Investment Objective The investment seeks long-term capital appreciation. The fund invests primarily in a portfolio of equity securities of companies that are undervalued in the opinion of the fund's adviser. It also seeks to invest in companies that balance generating profits with an awareness of their impact on the environment and society in general. The fund may not invest in companies that derive substantial revenues from the tobacco, alcohol, pornography, gambling, or weapons industries. Its adviser actively trades currency futures contracts (long or short) for hedging or investment purposes. The fund is non-diversified.
