="margin-left:-20px"&gt;&lt;p style="PADDING-LEFT: 40px"&gt;Stock Market Risk | The Fund is an equity fund, so it is subject to the risks inherent in the stock market in general. The stock market is cyclical, with prices generally rising and falling over periods of time. Some of these price cycles can be pronounced and last for a long time&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li style="margin-left:-20px"&gt;&lt;p style="PADDING-LEFT: 40px"&gt; &lt;b&gt;Israel Risk&lt;/b&gt; | The Fund&amp;#8217;s investments in the securities of Israel may experience more rapid and extreme changes in value than funds with investments solely in securities of U.S. companies or funds that invest across a larger spectrum of the foreign market. This is because the securities market in Israel is relatively small, with a limited number of companies representing a smaller number of industries. Israeli issuers are not subject to the same degree of regulation as U.S. issuers. Also, nationalization, expropriation or confiscatory taxation or political changes could adversely affect the Fund&amp;#8217;s investments in a foreign country.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li style="margin-left:-20px"&gt;&lt;p style="PADDING-LEFT: 40px"&gt; &lt;b&gt; Issuer-Specific Risk&lt;/b&gt; | The value of an individual security or a particular type of security can be more volatile than the market as a whole and can perform differently from the value of the market as a whole. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li style="margin-left:-20px"&gt;&lt;p style="PADDING-LEFT: 40px"&gt; &lt;b&gt;Country-Specific Risk&lt;/b&gt; | The Fund invests only in Israeli securities, and Israel is subject to unique political and economic risks. As a result, Israeli securities can be more volatile than the market as a whole and can perform differently from the value of the market as a whole.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li style="margin-left:-20px"&gt;&lt;p style="PADDING-LEFT: 40px"&gt; &lt;b&gt;Currency Risk&lt;/b&gt; | Because the securities represented by ADRs are foreign stocks denominated in non-U.S. currency, there is a risk that fluctuations in the exchange rates between the U.S. dollar and foreign currencies may negatively affect the value of the Fund&amp;#8217;s investments in foreign securities.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li style="margin-left:-20px"&gt;&lt;p style="PADDING-LEFT: 40px"&gt; &lt;b&gt;Larger Company Investing Risk&lt;/b&gt; | Larger, more established companies may be unable to respond quickly to new competitive challenges like changes in consumer tastes or innovative smaller competitors. Also, larger companies are sometimes unable to attain the high growth rates of successful, smaller companies, especially during extended periods of economic expansion.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li style="margin-left:-20px"&gt;&lt;p style="PADDING-LEFT: 40px"&gt; &lt;b&gt;Smaller Company Investing Risk&lt;/b&gt; | Investing in smaller companies often involves greater risk than investing in larger companies. Smaller companies may not have the management experience, financial resources, product diversification and competitive strengths of larger companies. The securities of smaller companies, therefore, tend to be more volatile than the securities of larger, more established companies. Smaller company stocks tend to be bought and sold less often and in smaller amounts than larger company stocks. Because of this, if a fund wants to sell a large quantity of a small-sized company&amp;#8217;s stock, it may have to sell at a lower price than would otherwise be indicated, or it may have to sell in smaller than desired quantities over an increased time period.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li style="margin-left:-20px"&gt;&lt;p style="PADDING-LEFT: 40px"&gt; &lt;b&gt;Excluded Security Risk&lt;/b&gt; | Because the Fund does not invest in Excluded Securities, and will divest itself of securities that are subsequently discovered to be ineligible, the Fund may be riskier than other funds that invest in a broader array of securities.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li style="margin-left:-20px"&gt;&lt;p style="PADDING-LEFT: 40px"&gt; &lt;b&gt;Growth Risk&lt;/b&gt; | The Fund often invests in companies after assessing their growth potential. Securities of growth companies may be more volatile than other stocks. If the portfolio manager&amp;#8217;s perception of a company&amp;#8217;s growth potential is not realized, the securities purchased may not perform as expected, reducing the Fund&amp;#8217;s return. In addition, because different types of stocks tend to shift in and out of favor depending on market and economic conditions, &amp;#8220;growth&amp;#8221; stocks may perform differently from the market as a whole and other types of securities.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li style="margin-left:-20px"&gt;&lt;p style="PADDING-LEFT: 40px"&gt; &lt;b&gt;Who Should Buy This Fund&lt;/b&gt; | The Fund is most appropriate for investors who understand the risks of investing in the stock market and who are willing to accept significant amounts of volatility and risk.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ol&gt;</rr:RiskNarrativeTextBlock>

Also, larger companies are sometimes unable to attain the high growth rates of successful, smaller companies, especially during extended periods of economic expansion. &lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;ul type="square"&gt;&lt;li style="margin-left:60px"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Mid-size Company Investing Risk:&lt;/b&gt; Investing in mid-sized companies often involves greater risk than investing in larger companies. Mid-sized companies may not have the management experience, financial resources, product diversification and competitive strengths of larger companies. The securities of mid-sized companies, therefore, tend to be more volatile than the securities of larger, more established companies. Mid-sized company stocks tend to be bought and sold less often and in smaller amounts than larger company stocks. Because of this, if a fund wants to sell a large quantity of a mid-sized company&amp;#8217;s stock, it may have to sell at a lower price than would otherwise be indicated, or it may have to sell in smaller than desired quantities over an increased time period. &lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;  &lt;ul type="square"&gt;&lt;li style="margin-left:60px"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Small Company Investing Risk:&lt;/b&gt; Investing in smaller companies often involves greater risk than investing in larger companies.

Smaller company stocks tend to be bought and sold less often and in smaller amounts than larger company stocks. Because of this, if a fund wants to sell a large quantity of a small-sized company&amp;#8217;s stock, it may have to sell at a lower price than would otherwise be indicated, or it may have to sell in smaller than desired quantities over an increased time period. &lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;  &lt;ul type="square"&gt;&lt;li style="margin-left:60px"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Excluded Security Risk:&lt;/b&gt; Because the Fund does not invest in Excluded Securities, and will divest itself of securities that are subsequently discovered to be ineligible, the Fund may be riskier than other funds that invest in a broader array of securities. &lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;  &lt;ul type="square"&gt;&lt;li style="margin-left:60px"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Growth Risk:&lt;/b&gt; The Fund often invests in companies after assessing their growth potential. Securities of growth companies may be more volatile than other stocks. If the portfolio manager&amp;#8217;s perception of a company&amp;#8217;s growth potential is not realized, the securities purchased may not perform as expected, reducing the Fund&amp;#8217;s return. In addition, because different types of stocks tend to shift in and out of favor depending on market and economic conditions, &amp;#8220;growth&amp;#8221; stocks may perform differently from the market as a whole and other types of securities. &lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;  &lt;ul type="square"&gt;&lt;li style="margin-left:60px"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Value Investing Risk:&lt;/b&gt; Because different types of stocks tend to shift in and out of favor depending on market and economic conditions, &amp;#8220;value&amp;#8221; stocks may perform differently from the market as a whole and other types of stocks and can continue to be undervalued by the market for long periods of time. It is also possible that a value stock may never appreciate to the extent expected. &lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;  &lt;ul type="square"&gt;&lt;li style="margin-left:60px"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Sector Risk: &lt;/b&gt; If certain industry sectors or types of securities don&amp;#8217;t perform as well as the Fund expects, the Fund&amp;#8217;s performance could suffer. &lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;  &lt;ul type="square"&gt;&lt;li style="margin-left:60px"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Foreign Risk: &lt;/b&gt; The Fund&amp;#8217;s investments in foreign securities may experience more rapid and extreme changes in value than funds with investments solely in securities of U.S. companies. This is because the securities markets of many foreign countries are relatively small, with a limited number of companies representing a smaller number of industries. Foreign issuers are not subject to the same degree of regulation as U.S. issuers. Also, nationalization, expropriation or confiscatory taxation or political changes could adversely affect the Fund&amp;#8217;s investments in a foreign country. &lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;  &lt;ul type="square"&gt;&lt;li style="margin-left:60px"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Currency Risk: &lt;/b&gt; Because the securities represented by ADRs are foreign stocks denominated in non-U.S. currency, there is a risk that fluctuations in the exchange rates between the U.S. dollar and foreign currencies may negatively affect the value of the Fund&amp;#8217;s investments in foreign securities. &lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;  &lt;ul type="square"&gt;&lt;li style="margin-left:60px"&gt;&lt;b&gt;High Yield Security Risk: &lt;/b&gt; Investments in fixed-income securities that are rated below investment grade (&amp;#8220;high yield securities&amp;#8221;) by one or more NRSROs may be subject to greater risk of loss of principal and interest than investments in higher-rated fixed-income securities. High yield securities are also generally considered to be subject to greater market risk than higher-rated securities. The capacity of issuers of high yield securities to pay interest and repay principal is more likely to weaken than is that of issuers of higher&amp;#8212; rated securities in times of deteriorating economic conditions or rising interest rates. In addition, high yield securities may be more susceptible to real or perceived adverse economic conditions than higher-rated securities. The market for high yield securities may be less liquid than the market for higher-rated securities. This can adversely affect the Fund&amp;#8217;s ability to buy or sell optimal quantities of high yield securities at desired prices. &lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;  &lt;ul type="square"&gt;&lt;li style="margin-left:60px"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Interest Rate Risk:&lt;/b&gt; To the extent that the Fund invests in the High Yield Bond Fund and other fixed income securities, the Fund will be exposed to interest rate risk. When interest rates rise, bond prices fall; the higher the High Yield Bond Fund&amp;#8217;s duration (a calculation reflecting time risk, taking into account both the average maturity of the Fund&amp;#8217;s portfolio and its average coupon return), the more sensitive the Fund is to interest rate risk. &lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;  &lt;ul type="square"&gt;&lt;li style="margin-left:60px"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Credit Risk:&lt;/b&gt; To the extent that the Fund invests in the High Yield Bond Fund and other fixed income securities, the Fund will be exposed to credit risk. The Fund could lose money if any bonds owned by the High Yield Bond Fund are downgraded in credit rating or go into default. &lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;  &lt;ul type="square"&gt;&lt;li style="margin-left:60px"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Real Estate Investment Trust Risk:&lt;/b&gt; The Fund is subject to the risks experienced in real estate ownership, real estate financing, or both. As the economy is subjected to a period of economic deflation or interest rate increases, the demand for real estate may fall, causing a decline in the value of real estate owned. Also, as interest rates increase, the values of existing mortgages fall. The higher the duration (a calculation reflecting time risk, taking into account the average maturity of the mortgages) of the mortgages held in REITs owned by the Fund, the more sensitive the Fund is to interest rate risks. The Fund is also subject to credit risk; the Fund could lose money if mortgagors default on mortgages held in the REITs. &lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;  &lt;ul type="square"&gt;&lt;li style="margin-left:60px"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Commodities-based Exchange Traded Funds Risk: &lt;/b&gt; Commodity ETFs invest in Physical Commodities and/or Commodity Futures Contracts, which Contracts are highly leveraged investment vehicles, and therefore generally considered to be high risk. By investing in Commodity ETFs, the Fund assumes portions of that risk. ETFs may only purchase commodities futures contracts (the buy side), therefore the Fund&amp;#8217;s risk includes missing opportunities to realize gains by shorting futures contracts (the sell side) in deflationary economic periods. It is possible the Fund&amp;#8217;s entire ETF investment could be lost. &lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;  &lt;ul type="square"&gt;&lt;li style="margin-left:60px"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Treasury-Inflation Protected Securities Risk:&lt;/b&gt; Because the real rate of return offered by TIPS, which represents the growth of your purchasing power, is guaranteed by the Federal Government, TIPS may offer a lower return than other fixed income instruments that do not have such guarantees. Other conventional bond issues may offer higher yields, and the Fund may invest in such bond issues if deemed advantageous by the Advisor and Investment Managers. &lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;  &lt;ul type="square"&gt;&lt;li style="margin-left:60px"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Non-Diversification Risk:&lt;/b&gt; Because the Fund may invest in a smaller number of securities, adverse changes to a single security might have a more pronounced negative effect on the Fund than if the Fund&amp;#8217;s investments were more widely distributed. &lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;  &lt;ul type="square"&gt;&lt;li style="margin-left:60px"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Israel Risk:&lt;/b&gt; Investments in the securities of Israel may experience more rapid and extreme changes in value than funds with investments solely in securities of U.S. companies or funds that invest across a larger spectrum of the foreign market. This is because the securities market in Israel is relatively small, with a limited number of companies representing a smaller number of industries. Israeli issuers are not subject to the same degree of regulation as U.S. issuers. Also, nationalization, expropriation or confiscatory taxation or political changes could adversely affect the Fund&amp;#8217;s investments in a foreign country. &lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;  &lt;ul type="square"&gt;&lt;li style="margin-left:60px"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Emerging Market Risk&lt;/b&gt; | The Fund&amp;#8217;s investments in the securities of emerging countries may experience more rapid and extreme changes in value than funds with investments solely in securities of U.S. companies or funds that invest across a larger spectrum of the foreign market. This is because the securities markets in some emerging countries are relatively small, with a limited number of companies representing a smaller number of industries. Issuers in emerging countries are frequently not subject to the same degree of regulation as U.S. issuers. Also, nationalization, expropriation or confiscatory taxation or political changes could adversely affect the Fund&amp;#8217;s investments in emerging foreign countries. &lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;  &lt;table style="BORDER-COLLAPSE:COLLAPSE" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"&gt;&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td width="4%" valign="top" align="left"&gt;3.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td align="left" valign="top"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Who Should Buy This Fund &lt;/b&gt; | The Fund is most appropriate for investors who understand the risks of investing in moderately risk-oriented equity and bond funds, but who also wish to realize current income and allocate their investments among multiple funds with a single investment.&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;/table&gt;</rr:RiskNarrativeTextBlock>
