Strategy. The Fund is managed to seek to track the performance of the Index, which measures the performance of those Russell 2000 companies with higher price-to-book ratios and higher forecasted growth values. The Subadviser may endeavor to track the Index by purchasing every stock included in the Index, in the same proportions. Or, in the alternative, the Subadviser may invest in a sampling of Index stocks by utilizing a statistical technique known as optimization. The goal of optimization is to select stocks which ensure that various industry weightings, market capitalizations, and fundamental characteristics ( e.g. , price-to-book, price-to-earnings, debt-to-asset ratios and dividend yields) closely approximate those of the Index.

The goal of optimization is to select stocks which ensure that various industry weightings, market capitalizations, and fundamental characteristics ( e.g. , price-to-book, price-to-earnings, debt-to-asset ratios and dividend yields) closely approximate those of the Index. The Fund invests, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of net assets in stocks that are in the Index. Although the Fund seeks to track the performance of the Index, the performance of the Fund will not match that of the Index exactly because, among other reasons, the Fund incurs operating expenses and other investment overhead as part of its normal operations. The subadviser may use derivatives to seek to track the performance of the Index, including futures and total return swaps. In order to generate additional income, the Fund may lend portfolio securities to broker-dealers and other financial institutions provided that the value of the loaned securities does not exceed 30% of the Funds total assets. These loans earn income for the Fund and are collateralized by cash and securities issued or guaranteed by the U.S. Government or its agencies or instrumentalities. Investors will be given at least 60 days written notice in advance of any change to the Funds 80% investment policy set forth above. Show less
