The per share amount of realized and unrealized gain (loss) on investments does not directly correlate to the amounts reported in the Statement of Operations due to the timing
of portfolio share transactions in relation to fluctuating market values.
|
(d)
|
Total return is calculated assuming a purchase of a share on the first day and a sale on the last day of each period reported and includes reinvestment of dividends and
distributions, if any. Total returns may reflect adjustments to conform to GAAP. Total returns for periods less than one full year are not annualized.
|
(e)
|
Does not include expenses of the underlying funds in which the Fund invests.
|
(f)
|
Annualized.
|
(g)
|
The Fund's portfolio turnover rate is calculated in accordance with regulatory requirements, without regard to transactions involving short-term investments, certain derivatives
and in-kind transactions (if any). If such transactions were included, the Fund's portfolio turnover rate may be higher.
