SMID Growth SMA

Diversification does not ensure or guarantee better performance and cannot eliminate the risk of investment losses.

Market Risk: Stock values fluctuate in response to the activities of individual companies and general market and economic conditions. Foreign Investment Risk: Foreign investments may be subject to lower liquidity, greater price volatility and risks related to adverse political, regulatory, market or economic developments. Growth/Value Investing Risk: Securities that exhibit growth or value characteristics tend to perform differently and shift into and out of favor with investors depending on changes in market and economic sentiment and conditions. Smaller Company Securities Risk: Companies with smaller market capitalizations tend to be more volatile and less liquid than those of larger companies.
