Strategy. To pursue its goal, the fund generally is fully invested in stocks included in the Morgan Stanley Capital International Europe, Australasia, Far East (MSCI EAFE ) Index and in futures whose performance is tied to certain countries included in the index. The fund generally invests in all stocks included in the index. The fund's investments are selected to match the benchmark composition along individual name, country and industry weighting, and other benchmark characteristics. Under these circumstances, the fund maintains approximately the same weighting for each stock as the index does. Because the fund has expenses, performance will tend to be slightly lower than that of the MSCI EAFE Index.

The fund generally invests in all stocks included in the index. The fund's investments are selected to match the benchmark composition along individual name, country and industry weighting, and other benchmark characteristics. Under these circumstances, the fund maintains approximately the same weighting for each stock as the index does. Because the fund has expenses, performance will tend to be slightly lower than that of the MSCI EAFE Index. The fund attempts to have a correlation between its performance and that of the MSCI EAFE Index of at least .95, before fees and expenses. A correlation of 1.00 would mean that the fund and the index were perfectly correlated. The fund will concentrate its investments (i.e., hold 25% or more of its total assets) in a particular industry or group of industries to approximately the same extent that the index is concentrated. In addition, to the extent the fund purchases securities comprising the MSCI EAFE Index, the fund may, from time to time, invest a significant portion of its assets in securities of companies in certain countries. The MSCI EAFE Index is an unmanaged, free float-adjusted, market capitalization weighted index that is designed to measure the performance of publicly-traded stocks issued by companies in developed markets, excluding the United States and Canada. Each stock in the index is weighted by its float-adjusted market capitalization.
