If these sales charges (loads) were included, your costs would be higher. Portfolio Turnover The Fund pays transaction costs, such as commissions, when it buys and sells securities (or "turns over" its portfolio). A higher portfolio turnover may indicate higher transaction costs. 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 __% of the average value of its whole portfolio. Instructions. A.3.instructions.6 New Funds.

These companies are called micro-cap companies.The Mighty Mitessm Fund focuses on micro-cap companies which appear to be underpriced relative to their “private market value.” Private market value is the value which Teton Advisors, Inc. (the “Adviser”) believes informed investors would be willing to pay to acquire a company. The Adviser has disciplines in place that serve as sell signals such as a security reaching a predetermined price target, a change to a company’s fundamentals that make the risk/reward profile unattractive, or a need to improve the overall risk/reward profile of the Fund.Micro-cap companies may also be new or unseasoned companies which are in their very early stages of development. Micro-cap companies can also be engaged in new and emerging industries.Micro-cap companies are generally not well-known to investors and have less of an investor following than larger companies. The Adviser will attempt to capitalize on the lack of analyst attention to micro-cap stocks and the inefficiency of the micro-cap market.The Mighty Mitessm Fund may also invest up to 25% of its total assets in foreign equity securities and in European Depositary Receipts (“EDRs”) or American Depositary Receipts (“ADRs”).

Your investment in the Mighty Mitessm Fund is not guaranteed and you could lose some or all of the amount you invested in the Mighty Mitessm Fund.Investing in the Mighty Mitessm Fund involves the following risks:• Fund and Management Risk.  If the Mighty Mitessm Fund’s Adviser’s judgment in selecting securities is incorrect or if the market segment in which the Mighty Mitessm Fund invests falls out of favor with investors, the Mighty Mitessm Fund could underperform the stock market or its peers. The Mighty Mitessm Fund could also fail to meet its investment objective. When you sell Mighty Mitessm Fund shares, they may be worth less than what you paid for them.• Equity Risk.  The principal risk of investing in the Mighty Mitessm Fund is equity risk. Equity risk is the risk that the prices of the securities held by the Mighty Mitessm Fund will fall due to general market and economic conditions, perceptions regarding the industries in which the companies issuing the securities participate, and the issuer company’s particular circumstances.• Foreign Securities Risk.  Foreign securities pose additional risks over U.S. based securities for a number of reasons. Foreign economic, governmental, and political systems may be less favorable than those of the U.S. Foreign governments may exercise greater control over their economies, industries, and citizens’ rights. Specific risk factors related to foreign securities include: inflation, structure and regulation of financial markets, liquidity and volatility of investments, currency exchange rates and regulations, and differing accounting standards. Foreign companies may also be subject to significantly higher levels of taxation than U.S. companies, including potentially confiscatory levels of taxation, thereby reducing their earnings potential, and amounts realized on foreign securities may be subject to high levels of foreign taxation for which no U.S. federal income tax deductions or credits will be available to shareholders.Foreign securities may be denominated in foreign currencies. Therefore, the value of the Mighty Mitessm Fund’s assets and income in U.S. dollars may be affected by changes in exchange rates and regulations, since exchange rates for foreign currencies change daily. The combination of currency risk and market risk tends to make securities traded in foreign markets more volatile than securities traded exclusively in the U.S. Although the Mighty Mitessm Fund values its assets daily in U.S. dollars, it will not convert its holdings of foreign currencies to U.S. dollars daily. Therefore, the Mighty Mitessm Fund may be exposed to currency risks over an extended period of time.• Small- and Micro-Cap Company Risk.  Although small-cap and micro-cap companies may offer greater potential for capital appreciation than larger companies, investing in securities of small-cap and micro-cap companies may involve greater risks than investing in larger, more established issuers. Small-cap and micro-cap companies generally have limited product lines, markets, and financial resources. Their securities may trade less frequently and in more limited volume than the securities of larger, more established companies. Also, small-cap and micro-cap companies are typically subject to greater changes in earnings and business prospects than larger companies. Consequently, small-cap and micro-cap company stock prices tend to rise and fall in value more than other stocks. The risks of investing in micro-cap stocks and companies are even greater than those of investing in small-cap companies.falsefalsefalsefalsefalseOtherus-types:textBlockItemTypestringNarrative Risk Disclosure.

These companies are called micro-cap companies.The Mighty Mitessm Fund focuses on micro-cap companies which appear to be underpriced relative to their “private market value.” Private market value is the value which Teton Advisors, Inc. (the “Adviser”) believes informed investors would be willing to pay to acquire a company. The Adviser has disciplines in place that serve as sell signals such as a security approaching its private market value or a change to a company’s fundamentals that make the risk/reward profile unattractive.Micro-cap companies may also be new or unseasoned companies which are in their very early stages of development. Micro-cap companies can also be engaged in new and emerging industries.Micro-cap companies are generally not well-known to investors and have less of an investor following than larger companies. The Adviser will attempt to capitalize on the lack of analyst attention to micro-cap stocks and the inefficiency of the micro-cap market.The Mighty Mitessm Fund may also invest up to 25% of its total assets in foreign securities and in European Depositary Receipts (“EDRs”) or American Depositary Receipts (“ADRs”).

Your investment in the Mighty Mitessm Fund is not guaranteed and you could lose some or all of the amount you invested in the Mighty Mitessm Fund.Investing in the Mighty Mitessm Fund involves the following risks:• Fund and Management Risk.  If the Mighty Mitessm Fund’s Adviser’s judgment in selecting securities is incorrect or if the market segment in which the Mighty Mitessm Fund invests falls out of favor with investors, the Mighty Mitessm Fund could underperform the stock market or its peers. The Mighty Mitessm Fund could also fail to meet its investment objective. When you sell Mighty Mitessm Fund shares, they may be worth less than what you paid for them.• Equity Risk.  The principal risk of investing in the Mighty Mitessm Fund is equity risk. Equity risk is the risk that the prices of the securities held by the Mighty Mitessm Fund will fall due to general market and economic conditions, perceptions regarding the industries in which the companies issuing the securities participate, and the issuer company’s particular circumstances.• Foreign Securities Risk.  Foreign securities pose additional risks over U.S. based securities for a number of reasons. Foreign economic, governmental, and political systems may be less favorable than those of the U.S. Foreign governments may exercise greater control over their economies, industries, and citizens’ rights. Specific risk factors related to foreign securities include: inflation, structure and regulation of financial markets, liquidity and volatility of investments, currency exchange rates and regulations, and differing accounting standards. Foreign companies may also be subject to significantly higher levels of taxation than U.S. companies, including potentially confiscatory levels of taxation, thereby reducing their earnings potential, and amounts realized on foreign securities may be subject to high levels of foreign taxation for which no U.S. federal income tax deductions or credits will be available to shareholders.Foreign securities may be denominated in foreign currencies. Therefore, the value of the Mighty Mitessm Fund’s assets and income in U.S. dollars may be affected by changes in exchange rates and regulations, since exchange rates for foreign currencies change daily. The combination of currency risk and market risk tends to make securities traded in foreign markets more volatile than securities traded exclusively in the U.S. Although the Mighty Mitessm Fund values its assets daily in U.S. dollars, it will not convert its holdings of foreign currencies to U.S. dollars daily. Therefore, the Mighty Mitessm Fund may be exposed to currency risks over an extended period of time.• Small- and Micro-Cap Company Risk.  Although small-cap and micro-cap companies may offer greater potential for capital appreciation than larger companies, investing in securities of small-cap and micro-cap companies may involve greater risks than investing in larger, more established issuers. Small-cap and micro-cap companies generally have limited product lines, markets, and financial resources. Their securities may trade less frequently and in more limited volume than the securities of larger, more established companies. Also, small-cap and micro-cap companies are typically subject to greater changes in earnings and business prospects than larger companies. Consequently, small-cap and micro-cap company stock prices tend to rise and fall in value more than other stocks. The risks of investing in micro-cap stocks and companies are even greater than those of investing in small-cap companies.falsefalsefalsefalsefalseOtherus-types:textBlockItemTypestringNarrative Risk Disclosure.

If the Fund has changed its fiscal year and, as a result, the most recent fiscal year is less than three months, use the fiscal year prior to the most recent fiscal year as the basis for determining "Annual Fund Operating Expenses."Reference 1: 1 -Publisher SEC -Name Form -Number N-1A -Chapter A -Section 3 -Paragraph 3 -Subparagraph d -Subsection instructions truefalseTotal Annual Fund Operating Expenses168true0rr_ExpenseExampleAbstractrrfalsenadurationNo definition available.falsefalsefalsefalsefalsefalsefalsefalsefalsefalse1falsefalsefalse00falsefalsefalsefalsefalseOtherxbrli:stringItemTypestringNo definition available.falsefalseExpense Example:169false0rr_ExpenseExampleYear01rrfalsenadurationNo definition available.falsefalsefalsefalsefalsefalsefalsefalsefalsefalseverboselabel1truefalsetrue578578falsefalsefalsefalsefalseMonetaryrr:NonNegativeMonetaryTypemonetaryThe Example assumes that you invest $10,000 in the Fund for the time periods indicated and then you redeem all of your shares at the end of those periods.

Your investment in the SmallCap Equity Fund is not guaranteed and you could lose some or all of the amount you invested in the SmallCap Equity Fund.Investing in the SmallCap Equity Fund involves the following risks:• Fund and Management Risk.  If the SmallCap Equity Fund’s Adviser’s judgment in selecting securities is incorrect or if the market segment in which the SmallCap Equity Fund invests falls out of favor with investors, the SmallCap Equity Fund could underperform the stock market or its peers. The SmallCap Equity Fund could also fail to meet its investment objective. When you sell SmallCap Equity Fund shares, they may be worth less than what you paid for them.• Equity Risk.  The principal risk of investing in the SmallCap Equity Fund is equity risk. Equity risk is the risk that the prices of the securities held by the SmallCap Equity Fund will fall due to general market and economic conditions, perceptions regarding the industries in which the companies issuing the securities participate, and the issuer company’s particular circumstances.• Foreign Securities Risk.  Foreign securities pose additional risks over U.S. based securities for a number of reasons. Foreign economic, governmental, and political systems may be less favorable than those of the U.S. Foreign governments may exercise greater control over their economies, industries, and citizens’ rights. Specific risk factors related to foreign securities include: inflation, structure and regulation of financial markets, liquidity and volatility of investments, currency exchange rates and regulations, and differing accounting standards. Foreign companies may also be subject to significantly higher levels of taxation than U.S. companies, including potentially confiscatory levels of taxation, thereby reducing their earnings potential, and amounts realized on foreign securities may be subject to high levels of foreign taxation for which no U.S. federal income tax deductions or credits will be available to shareholders.Foreign securities may be denominated in foreign currencies. Therefore, the value of the SmallCap Equity Fund’s assets and income in U.S. dollars may be affected by changes in exchange rates and regulations, since exchange rates for foreign currencies change daily. The combination of currency risk and market risk tends to make securities traded in foreign markets more volatile than securities traded exclusively in the U.S. Although the SmallCap Equity Fund values its assets daily in U.S. dollars, it will not convert its holdings of foreign currencies to U.S. dollars daily. Therefore, the SmallCap Equity Fund may be exposed to currency risks over an extended period of time. • Small- and Micro-Cap Company Risk. Although small-cap and micro-cap companies may offer greater potential for capital appreciation than larger companies, investing in securities of small-cap and micro-cap companies may involve greater risks than investing in larger, more established issuers. Small-cap and micro-cap companies generally have limited product lines, markets, and financial resources. Their securities may trade less frequently and in more limited volume than the securities of larger, more established companies. Also, small-cap and micro-cap companies are typically subject to greater changes in earnings and business prospects than larger companies. Consequently, small-cap and micro-cap company stock prices tend to rise and fall in value more than other stocks. The risks of investing in micro-cap stocks and companies are even greater than those of investing in small-cap companies.falsefalsefalsefalsefalseOtherus-types:textBlockItemTypestringNarrative Risk Disclosure.

A higher portfolio turnover may indicate higher transaction costs. 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 __% of the average value of its whole portfolio. Instructions. A.3.instructions.6 New Funds.

Your investment in the SmallCap Equity Fund is not guaranteed and you could lose some or all of the amount you invested in the SmallCap Equity Fund.Investing in the SmallCap Equity Fund involves the following risks:• Fund and Management Risk.  If the SmallCap Equity Fund’s Adviser’s judgment in selecting securities is incorrect or if the market segment in which the SmallCap Equity Fund invests falls out of favor with investors, the SmallCap Equity Fund could underperform the stock market or its peers. The SmallCap Equity Fund could also fail to meet its investment objective. When you sell SmallCap Equity Fund shares, they may be worth less than what you paid for them.• Equity Risk.  The principal risk of investing in the SmallCap Equity Fund is equity risk. Equity risk is the risk that the prices of the securities held by the SmallCap Equity Fund will fall due to general market and economic conditions, perceptions regarding the industries in which the companies issuing the securities participate, and the issuer company’s particular circumstances.• Foreign Securities Risk.  Foreign securities pose additional risks over U.S. based securities for a number of reasons. Foreign economic, governmental, and political systems may be less favorable than those of the U.S. Foreign governments may exercise greater control over their economies, industries, and citizens’ rights. Specific risk factors related to foreign securities include: inflation, structure and regulation of financial markets, liquidity and volatility of investments, currency exchange rates and regulations, and differing accounting standards. Foreign companies may also be subject to significantly higher levels of taxation than U.S. companies, including potentially confiscatory levels of taxation, thereby reducing their earnings potential, and amounts realized on foreign securities may be subject to high levels of foreign taxation for which no U.S. federal income tax deductions or credits will be available to shareholders.Foreign securities may be denominated in foreign currencies. Therefore, the value of the SmallCap Equity Fund’s assets and income in U.S. dollars may be affected by changes in exchange rates and regulations, since exchange rates for foreign currencies change daily. The combination of currency risk and market risk tends to make securities traded in foreign markets more volatile than securities traded exclusively in the U.S. Although the SmallCap Equity Fund values its assets daily in U.S. dollars, it will not convert its holdings of foreign currencies to U.S. dollars daily. Therefore, the SmallCap Equity Fund may be exposed to currency risks over an extended period of time.• Small- and Micro-Cap Company Risk.  Although small-cap and micro-cap companies may offer greater potential for capital appreciation than larger companies, investing in securities of small-cap and micro-cap companies may involve greater risks than investing in larger, more established issuers. Small-cap and micro-cap companies generally have limited product lines, markets, and financial resources. Their securities may trade less frequently and in more limited volume than the securities of larger, more established companies. Also, small-cap and micro-cap companies are typically subject to greater changes in earnings and business prospects than larger companies. Consequently, small-cap and micro-cap company stock prices tend to rise and fall in value more than other stocks. The risks of investing in micro-cap stocks and companies are even greater than those of investing in small-cap companies.falsefalsefalsefalsefalseOtherus-types:textBlockItemTypestringNarrative Risk Disclosure.

Your investment in the Income Fund is not guaranteed and you could lose some or all of the amount you invested in the Income Fund.Investing in the Income Fund involves the following risks:• Fund and Management Risk.  If the Income Fund’s Adviser’s judgment in selecting securities is incorrect or if the market segment in which the Income Fund invests falls out of favor with investors, the Income Fund could underperform the stock market or its peers. The Income Fund could also fail to meet its investment objective. When you sell Income Fund shares, they may be worth less than what you paid for them.• Foreign Securities Risk.  Foreign securities pose additional risks over U.S. based securities for a number of reasons. Foreign economic, governmental, and political systems may be less favorable than those of the U.S. Foreign governments may exercise greater control over their economies, industries, and citizens’ rights. Specific risk factors related to foreign securities include: inflation, structure and regulation of financial markets, liquidity and volatility of investments, currency exchange rates and regulations, and differing accounting standards. Foreign companies may also be subject to significantly higher levels of taxation than U.S. companies, including potentially confiscatory levels of taxation, thereby reducing their earnings potential, and amounts realized on foreign securities may be subject to high levels of foreign taxation for which no U.S. federal income tax deductions or credits will be available to shareholders.Foreign securities may be denominated in foreign currencies. Therefore, the value of the Income Fund’s assets and income in U.S. dollars may be affected by changes in exchange rates and regulations, since exchange rates for foreign currencies change daily. The combination of currency risk and market risk tends to make securities traded in foreign markets more volatile than securities traded exclusively in the U.S. Although the Income Fund values its assets daily in U.S. dollars, it will not convert its holdings of foreign currencies to U.S. dollars daily. Therefore, the Income Fund may be exposed to currency risks over an extended period of time.• Interest Rate Risk, Maturity Risk, and Credit Risk.  When interest rates decline, the value of the portfolio’s debt securities generally rises. Conversely, when interest rates rise, the value of the portfolio’s debt securities generally declines. The magnitude of the decline will often be greater for longer-term debt securities than shorter-term debt securities. It is also possible that the issuer of a security will not be able to make interest and principal payments when due.falsefalsefalsefalsefalseOtherus-types:textBlockItemTypestringNarrative Risk Disclosure.

Portfolio Turnover The Fund pays transaction costs, such as commissions, when it buys and sells securities (or "turns over" its portfolio). A higher portfolio turnover may indicate higher transaction costs. 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 __% of the average value of its whole portfolio. Instructions. A.3.instructions.6 New Funds.

Your investment in the Income Fund is not guaranteed and you could lose some or all of the amount you invested in the Income Fund.Investing in the Income Fund involves the following risks:• Fund and Management Risk.  If the Income Fund’s Adviser’s judgment in selecting securities is incorrect or if the market segment in which the Income Fund invests falls out of favor with investors, the Income Fund could underperform the stock market or its peers. The Income Fund could also fail to meet its investment objective. When you sell Income Fund shares, they may be worth less than what you paid for them.• Foreign Securities Risk.  Foreign securities pose additional risks over U.S. based securities for a number of reasons. Foreign economic, governmental, and political systems may be less favorable than those of the U.S. Foreign governments may exercise greater control over their economies, industries, and citizens’ rights. Specific risk factors related to foreign securities include: inflation, structure and regulation of financial markets, liquidity and volatility of investments, currency exchange rates and regulations, and differing accounting standards. Foreign companies may also be subject to significantly higher levels of taxation than U.S. companies, including potentially confiscatory levels of taxation, thereby reducing their earnings potential, and amounts realized on foreign securities may be subject to high levels of foreign taxation for which no U.S. federal income tax deductions or credits will be available to shareholders.Foreign securities may be denominated in foreign currencies. Therefore, the value of the Income Fund’s assets and income in U.S. dollars may be affected by changes in exchange rates and regulations, since exchange rates for foreign currencies change daily. The combination of currency risk and market risk tends to make securities traded in foreign markets more volatile than securities traded exclusively in the U.S. Although the Income Fund values its assets daily in U.S. dollars, it will not convert its holdings of foreign currencies to U.S. dollars daily. Therefore, the Income Fund may be exposed to currency risks over an extended period of time.• Interest Rate Risk, Maturity Risk, and Credit Risk.  When interest rates decline, the value of the portfolio’s debt securities generally rises. Conversely, when interest rates rise, the value of the portfolio’s debt securities generally declines. The magnitude of the decline will often be greater for longer-term debt securities than shorter-term debt securities. It is also possible that the issuer of a security will not be able to make interest and principal payments when due.falsefalsefalsefalsefalseOtherus-types:textBlockItemTypestringNarrative Risk Disclosure.

If the Fund provides this disclosure, also disclose the period for which the expense reimbursement or fee waiver arrangement is expected to continue, and briefly describe who can terminate the arrangement and under what circumstances.Reference 1: 1 -Publisher SEC -Name Form -Number N-1A -Chapter A -Section 3 -Paragraph 1 -Subparagraph 11 -Subsection table falsefalseLess Fee Waiver and Expense Reimbursement1090false0rr_NetExpensesOverAssetsrrfalsenadurationNo definition available.falsefalsefalsefalsefalsefalsefalsefalsefalsefalseverboselabel1truetruetrue0.02750.0275[7]falsefalsefalsefalsefalseOtherrr:NonNegativePure4TypepureTotal Annual Fund Operating Expenses.Reference 1: 1 -Publisher SEC -Name Form -Number N-1A -Chapter A -Section 3 -Paragraph 1 -Subparagraph 11 -Subsection table falsefalseTotal Annual Fund Operating Expenses After Fee Waiver and Expense Reimbursement1091true0rr_ExpenseExampleAbstractrrfalsenadurationNo definition available.falsefalsefalsefalsefalsefalsefalsefalsefalsefalse1falsefalsefalse00falsefalsefalsefalsefalseOtherxbrli:stringItemTypestringNo definition available.falsefalseExpense Example:1092false0rr_ExpenseExampleByYearColumnNamerrfalsenadurationNo definition available.falsefalsefalsefalsefalsefalsefalsefalsefalsefalse1falsefalsefalse00Class C SharesfalsefalsefalsefalsefalseOtherus-types:textBlockItemTypestringThe Example assumes that you invest $10,000 in the Fund for the time periods indicated and then you redeem all of your shares at the end of those periods.

The Equity Fund invests in a portfolio of seasoned companies. Seasoned companies generally have market capitalizations of $1 billion or more and have been operating for at least three years.In selecting securities, Westwood Management Corporation, the Equity Fund’s sub-adviser (the “Sub-Adviser”), maintains a list of securities of issuers which it believes have proven records and potential for above-average earnings growth. It considers purchasing a security on such list if the Sub-Adviser’s forecast for growth rates and earnings exceeds Wall Street expectations. The Sub-Adviser closely monitors the issuers and will sell a stock if the Sub-Adviser expects limited future price appreciation, there is a fundamental change that negatively impacts their growth assumptions, and/or the price of the stocks declines 15% in the first 45 days held. The Equity Fund’s risk characteristics, such as beta (a measure of volatility), are generally expected to be less than those of the Standard & Poor’s 500 Index (the “S&P 500 Index”), the Equity Fund’s benchmark.The Equity Fund may also invest up to 25% of its total assets in foreign equity securities and in EDRs or ADRs.

Your investment in the Equity Fund is not guaranteed and you could lose some or all of the amount you invested in the Equity Fund.Investing in the Equity Fund involves the following risks:• Fund and Management Risk.  If the Equity Fund’s Sub-Adviser’s judgment in selecting securities is incorrect or if the market segment in which the Equity Fund invests falls out of favor with investors, the Equity Fund could underperform the stock market or its peers. The Equity Fund could also fail to meet its investment objectives. When you sell Equity Fund shares, they may be worth less than what you paid for them.• Equity Risk.  The principal risk of investing in the Equity Fund is equity risk. Equity risk is the risk that the prices of the securities held by the Equity Fund will fall due to general market and economic conditions, perceptions regarding the industries in which the companies issuing the securities participate, and the issuer company’s particular circumstances.• Foreign Securities Risk.  Foreign securities pose additional risks over U.S. based securities for a number of reasons. Foreign economic, governmental, and political systems may be less favorable than those of the U.S. Foreign governments may exercise greater control over their economies, industries, and citizens’ rights. Specific risk factors related to foreign securities include: inflation, structure and regulation of financial markets, liquidity and volatility of investments, currency exchange rates and regulations, and differing accounting standards. Foreign companies may also be subject to significantly higher levels of taxation than U.S. companies, including potentially confiscatory levels of taxation, thereby reducing their earnings potential, and amounts realized on foreign securities may be subject to high levels of foreign taxation for which no U.S. federal income tax deductions or credits will be available to shareholders.Foreign securities may be denominated in foreign currencies. Therefore, the value of the Equity Fund’s assets and income in U.S. dollars may be affected by changes in exchange rates and regulations, since exchange rates for foreign currencies change daily. The combination of currency risk and market risk tends to make securities traded in foreign markets more volatile than securities traded exclusively in the U.S. Although the Equity Fund values its assets daily in U.S. dollars, it will not convert its holdings of foreign currencies to U.S. dollars daily. Therefore, the Equity Fund may be exposed to currency risks over an extended period of time.falsefalsefalsefalsefalseOtherus-types:textBlockItemTypestringNarrative Risk Disclosure.

The Equity Fund invests in a portfolio of seasoned companies. Seasoned companies generally have market capitalizations of $1 billion or more and have been operating for at least three years.In selecting securities, Westwood Management Corporation, the Equity Fund’s sub-adviser (the “Sub-Adviser”), maintains a list of securities of issuers which it believes have proven records and potential for above-average earnings growth. It considers purchasing a security on such list if the Sub-Adviser’s forecast for growth rates and earnings exceeds Wall Street expectations.

Your investment in the Equity Fund is not guaranteed and you could lose some or all of the amount you invested in the Equity Fund.Investing in the Equity Fund involves the following risks:• Fund and Management Risk.  If the Equity Fund’s Sub-Adviser’s judgment in selecting securities is incorrect or if the market segment in which the Equity Fund invests falls out of favor with investors, the Equity Fund could underperform the stock market or its peers. The Equity Fund could also fail to meet its investment objectives. When you sell Equity Fund shares, they may be worth less than what you paid for them.• Equity Risk.  The principal risk of investing in the Equity Fund is equity risk. Equity risk is the risk that the prices of the securities held by the Equity Fund will fall due to general market and economic conditions, perceptions regarding the industries in which the companies issuing the securities participate, and the issuer company’s particular circumstances.• Foreign Securities Risk.  Foreign securities pose additional risks over U.S. based securities for a number of reasons. Foreign economic, governmental, and political systems may be less favorable than those of the U.S. Foreign governments may exercise greater control over their economies, industries, and citizens’ rights. Specific risk factors related to foreign securities include: inflation, structure and regulation of financial markets, liquidity and volatility of investments, currency exchange rates and regulations, and differing accounting standards. Foreign companies may also be subject to significantly higher levels of taxation than U.S. companies, including potentially confiscatory levels of taxation, thereby reducing their earnings potential, and amounts realized on foreign securities may be subject to high levels of foreign taxation for which no U.S. federal income tax deductions or credits will be available to shareholders.Foreign securities may be denominated in foreign currencies. Therefore, the value of the Equity Fund’s assets and income in U.S. dollars may be affected by changes in exchange rates and regulations, since exchange rates for foreign currencies change daily. The combination of currency risk and market risk tends to make securities traded in foreign markets more volatile than securities traded exclusively in the U.S. Although the Equity Fund values its assets daily in U.S. dollars, it will not convert its holdings of foreign currencies to U.S. dollars daily. Therefore, the Equity Fund may be exposed to currency risks over an extended period of time.falsefalsefalsefalsefalseOtherus-types:textBlockItemTypestringNarrative Risk Disclosure.

Portfolio Turnover The Fund pays transaction costs, such as commissions, when it buys and sells securities (or "turns over" its portfolio). A higher portfolio turnover may indicate higher transaction costs. 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 __% of the average value of its whole portfolio. Instructions. A.3.instructions.6 New Funds.

The Balanced Fund is primarily equity-oriented, and uses a top-down approach in seeking to provide equity-like returns but with lower volatility than a fully invested equity portfolio. The Sub-Adviser will typically invest 30% to 70% of the Balanced Fund’s assets in equity securities and 70% to 30% in debt securities, and the balance of the Balanced Fund’s assets in cash or cash equivalents. The actual mix of assets will vary depending on the Sub-Adviser’s analysis of market and economic conditions. The Balanced Fund invests in stocks of seasoned companies. Seasoned companies generally have market capitalizations of $1 billion or more and have been operating for at least three years. The Sub-Adviser chooses stocks of seasoned companies with proven records and above-average earnings growth potential. The Sub-Adviser has disciplines in place that serve as sell signals such as a security reaching a predetermined price target, a change to a company’s fundamentals that make the risk/reward profile unattractive, or a need to improve the overall risk/reward profile of the Balanced Fund. The debt securities held by the Balanced Fund are investment grade securities of corporate and government issuers and commercial paper and mortgage- and asset-backed securities. Investment grade debt securities are securities rated in one of the four highest ratings categories by a Nationally Recognized Statistical Rating Organization (“NRSRO”). There are no restrictions on the maximum or minimum maturity of any individual security that the Balanced Fund may invest in. The Balanced Fund may also invest up to 25% of its total assets in foreign equity securities and in EDRs or ADRs.

The Balanced Fund’s share price will fluctuate with changes in the market value of the Balanced Fund’s portfolio securities. Your investment in the Balanced Fund is not guaranteed and you could lose some or all of the amount you invested in the Balanced Fund. Investing in the Balanced Fund involves the following risks:• Fund and Management Risk. If the Balanced Fund’s Sub-Adviser’s judgment in selecting securities is incorrect or if the market segment in which the Balanced Fund invests falls out of favor with investors, the Balanced Fund could underperform the stock market or its peers. The Balanced Fund could also fail to meet its investment objective. When you sell Balanced Fund shares, they may be worth less than what you paid for them.• Equity Risk. The principal risk of investing in the Balanced Fund is equity risk. Equity risk is the risk that the prices of the securities held by the Balanced Fund will fall due to general market and economic conditions, perceptions regarding the industries in which the companies issuing the securities participate, and the issuer company’s particular circumstances.• Foreign Securities Risk. Foreign securities pose additional risks over U.S. based securities for a number of reasons. Foreign economic, governmental, and political systems may be less favorable than those of the U.S. Foreign governments may exercise greater control over their economies, industries, and citizens’ rights. Specific risk factors related to foreign securities include: inflation, structure and regulation of financial markets, liquidity and volatility of investments, currency exchange rates and regulations, and differing accounting standards. Foreign companies may also be subject to significantly higher levels of taxation than U.S. companies, including potentially confiscatory levels of taxation, thereby reducing their earnings potential, and amounts realized on foreign securities may be subject to high levels of foreign taxation for which no U.S. federal income tax deductions or credits will be available to shareholders.Foreign securities may be denominated in foreign currencies. Therefore, the value of the Balanced Fund’s assets and income in U.S. dollars may be affected by changes in exchange rates and regulations, since exchange rates for foreign currencies change daily. The combination of currency risk and market risk tends to make securities traded in foreign markets more volatile than securities traded exclusively in the U.S. Although the Balanced Fund values its assets daily in U.S. dollars, it will not convert its holdings of foreign currencies to U.S. dollars daily. Therefore, the Balanced Fund may be exposed to currency risks over an extended period of time.• Interest Rate Risk, Maturity Risk, and Credit Risk. When interest rates decline, the value of the portfolio’s debt securities generally rises. Conversely, when interest rates rise, the value of the portfolio’s debt securities generally declines. The magnitude of the decline will often be greater for longer-term debt securities than shorter-term debt securities. It is also possible that the issuer of a security will not be able to make interest and principal payments when due.• Pre-Payment Risk. The Balanced Fund may experience losses when an issuer exercises its right to pay principal on an obligation held by the Balanced Fund (such as a mortgage-backed security) earlier than expected. This may happen during a period of declining interest rates. Under these circumstances, the Balanced Fund may be unable to recoup all of its initial investment and will suffer from having to invest in lower yielding securities. The loss of higher yielding securities and the reinvestment at lower interest rates can reduce the Balanced Fund’s income, total return, and share price.falsefalsefalsefalsefalseOtherus-types:textBlockItemTypestringNarrative Risk Disclosure.

The Balanced Fund is primarily equity-oriented, and uses a top-down approach in seeking to provide equity-like returns but with lower volatility than a fully invested equity portfolio. The Sub-Adviser will typically invest 30% to 70% of the Balanced Fund’s assets in equity securities and 70% to 30% in debt securities, and the balance of the Balanced Fund’s assets in cash or cash equivalents. The actual mix of assets will vary depending on the Sub-Adviser’s analysis of market and economic conditions. The Balanced Fund invests in stocks of seasoned companies. Seasoned companies generally have market capitalizations of $1 billion or more and have been operating for at least three years. The Sub-Adviser chooses stocks of seasoned companies with proven records and above-average earnings growth potential. The Sub-Adviser has disciplines in place that serve as sell signals such as a security reaching a predetermined price target, a change to a company’s fundamentals that make the risk/reward profile unattractive, or a need to improve the overall risk/reward profile of the Balanced Fund. The debt securities held by the Balanced Fund are investment grade securities of corporate and government issuers and commercial paper and mortgage- and asset-backed securities. Investment grade debt securities are securities rated in one of the four highest ratings categories by a Nationally Recognized Statistical Rating Organization (“NRSRO”). There are no restrictions on the maximum or minimum maturity of any individual security that the Balanced Fund may invest in. The Balanced Fund may also invest up to 25% of its total assets in foreign equity securities and in EDRs or ADRs.

The Balanced Fund’s share price will fluctuate with changes in the market value of the Balanced Fund’s portfolio securities. Your investment in the Balanced Fund is not guaranteed and you could lose some or all of the amount you invested in the Balanced Fund. Investing in the Balanced Fund involves the following risks:• Fund and Management Risk. If the Balanced Fund’s Sub-Adviser’s judgment in selecting securities is incorrect or if the market segment in which the Balanced Fund invests falls out of favor with investors, the Balanced Fund could underperform the stock market or its peers. The Balanced Fund could also fail to meet its investment objective. When you sell Balanced Fund shares, they may be worth less than what you paid for them.• Equity Risk. The principal risk of investing in the Balanced Fund is equity risk. Equity risk is the risk that the prices of the securities held by the Balanced Fund will fall due to general market and economic conditions, perceptions regarding the industries in which the companies issuing the securities participate, and the issuer company’s particular circumstances.• Foreign Securities Risk. Foreign securities pose additional risks over U.S. based securities for a number of reasons. Foreign economic, governmental, and political systems may be less favorable than those of the U.S. Foreign governments may exercise greater control over their economies, industries, and citizens’ rights. Specific risk factors related to foreign securities include: inflation, structure and regulation of financial markets, liquidity and volatility of investments, currency exchange rates and regulations, and differing accounting standards. Foreign companies may also be subject to significantly higher levels of taxation than U.S. companies, including potentially confiscatory levels of taxation, thereby reducing their earnings potential, and amounts realized on foreign securities may be subject to high levels of foreign taxation for which no U.S. federal income tax deductions or credits will be available to shareholders.Foreign securities may be denominated in foreign currencies. Therefore, the value of the Balanced Fund’s assets and income in U.S. dollars may be affected by changes in exchange rates and regulations, since exchange rates for foreign currencies change daily. The combination of currency risk and market risk tends to make securities traded in foreign markets more volatile than securities traded exclusively in the U.S. Although the Balanced Fund values its assets daily in U.S. dollars, it will not convert its holdings of foreign currencies to U.S. dollars daily. Therefore, the Balanced Fund may be exposed to currency risks over an extended period of time.• Interest Rate Risk, Maturity Risk, and Credit Risk. When interest rates decline, the value of the portfolio’s debt securities generally rises. Conversely, when interest rates rise, the value of the portfolio’s debt securities generally declines. The magnitude of the decline will often be greater for longer-term debt securities than shorter-term debt securities. It is also possible that the issuer of a security will not be able to make interest and principal payments when due.• Pre-Payment Risk. The Balanced Fund may experience losses when an issuer exercises its right to pay principal on an obligation held by the Balanced Fund (such as a mortgage-backed security) earlier than expected. This may happen during a period of declining interest rates. Under these circumstances, the Balanced Fund may be unable to recoup all of its initial investment and will suffer from having to invest in lower yielding securities. The loss of higher yielding securities and the reinvestment at lower interest rates can reduce the Balanced Fund’s income, total return, and share price.falsefalsefalsefalsefalseOtherus-types:textBlockItemTypestringNarrative Risk Disclosure.

The Intermediate Bond Fund may also invest in other types of investment grade debt securities, including debentures, notes, convertible debt securities, municipal securities, mortgage-related securities, and certain collateralized and asset-backed securities. The Intermediate Bond Fund will seek to maintain an average rating of AA or better by Standard & Poor’s Ratings Services, a division of McGraw-Hill Companies, (“Standard & Poor’s”), or comparable quality for the securities in its portfolio.In selecting securities for the Intermediate Bond Fund, the Sub-Adviser focuses both on the fundamentals of particular issuers and yield curve positioning. The Sub-Adviser seeks to earn risk-adjusted returns superior to those of the Barclays Capital Government/Corporate Bond Index over time. The Sub-Adviser invests 80% to 100% of the Fund’s assets in debt securities and the remainder in cash or cash equivalents. The Sub-Adviser has disciplines in place that serve as sell signals such as a change to a company’s fundamentals that make the risk/reward profile unattractive or a need to improve the overall risk/reward profile of the Fund.falsefalsefalsefalsefalseOtherus-types:textBlockItemTypestringPrincipal investment strategies of the Fund.

Your investment in the Intermediate Bond Fund is not guaranteed and you could lose some or all of the amount you invested in the Intermediate Bond Fund.Investing in the Intermediate Bond Fund involves the following risks:• Fund and Management Risk.  If the Intermediate Bond Fund’s Sub-Adviser’s judgment in selecting securities is incorrect or if the market segment in which the Intermediate Bond Fund invests falls out of favor with investors, the Intermediate Bond Fund could underperform the stock market or its peers. The Intermediate Bond Fund could also fail to meet its investment objective. When you sell Intermediate Bond Fund shares, they may be worth less than what you paid for them.• Interest Rate Risk, Maturity Risk, and Credit Risk.  When interest rates decline, the value of the portfolio’s debt securities generally rises. Conversely, when interest rates rise, the value of the portfolio’s debt securities generally declines. The magnitude of the decline will often be greater for longer-term debt securities than shorter-term debt securities. It is also possible that the issuer of a security will not be able to make interest and principal payments when due.• Pre-Payment Risk.  The Intermediate Bond Fund may experience losses when an issuer exercises its right to pay principal on an obligation held by the Intermediate Bond Fund (such as a mortgage-backed security) earlier than expected. This may happen during a period of declining interest rates. Under these circumstances, the Intermediate Bond Fund may be unable to recoup all of its initial investment and will suffer from having to invest in lower yielding securities. The loss of higher yielding securities and the reinvestment at lower interest rates can reduce the Intermediate Bond Fund’s income, total return, and share price.falsefalsefalsefalsefalseOtherus-types:textBlockItemTypestringNarrative Risk Disclosure.

If the Fund provides this disclosure, also disclose the period for which the expense reimbursement or fee waiver arrangement is expected to continue, and briefly describe who can terminate the arrangement and under what circumstances.Reference 1: 1 -Publisher SEC -Name Form -Number N-1A -Chapter A -Section 3 -Paragraph 1 -Subparagraph 11 -Subsection table falsefalseLess Fee Waiver and Expense Reimbursement2200false0rr_NetExpensesOverAssetsrrfalsenadurationNo definition available.falsefalsefalsefalsefalsefalsefalsefalsefalsefalseverboselabel1truetruetrue0.01020.0102[10]falsefalsefalsefalsefalseOtherrr:NonNegativePure4TypepureTotal Annual Fund Operating Expenses.Reference 1: 1 -Publisher SEC -Name Form -Number N-1A -Chapter A -Section 3 -Paragraph 1 -Subparagraph 11 -Subsection table falsefalseTotal Annual Fund Operating Expenses After Fee Waiver and Expense Reimbursement2201true0rr_ExpenseExampleAbstractrrfalsenadurationNo definition available.falsefalsefalsefalsefalsefalsefalsefalsefalsefalse1falsefalsefalse00falsefalsefalsefalsefalseOtherxbrli:stringItemTypestringNo definition available.falsefalseExpense Example:2202false0rr_ExpenseExampleYear01rrfalsenadurationNo definition available.falsefalsefalsefalsefalsefalsefalsefalsefalsefalseverboselabel1truefalsetrue104104falsefalsefalsefalsefalseMonetaryrr:NonNegativeMonetaryTypemonetaryThe Example assumes that you invest $10,000 in the Fund for the time periods indicated and then you redeem all of your shares at the end of those periods.

The Intermediate Bond Fund focuses on investment grade bonds of domestic corporations and governments. Investment grade debt securities are securities rated in the four highest ratings categories by a NRSRO.Although there are no restrictions on the maximum or minimum maturity of any individual security that the Intermediate Bond Fund may invest in, generally the Intermediate Bond Fund will have a dollar weighted average maturity of three to ten years. The Intermediate Bond Fund may also invest in other types of investment grade debt securities, including debentures, notes, convertible debt securities, municipal securities, mortgage-related securities, and certain collateralized and asset-backed securities. The Intermediate Bond Fund will seek to maintain an average rating of AA or better by Standard & Poor’s Ratings Services, a division of McGraw-Hill Companies, (“Standard & Poor’s”), or comparable quality for the securities in its portfolio.In selecting securities for the Intermediate Bond Fund, the Sub-Adviser focuses both on the fundamentals of particular issuers and yield curve positioning. The Sub-Adviser seeks to earn risk-adjusted returns superior to those of the Barclays Capital Government/Corporate Bond Index over time. The Sub-Adviser invests 80% to 100% of the Fund’s assets in debt securities and the remainder in cash or cash equivalents. The Sub-Adviser has disciplines in place that serve as sell signals such as a change to a company’s fundamentals that make the risk/reward profile unattractive, or a need to improve the overall risk/reward profile of the Fund.falsefalsefalsefalsefalseOtherus-types:textBlockItemTypestringPrincipal investment strategies of the Fund.

Your investment in the Intermediate Bond Fund is not guaranteed and you could lose some or all of the amount you invested in the Intermediate Bond Fund.Investing in the Intermediate Bond Fund involves the following risks:• Fund and Management Risk.  If the Intermediate Bond Fund’s Sub-Adviser’s judgment in selecting securities is incorrect or if the market segment in which the Intermediate Bond Fund invests falls out of favor with investors, the Intermediate Bond Fund could underperform the stock market or its peers. The Intermediate Bond Fund could also fail to meet its investment objective. When you sell Intermediate Bond Fund shares, they may be worth less than what you paid for them.• Interest Rate Risk, Maturity Risk, and Credit Risk.  When interest rates decline, the value of the portfolio’s debt securities generally rises. Conversely, when interest rates rise, the value of the portfolio’s debt securities generally declines. The magnitude of the decline will often be greater for longer-term debt securities than shorter-term debt securities. It is also possible that the issuer of a security will not be able to make interest and principal payments when due.• Pre-Payment Risk.  The Intermediate Bond Fund may experience losses when an issuer exercises its right to pay principal on an obligation held by the Intermediate Bond Fund (such as a mortgage-backed security) earlier than expected. This may happen during a period of declining interest rates. Under these circumstances, the Intermediate Bond Fund may be unable to recoup all of its initial investment and will suffer from having to invest in lower yielding securities. The loss of higher yielding securities and the reinvestment at lower interest rates can reduce the Intermediate Bond Fund’s income, total return, and share price.falsefalsefalsefalsefalseOtherus-types:textBlockItemTypestringNarrative Risk Disclosure.

For a Fund that provides annual total returns for only one calendar year or for a Fund that does not include the bar chart because it does not have annual returns for a full calendar year, modify, as appropriate, the narrative explanation required by paragraph (c)(2)(i) (e.g., by stating that the information gives some indication of the risks of an investment in the Fund by comparing the Fund's performance with a broad measure of market performance).Reference 1: 1 -Publisher SEC -Name Form -Number N-1A -Chapter A -Section 4 -Paragraph 2 -Subparagraph iv -Subsection b falsefalsePerformance Table Narrative2272false0rr_PerformanceTableUsesHighestFederalRaterrfalsenadurationNo definition available.falsefalsefalsefalsefalsefalsefalsefalsefalsefalse1falsefalsefalse00After-tax returns are calculated using the historical highest individual federal marginal income tax rates and do not reflect the impact of state and local taxes.falsefalsefalsefalsefalseOtherxbrli:stringItemTypestringProvide a brief explanation that after-tax returns are calculated using the historical highest individual federal marginal income tax rates and do not reflect the impact of state and local taxes.Reference 1: 1 -Publisher SEC -Name Form -Number N-1A -Chapter A -Section 4 -Paragraph 2 -Subparagraph iii -Subsection b falsefalsePerformance Table Uses Highest Federal Rate2273false0rr_PerformanceTableExplanationAfterTaxHigherrrfalsenadurationNo definition available.falsefalsefalsefalsefalsefalsefalsefalsefalsefalse1falsefalsefalse00In some instances, the “Return After Taxes on Distributions and Sale of Fund Shares” may be greater than “Return Before Taxes” because the investor is assumed to be able to use the capital loss from the sale of Fund shares to offset other taxable gains.falsefalsefalsefalsefalseOtherxbrli:stringItemTypestringIf average annual total return (after taxes on distributions and redemption) is higher than average annual total return, the reason for this result may be explained.Reference 1: 1 -Publisher SEC -Name Form -Number N-1A -Chapter A -Section 4 -Paragraph 2 -Subparagraph iv -Clause D -Subsection b falsefalsePerformance Table Explanation after Tax Higher2274false0rr_PerformanceTableNotRelevantToTaxDeferredrrfalsenadurationNo definition available.falsefalsefalsefalsefalsefalsefalsefalsefalsefalse1falsefalsefalse00Actual after-tax returns depend on the investor’s tax situation and may differ from those shown.

If there were expense reimbursement or fee waiver arrangements that reduced any Fund operating expenses and will continue to reduce them for no less than one year from the effective date of the Fund's registration statement, a Fund may add two captions to the table one caption showing the amount of the expense reimbursement or fee waiver, and a second caption showing the Fund's net expenses after subtracting the fee reimbursement or expense waiver from the total fund operating expenses. The Fund should place these additional captions directly below the "Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses" caption of the table and should use appropriate descriptive captions, such as "Fee Waiver [and/or Expense Reimbursement]" and "Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses After Fee Waiver [and/or Expense Reimbursement]," respectively.

For purposes of this Prospectus, we have included the Fund's old broad based benchmarks, its new broad based benchmark - the Lipper Equity Income Funds Average - and its current benchmark - the S&P 500 Index. Going forward, we will show the Fund's performance against the Lipper Equity Income Funds Average and the S&P 500 Index, rather than the 10 Year Treasury Notes Index and the Blended Index, as the Adviser believes the 10 Year Treasury Notes Index and the Blended Index are no longer appropriate broad based benchmarks. The Adviser believes the Lipper Equity Income Funds Average is a better broad based benchmark because the Lipper Equity Income Funds Average includes funds that invest at least 65% of their portfolio in dividend paying equity securities, which is more representative of the Fund's investment objective.14Effective January 31, 2011, the Fund is changing its broad based benchmark from 60% S&P 500 Index and 40% Barclays Capital Government/Corporate Bond Index to 60% S&P 500 Index and 40% Barclays Capital Government/Credit Bond Index.

The Adviser believes the Barclays Capital Government/Credit Bond Index is a better broad based benchmark because of the Index's small exposure to corporate bonds, which is more representative of the Fund's investment strategy. 15Effective January 31, 2011, the Fund is changing its broad based benchmark from the Barclays Capital Government/Corporate Bond Index to the Barclays Capital Government/Credit Bond Index.
