The fund employs a "market neutral" strategy, utilizing both long and short positions in equity and equity-related securities while seeking to preserve capital during declining U.S. equity markets. It generally seeks to short equity securities and equity-based ETFs. The fund is generally expected that its short exposure will be in the 60-100% range. In pursuing its market neutral strategy, the fund seeks a total return greater than the return on three-month U.S. Treasury bills.
