| The investment seeks long-term growth of capital.
The fund normally invests at least 80% of its net assets, plus any borrowings for investment purposes, in equity securities of companies that compose the Standard & Poor's ("S&P") MidCap 400 Index at the time of purchase. The index is designed to represent U.S. equities with risk/return characteristics of the mid cap universe. It invests in index futures and options and exchange-traded funds ("ETFs") on a daily basis to gain exposure to the index in an effort to minimize tracking error relative to the benchmark. |
