Strategy. Under normal circumstances, the Fund pursues its objective by investing at least 80% of its assets (net assets, plus the amount of any borrowings for investment purposes) in large-capitalization securities that the Adviser considers having core characteristics. The Fund defines core as investments that typically represent a balance between value and growth investing. However, any particular security may have different degrees of growth or value characteristics. The Fund defines large-capitalization as those companies with market capitalizations generally falling within the range of the S&P 500 Index. The capitalization range of the S&P 500 Index is between $5.8 billion and $3.8 trillion as of December 31, 2024.

However, any particular security may have different degrees of growth or value characteristics. The Fund defines large-capitalization as those companies with market capitalizations generally falling within the range of the S&P 500 Index. The capitalization range of the S&P 500 Index is between $5.8 billion and $3.8 trillion as of December 31, 2024. The Fund defines: ? value as investments that appear to be undervalued relative to assets, earnings, growth potential or cash flows. ? growth as investments having what the Adviser believes to be above-average growth rates (high growth rates for earnings, sales, book value, and cash flow) as compared to their industry or the overall market. The Fund will primarily invest in equity securities, including common stocks, rights, REITs, options, warrants, convertible debt securities of U.S. and U.S. dollar-denominated foreign issuers, and American Depositary Receipts (ADRs). Convertible securities are hybrid financial instruments that typically consist of bonds, debentures, or preferred shares that can be converted into a specified number of common shares of the issuing company, typically at the option of the security holder. The Fund may also invest in various investment vehicles, such as mutual funds and exchange-traded funds (ETFs), for portfolio management purposes, including cash and liquidity management, to obtain a higher return on collateral positions and achieve greater diversification and trading efficiency than would usually be experienced by investing directly and separately in individual securities. In selecting mutual funds and ETFs for investment, the Adviser will prioritize investments that align with and support the Funds overall strategy. In selecting investments for the Fund, the Adviser uses qualitative and quantitative analysis, and other proprietary strategies to identify securities that, in combination, are expected to exceed the total return of the S&P 500 Index by attempting to avoid the losers in the Index. The avoid the losers philosophy is fundamental to the underlying actuarial-like approach of the Adviser with respect to asset management. In its attempts to generate alpha, the Adviser does not aim to pick the winners; instead, it aims to avoid the losers. A loser is a company that, according to the Advisers investment methodology, cannot deliver revenue growth to support its stock price. The Adviser has developed a probability-based measure to identify and avoid these stocks, called the h-factor (h-factor), which is the foundation of the Advisers investment philosophy. The h-factor measures the probability a company cannot deliver the revenue growth indicated by its stock price. In buying and selling securities for the Fund, the Adviser will apply its proprietary h-factor methodology to its security selection process. H-factor uses an algorithm rooted in actuarial risk principles to construct a portfolio with exposure to returns across sectors, styles, geographies, and asset classes. Using an actuarial-based approach, h-factor aims to identify underpriced and overpriced securities and assign them an h-factor score, which is the probability that the issuer will not deliver revenue growth to support the securities current price. Utilizing these scores, the Adviser seeks to avoid the overpriced securities and invest in the underpriced securities. The Fund will sell investments when they no longer meet the Advisers investment criteria, market conditions change or to meet redemption requests. Show less
