Strategy. The Fund seeks to provide investors with a stream of income through dividends and interest; and total return through capital appreciation, together, with lower volatility than the overall stock market. To achieve this goal, the Funds Advisor employs a comprehensive approach incorporating screening, macroeconomic analysis, fundamental analysis and technical analysis. Securities that the Fund invests in may include (but are not limited to) stocks, preferred stocks, master limited partnerships (MLPs), convertible preferred stock, convertible bonds, real estate investment trusts (REITs), and bonds (including high-yield securities, commonly called junk bonds). The Fund may hold significantly higher than normal short-term cash positions during rebalancing or when market conditions warrant. The Fund invests without restriction as to issuer capitalization, maturity, credit quality or … The Fund seeks to provide investors with a stream of income through dividends and interest; and total return through capital appreciation, together, with lower volatility than the overall stock market. To achieve this goal, the Funds Advisor employs a comprehensive approach incorporating screening, macroeconomic analysis, fundamental analysis and technical analysis. Securities that the Fund invests in may include (but are not limited to) stocks, preferred stocks, master limited partnerships (MLPs), convertible preferred stock, convertible bonds, real estate investment trusts (REITs), and bonds (including high-yield securities, commonly called junk bonds). The Fund may hold significantly higher than normal short-term cash positions during rebalancing or when market conditions warrant. The Fund invests without restriction as to issuer capitalization, maturity, credit quality or whether the security is foreign or domestic. Foreign bonds may include both domestic and sovereign bonds. Additionally, the Fund may invest in the shares of investment companies that are exchange-traded funds (ETFs) that invest in securities that are consistent with the Funds investment objective and policies. These ETFs include those with inverse market exposure and leveraged ETFs. Inverse ETFs are designed to produce results opposite to market direction, which may serve to hedge portfolio investments. Inverse ETFs seek daily investment results, before fees and expenses, which correspond to the inverse (opposite) of the daily performance of a specific benchmark, such as the S&P 500 Index. The Advisor does not rebalance inverse ETFs positions daily to adjust for daily changes in the reference index. Leveraged ETFs seek to use financial derivatives and debt to amplify the returns of an underlying index. The Funds distribution policy is to make twelve monthly distributions to shareholders. The level of monthly distributions (including any return of capital) is not fixed but is expected to represent an annual rate of approximately 9% of the Funds then current net asset value per share. This distribution policy is subject to change. Shareholders receiving periodic payments from the Fund may be under the impression that they are receiving net profits. All or a portion of a distribution may consist of a return of capital, which would be a return of original shareholder investments in the Fund and not an income or capital gains distribution.
