Investment Risks:
An investment in a non-diversified fund entails greater price risk than an investment in a diversified fund because a higher percentage of investments among fewer issuers may result in greater fluctuation in the total market value of the fund's portfolio. The value approach to investing involves the risk that those stocks deemed to be undervalued by the portfolio manager may remain undervalued.
