Summary
The investment seeks total return comprised of income and capital appreciation, while maintaining a secondary emphasis on capital preservation. To achieve its investment objective, the fund invests primarily in an allocation of fixed income Indexed Investments of varying maturities and credit qualities. Indexed Investments include exchange-traded funds or ETFs, groups of securities related by index or sector made available through certain brokers at a discount brokerage rate (such as baskets of bonds or other index- or sector- based groups of related securities) and index-based mutual funds or other investment companies (collectively, "Indexed Investments").
