Investment objective & strategy

As of July 29, 2025 · prospectus

Objective. The Fund seeks to provide investment results that match, before fees and expenses, the performance of a specific benchmark on a daily basis. The Funds current benchmark is 200% of the performance of the Dow Jones Industrial Average (the underlying index). The Fund does not seek to achieve its investment objective over a period of time greater than one day.

Strategy. The Fund employs as its investment strategy a program of investing in the common stock of companies that are generally within the capitalization range of the underlying index and derivative instruments, which primarily consist of equity index swaps and swaps on exchange-traded funds, futures contracts, and options on securities, futures contracts, and stock indices. While the Fund may write (sell) and purchase swaps, it expects primarily to purchase swaps. Swap agreements and futures and options contracts, if used properly, may enable the Fund to meet its objective by increasing the Funds exposure to the securities included in the underlying index or in the same proportion that those securities are represented in the Fund's benchmark. The Advisor attempts to consistently apply … The Fund employs as its investment strategy a program of investing in the common stock of companies that are generally within the capitalization range of the underlying index and derivative instruments, which primarily consist of equity index swaps and swaps on exchange-traded funds, futures contracts, and options on securities, futures contracts, and stock indices. While the Fund may write (sell) and purchase swaps, it expects primarily to purchase swaps. Swap agreements and futures and options contracts, if used properly, may enable the Fund to meet its objective by increasing the Funds exposure to the securities included in the underlying index or in the same proportion that those securities are represented in the Fund's benchmark. The Advisor attempts to consistently apply leverage to increase the Fund's exposure to 200% of the underlying index and expects to rebalance the Fund's holdings daily to maintain such exposure. The Funds use of derivatives and the leveraged investment exposure created by such use are expected to be significant. Certain of the Funds derivatives investments may be traded in the over-the-counter (OTC) market. Under normal circumstances, the Fund will invest at least 80% of its net assets, plus any borrowings for investment purposes, in financial instruments with economic characteristics that should perform similarly to the securities of companies in the underlying index. The Dow Jones Industrial Average is a price-weighted index of 30 blue chip U.S. stocks, which generally represent large-capitalization companies with a capitalization range of $ 60.6 billion to $3.8 trillion as of June 30, 2025. To the extent the Funds underlying index is concentrated in a particular industry the Fund will necessarily be concentrated in that industry. The industries in which the underlying index components, and thus the Fund's investments, may be concentrated will vary as the composition of the underlying index changes over time. While the Fund's sector exposure may vary over time, as of June 30, 2025, the Fund has significant exposure to the Consumer Discretionary Sector, Financials Sector, Health Care Sector, Industrials Sector, Information Technology Sector, and Materials Sector, as each sector is defined by the Global Industry Classification Standard, a widely recognized industry classification methodology developed by MSCI, Inc. and Standard & Poors Financial Services LLC. On a day-to-day basis, the Fund may hold U.S. government securities or cash equivalents. The Fund also may enter into repurchase agreements with counterparties that are deemed to present acceptable credit risks. In an effort to ensure that the Fund is fully invested on a day-to-day basis, the Fund may conduct any necessary trading activity at or just prior to the close of the U.S. financial markets. The Fund is non-diversified and, therefore, may invest a greater percentage of its assets in a particular issuer in comparison to a diversified fund. Investments in derivative instruments, such as futures, options and swap agreements, have the economic effect of creating financial leverage in the Funds portfolio because such investments may give rise to losses that exceed the amount the Fund has invested in those instruments. Financial leverage will magnify, sometimes significantly, the Funds exposure to any increase or decrease in prices associated with a particular reference asset resulting in increased volatility in the value of the Funds portfolio. The value of the Funds portfolio is likely to experience greater volatility over short-term periods. While such financial leverage has the potential to produce greater gains, it also may result in greater losses, which in some cases may cause the Fund to liquidate other portfolio investments at a loss to comply with limits on leverage imposed by the Investment Company Act of 1940, satisfy margin or collateral requirements, or meet redemption requests.
