Past performance is no guarantee of future results. This is not an offer or solicitation for the purchase or sale of any financial instrument. It is presented only to provide information on investment strategies and opportunities. The material contains the current opinions of the author, which are subject to change without notice. Statements concerning financial market trends are based on current market conditions, which will fluctuate. References to specific securities and issuers are for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to be, and should not be interpreted as, recommendations to purchase or sell such securities. Diversification does not ensure against loss.

 

The portfolio's performance will depend on how its assets are allocated and reallocated among constituent Funds. There is no assurance that the investment objective of any underlying fund will be achieved. The allocation among those Funds will vary, and the Fund may be subject to any and all of the following risks at different times and to different degrees. Investing in smaller companies may entail greater risk than investing in larger companies, including higher volatility. Investing in foreign securities may entail greater risk due to foreign economic and political developments; this risk may be enhanced when investing in emerging markets. High-yield bonds typically have a lower credit rating than other bonds. Lower rated bonds generally involve a greater risk to principal than higher rated bonds. The underlying funds may at times invest in mortgage-related securities, and may use derivative instruments for hedging purposes or as part of an investment strategy. Use of derivative instruments may involve certain costs and risks such as liquidity risk, interest rate risk, market risk, credit risk, management risk and the risk that a fund could not close out a position when it would be most advantageous to do so. Portfolios investing in derivatives could lose more than the principal amount invested in those instruments. Although each portfolio normally invests in a number of different underlying funds, it will be particularly sensitive to the risks associated with the individual Fund(s) and any investments in which that Fund concentrates.
