Strategy. Under normal circumstances, the Fund invests in a broadly diversified portfolio of common stocks, while also selling index call options. The Fund also buys index put options, which can protect the Fund from a significant market decline that may occur over a short period of time.

The Fund also buys index put options, which can protect the Fund from a significant market decline that may occur over a short period of time. The combination of the diversified stock portfolio, the cash flow from the sale of index call options and the downside protection from index put options is intended to provide the Fund with the majority of the returns associated with equity market investments while exposing investors to less risk than other equity investments. The Fund may invest in companies with small, medium or large market capitalizations. Equity securities purchased by the Fund may include U.S.-exchange-listed common stocks, American Depositary Receipts (ADRs), and interests in real estate investment trusts (REITs). From time to time, the Fund may reduce its holdings of put options, resulting in an increased exposure to a market decline. The Fund may invest in foreign securities traded in U.S. markets (through ADRs or stocks traded in U.S. dollars). The Fund may also invest in other investment companies, including money market funds, to the extent permitted by the Investment Company Act of 1940. The Fund may enter into repurchase agreements and/or hold cash and cash equivalents. The Fund not only strives for the majority of the returns associated with equity market investments, but also returns in excess of those available from other investments comparable in volatility. With its core investment in equities, the Fund is significantly less vulnerable to fluctuations in value caused by interest rate volatility, a risk factor present in both fixed income and hybrid investments, although the Fund expects to generally have lower long-term returns than a portfolio consisting solely of equity securities. The Fund intends that its index option-based risk management strategy will limit the volatility inherent in equities while sacrificing less of the higher equity returns than hybrid investments.
