Risk Considerations
Unit investment trusts are designed to be held until trust termination. If redeemed early, additional fees, such as remaining deferred sales charges, will be assessed.
Equity Risk. An investment in a portfolio containing common stocks is subject to certain risks, such as an economic recession and the possible deterioration of either the financial condition of the issuers of the equity securities or the general condition of the stock market.
Derivatives Risk. Funds held by the trust may invest in derivatives such as swap agreements to gain inverse exposure to its target index. As such, the funds will be subject to credit risk with respect to the amount it expects to receive from counterparties to derivatives and repurchase agreements entered into by the funds. If a counterparty becomes bankrupt or otherwise fails to perform its obligations due to financial difficulties, the value of the trust's investment in the funds may decline.
ETF Risk. ETFs are subject to various risks, including management's ability to meet the fund's investment objective, and to manage the fund's portfolio when the underlying securities are redeemed or sold, during periods of market turmoil and as investors' perceptions regarding ETFs or their underlying investments change. Unlike open-end funds, which trade at prices based on a current determination of the fund's net asset value, ETFs frequently trade at a discount from their net asset value in the secondary market.
Market Risk. Market risk is the risk that a particular security, or units of a trust in general may fall in value. Securities are subject to market fluctuations caused by such factors as general economic conditions, political events, regulatory or market developments, changes in interest rates, and perceived trends in securities prices. Units of a trust could decline in value or underperform other investments as a result. In addition, local, regional, or global events such as war, acts of terrorism, spread of infectious disease or other public health issues, recessions, natural disasters, or other events could have significant negative impact on a trust.
Volatility Risk. The value of the securities held by the trust may be subject to steep declines or increased volatility due to changes in performance or perception of the issuers.
Additional Risk. For a discussion of additional risks of investing in the trust see the "Risk Factors" section of the prospectus.
