Investments have varying degrees of risk. Some of the risks involved with equity securities include the possibility that the value of the stocks may fluctuate in response to events specific to the companies or markets, as well as economic, political or social events in the U.S. or abroad. Investing in fixed-income securities may involve certain risks, including the credit quality of individual issuers, possible prepayments, market or economic developments and yields and share price fluctuations due to changes in interest rates. When interest rates go up, bond prices typically drop, and vice versa. Bonds are subject to interest rate, inflation and credit risks.
Mutual Fund Risk Considerations: Mutual funds are subject to investment risks, including possible loss of the principal amount invested. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate so that an investor’s shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. For a discussion of the risks specific to a particular mutual fund, please refer to the fund’s prospectus.
ETF Risk Considerations: ETFs are subject to certain risks that may affect the price, yield, total return and ability to meet its investment objectives, including: general market risks; a particular asset class risk; the fact the funds in the ETF are typically passively managed; concentrations in a particular industry or region and; market trading risks (e.g., lack of market liquidity and trading at prices at or above their NAV).
