Fund Overview

The Fund seeks long-term capital appreciation by investing in companies with below-average market sensitivity in the Dow Jones U.S. Large-Cap Total Stock Market IndexSM.

The Fund invests in large-capitalization companies believed to be undervalued based on a proprietary valuation metric called Required Business Performance® (RBP®) and believed to have an below-average level of economic and market sensitivity and an below-average exposure to market volatility. The RBP® methodology begins with a reverse discounted cash flow model that aims to determine what current stock prices potentially imply about market expectations for future business performance. RBP® probabilities are then calculated with the aim to measure the likelihood that a company’s management can deliver the performance necessary to support its current stock price.

The RBP® Probability cannot guarantee nor does it predict profit, performance or future stock prices.
