Jun. 28, 2024
Risk Lose Money [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block] The fund's share price fluctuates, sometimes dramatically, which means you could lose money.
Risk Not Insured [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block] An investment in the fund is not a bank deposit. It is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) or any other government agency.
Risk Nondiversified Status [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]  Non-diversification risk: The fund is non-diversified, which means that the fund may invest a relatively high percentage of its assets in a limited number of issuers. Therefore, the fund's performance may be more vulnerable to changes in the market value of a single issuer or group of issuers and more susceptible to risks associated with a single economic, political or regulatory occurrence than a diversified fund.
Risks of stock investing [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]  Risks of stock investing: Stocks generally fluctuate more in value than bonds and may decline significantly over short time periods. There is the chance that stock prices overall will decline because stock markets tend to move in cycles, with periods of rising prices and falling prices. The market value of a stock may decline due to general market conditions or because of factors that affect the particular company or the company's industry.
Innovation-driven company risk [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]  Innovation-driven company risk: There can be no assurance that a company identified as an innovation-driven company by NIMNA will ultimately introduce or benefit from a new product or service or that such product or service may not be significantly delayed or have the affect NIMNA anticipated. The returns on a portfolio of securities that are viewed by NIMNA as innovation-driven companies may trail the returns of a portfolio that is not limited to securities of innovation-driven companies. Investing only in securities of innovation-driven companies may affect the fund's exposure to certain types of investments and may adversely impact the fund's performance depending on whether such investments are in or out of favor in the market.
Market sector risk [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]  Market sector risk: The fund may significantly overweight or underweight certain companies, industries or market sectors, which may cause the fund's performance to be more or less sensitive to developments affecting those companies, industries or sectors.
Information technology companies risk [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]  Information technology companies risk:  The information technology sector has been among the most volatile sectors of the stock market.  Information technology companies involve greater risk because their revenue and/or earnings tend to be less predictable (and some companies may be experiencing significant losses) and their share prices tend to be more volatile.  Certain information technology companies may have limited product lines, markets or financial resources, or may depend on a limited management group.  In addition, these companies are strongly affected by worldwide technological developments, and their products and services may not be economically successful or may quickly become outdated.  Investor perception may play a greater role in determining the day-to-day value of information technology stocks than it does in other sectors. Fund investments may decline dramatically in value if anticipated products or services are delayed or cancelled.
Healthcare companies risk [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]  Healthcare companies risk: The healthcare sector is subject to government regulation and reimbursement rates, as well as government approval of products and services, which could have a significant effect on price and availability. Companies in the healthcare sector can be significantly affected by product liability claims, pricing pressure, rapid obsolescence of products or services, and patent expirations.
Growth stock risk [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]  Growth stock risk: The fund invests in stocks of companies the sub-adviser believes are growth-oriented stocks (growth stocks). The prices of growth stocks may be based largely on expectations of future earnings, and their prices can decline rapidly and significantly in reaction to negative news. Growth stocks may underperform value stocks and stocks in other broad style categories (and the stock market as a whole) over any period of time and may shift in and out of favor with investors generally, sometimes rapidly, depending on changes in market, economic, and other factors.
Market capitalization risk (small-, mid- and large-cap stock risk) [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]  Market capitalization risk (small-, mid- and large-cap stock risk): To the extent the fund emphasizes investments in small-, mid- or large-cap stocks, it will assume the associated risks. At any given time, any of these market capitalizations may be out of favor with investors. Compared to small- and mid-cap companies, large-cap companies may be less responsive to changes and opportunities affecting their business. To the extent the fund invests in small- and mid-cap companies, it will be subject to additional risks because the operating histories of these companies tend to be more limited, their earnings and revenues less predictable (and some companies may be experiencing significant losses), and their share prices more volatile than those of larger, more established companies. The shares of smaller companies tend to trade less frequently than those of larger, more established companies, which can adversely affect the pricing of these securities and the fund's ability to sell these securities. Smaller companies may have limited product lines, markets or financial resources, or may depend on a limited management group.
Market risk [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]  Market risk: The value of the securities in which the fund invests may be affected by political, regulatory, economic and social developments, and developments that impact specific economic sectors, industries or segments of the market. In addition, turbulence in financial markets and reduced liquidity in equity, credit and/or fixed income markets may negatively affect many issuers, which could adversely affect the fund. Global economies and financial markets are becoming increasingly interconnected, and conditions and events in one country, region or financial market may adversely impact issuers in a different country, region or financial market. These risks may be magnified if certain events or developments adversely interrupt the global supply chain; in these and other circumstances, such risks might affect companies world-wide. A widespread outbreak of an infectious illness, such as COVID-19, and efforts to contain its spread, may result in market volatility, inflation, reduced liquidity of certain instruments, disruption in the trading of certain instruments, and systemic economic weakness. To the extent the fund may overweight its investments in certain countries, companies, industries or market sectors, such positions will increase the fund's exposure to risk of loss from adverse developments affecting those countries, companies, industries or sectors.
Management risk [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]  Management risk: The investment process used by the fund's sub-adviser could fail to achieve the fund's investment goal and cause your fund investment to lose value.
Issuer risk [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]  Issuer risk: A security's market value may decline for a number of reasons which directly relate to the issuer, such as management performance, financial leverage and reduced demand for the issuer's products or services, or factors that affect the issuer's industry, such as labor shortages or increased production costs and competitive conditions within an industry.
Authorized participants, market makers and liquidity providers risk [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]  Authorized participants, market makers and liquidity providers risk: The fund has a limited number of financial institutions that may act as Authorized Participants, which are responsible for the creation and redemption activity for the fund. In addition, there may be a limited number of market makers and/or liquidity providers in the marketplace. To the extent either of the following events occur, fund shares may trade at a material discount to net asset value and possibly face delisting: (i) Authorized Participants exit the business or otherwise become unable to process creation and/or redemption orders and no other Authorized Participants step forward to perform these services, or (ii) market makers and/or liquidity providers exit the business or significantly reduce their business activities and no other entities step forward to perform their functions.
Fluctuation of net asset value, share premiums and discounts risk [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]  Fluctuation of net asset value, share premiums and discounts risk: As with all exchange-traded funds, fund shares may be bought and sold in the secondary market at market prices. The trading prices of fund shares in the secondary market may differ from the fund's daily net asset value per share and there may be times when the market price of the shares is more than the net asset value per share (premium) or less than the net asset value per share (discount). This risk is heightened in times of market volatility or periods of steep market declines.
Trading issues risk [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]  Trading issues risk: Although fund shares are listed for trading on an exchange and may be listed or traded on other U.S. and non-U.S. stock exchanges as well, there can be no assurance that an active trading market for such fund shares will develop or be maintained. Trading in fund shares may be halted due to market conditions or for reasons that, in the view of the listing exchange, make trading in fund shares inadvisable. In addition, trading in fund shares on an exchange is subject to trading halts caused by extraordinary market volatility pursuant to exchange "circuit breaker" rules. There can be no assurance that the requirements of the listing exchange necessary to maintain the listing of the fund will continue to be met or will remain unchanged or that fund shares will trade with any volume, or at all, on any stock exchange.
Limited operating history risk [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]  Limited operating history risk: The fund is recently organized with limited operating history and there can be no assurance that the fund will grow to or maintain sufficient assets to achieve investment and trading efficiencies.
