Investment Risks:
An investment in this fund may be more volatile and risky than some other forms of investment. This fund may have a high portfolio turnover that could increase transaction costs and cause short-term capital gains to be realized. The investment style is less restricted and the manager may take short positions which can be risky. 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.
Non-U.S. investments are subject to currency fluctuations, social, economic and politial risks. Investments in small companies may involve higher risk due to limited product lines, markets or financial resources.
