Portfolio Turnover
The Fund pays transaction costs such as commissions, when it buys and sells securities (or “turns over” the portfolio). A higher portfolio turnover rate may indicate higher transaction costs and may result in higher taxes when Fund shares are held in a taxable account. These costs, which are not reflected in annual fund operating expenses or in the example, affect the Fund’s performance. During the most recent fiscal year, the Fund’s portfolio turnover rate was 473% of the average value of its portfolio.

INVESTMENT STRATEGIES, RISKS, AND PERFORMANCE
Summary of Principal Investment Strategies
The Fund invests primarily in equity securities of companies in the real estate industry, including real estate investment trusts (“REITs”). Under normal circumstances, the Fund expects to invest at least 80% of its assets in these securities. The Fund considers a company to be in the real estate industry if construction, ownership, management, financing or sales of residential, commercial or industrial real estate account for at least 50% of its gross revenues or net profits. Companies in the real estate industry include those with significant real estate holdings, such as hotel chains and mining, lumber and paper companies. The Fund may invest up to 20% of its assets in equity or debt securities of companies outside the real estate industry. For example, the Fund has invested in financial institutions and manufacturers of consumer goods. The debt and fixed income securities in which the Fund may invest may be of any credit quality (including below investment grade securities commonly referred to as “junk bonds”) and of any maturity.
The Fund may invest in securities of issuers of any size. The Fund may invest in the securities of U.S. and foreign issuers. There is no

limit on the extent to which the Fund may invest in foreign companies or be exposed to issuers from any particular country. The Fund may, from time to time, invest a significant portion of the Fund’s assets in a small number of companies. The Fund’s investment adviser employs a flexible investment style and seeks to take advantage of opportunities as they arise. As a consequence of the Fund’s investment strategy, the Fund generally has a high rate of portfolio turnover.
Summary of Principal Risks
The Fund has a long–term approach to achieve its investment objective and is not appropriate for investors that do not intend to hold the fund over a long term. You may lose money if you invest in the Fund. The following is a summary description of certain risks of investing in the Fund:
Real Estate Industry and Market Risk. Fund performance may be negatively affected by factors with an adverse effect on companies in the real estate industry, such as changes in property values, taxes, interest rates, occupancy rates, government regulations, potential liability under environmental and hazardous waste laws, and, for companies engaged in activities relating to natural resources, factors affecting the value of the products they extract or produce.
Industry/Sector Exposure Risk. The Fund's performance could be negatively affected if it invests heavily in an industry or in a sector that performs poorly.
Market Risk. You may lose money on your investment due to a fall in prices of stocks or periods of below-average performance in the stock market or due to specific conditions that affect particular industries or issuers.
Risk of Investing in Fewer Issuers. If the Fund invests in larger positions in a smaller number of issuers, the Fund will be more susceptible to events negatively affecting those issuers. The Fund may invest in issuers whose securities react similarly to specific
3 CGM REALTY FUND MAY 2022 SUMMARY PROSPECTUS ————————————————



economic, market, political or other developments, which increases the risk associated with investing in fewer issuers.
Management Risk. The Fund is subject to management risk because it is actively managed and the Fund is generally invested in a small number of securities and industries. Factors that may be difficult to predict, like changes in interest rates or securities valuations, may not lead to the results intended by the investment adviser and may have an adverse effect on the value or performance of the Fund.
Foreign Securities Risk. Investments in foreign issuers are subject to risks of possible adverse political and economic developments abroad. Foreign securities markets may be less liquid and more volatile than U.S. markets. Foreign investments may also involve risks of changes in foreign currency exchange rates. To the extent the Fund focuses its investments in a single country or only a few countries in a particular geographic region, economic, political, regulatory or other conditions affecting such country or region may have a greater impact on Fund performance relative to a more geographically diversified fund.
Small and Medium-Sized Companies Risk. The Fund’s investments in small and medium-sized companies involve greater risk than is typically associated with larger, more established companies because these securities may be more volatile and are more likely to have returns that vary significantly from the overall markets.
Key Personnel Risk. If one or more key individuals become unavailable to the investment adviser, including the Fund’s portfolio manager, who is important to the management of the Fund’s assets, the Fund could suffer material adverse effects, including substantial share redemptions that could require the Fund to sell portfolio securities at times when markets are not favorable and/or result in increased expenses to the Fund.
Recent Events. The novel coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic and related government and public responses have impacted and may continue to impact markets around the world, and could adversely affect the financial performance of certain sectors of the economy
———————————————— CGM REALTY FUND MAY 2022 SUMMARY PROSPECTUS 4



and individual issuers. The adverse consequences and long-term effect of the pandemic cannot be accurately predicted and could negatively impact the Fund's performance and the value of an investment in the Fund.
The Russian invasion of Ukraine and the possibility of wider conflict may increase volatility and uncertainty in certain financial markets and may adversely affect regional and global economies, certain sectors of the economy and individual issuers. The conflict may also further contribute to the ongoing disruption of global supply chains for various goods and commodities, including oil and natural gas. Economic sanctions imposed on Russia and its supporters, along with any retaliatory actions or countermeasures, may exacerbate the effects of the conflict. The extent and duration of the conflict cannot be accurately predicted. The conflict and related events could negatively impact the Fund's performance and the value of an investment in the Fund, even if the Fund does not invest in issuers in countries affected by the invasion.
Past Performance
The following total return information provides some indication of the risks of investing in the Fund by showing the changes in the Fund’s performance from year to year and by showing how the Fund’s average annual returns for 1, 5, and 10 years compared to the Standard & Poor's 500 Index ("S&P 500 Index"), a broad based measure of market performance and the Standard & Poor's United States REIT Index ("S&P U.S. REIT Index").

PAYMENTS TO BROKER-DEALERS AND OTHER FINANCIAL INTERMEDIARIES
If you purchase Fund shares through a broker-dealer or other financial intermediary, the Fund’s investment adviser may pay the intermediary periodic maintenance fees for establishing and maintaining accounts through which Fund shares are held. These payments may create a conflict of interest by influencing the broker-dealer or other intermediary or their personnel to recommend the Fund over another investment.
