The fund generally invests in all of the stocks in the index in proportion to their weighting in the index; however, at times, the fund may invest in a representative sample of stocks included in the index and in futures whose performance is tied to the index. Under these circumstances, the fund expects to invest in approximately 500 or more of the stocks in the index. Because the fund has expenses, performance will tend to be slightly lower than that of the S&P SmallCap 600 Index. The fund attempts to have a correlation between its performance and that of the S&P SmallCap 600 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 S&P SmallCap 600 Index is an unmanaged index of the common stocks of 600 small-sized companies in the U.S. S&P weights each company's stock in the index by its market capitalization (i.e., the share price times the number of shares outstanding), adjusted by the number of available float shares (i.e., those shares available to public investors). As of February 2026, companies included in the S&P SmallCap 600 Index generally have market capitalizations ranging between approximately $1.2 billion and $8.0 billion. 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 SmallCap 600 Index, the fund may, from time to time, invest a significant portion of its assets in securities of companies in certain sectors.
