Mutual fund investing involves risks, including the possible loss of principal, and may not be appropriate for all
investors. Stock values fluctuate in response to the activities of individual companies and general market and
economic conditions. Bond values fluctuate in response to the financial condition of individual issuers, general
market and economic conditions, and changes in interest rates. In general, when interest rates rise, bond values
fall and investors may lose principal value. Funds that concentrate their investments in a single industry may face
increased risk of price fluctuation over more diversified funds due to adverse developments within that industry.
Foreign investments are especially volatile and can rise or fall dramatically due to differences in the political and
economic conditions of the host country. These risks are generally intensified in emerging markets. Smaller- and
mid-cap stocks tend to be more volatile and less liquid than those of larger companies. High-yield securities have
a greater risk of default and tend to be more volatile than higher-rated debt securities. Consult a fund's prospectus
for additional information on these and other risks.
Carefully consider a fund’s investment objectives, risks, charges, and expenses before investing. For a current
prospectus and, if available, a summary prospectus, containing this and other information, visit
