Investing in index funds may be more volatile than investing in broadly diversified funds. The use of leverage by a mutual fund increases the risk to the fund. The more a fund invests in leveraged instruments the more the leverage will magnify gains or losses on those investments.

The principal risks of investing in the Japan Bull 2x Funds are Market Timing Activity and High Portfolio Turnover, Risk of Tracking Error, Risks of Aggressive Investment Techniques, Leverage Risk, Counterparty Risks, Risk of Non-Diversification, Interest Rate Changes, Risks of Investing in Other Investment Companies and ETFs, Adverse Market Conditions, Risks of Investing in Equity Securities, Credit Risk, Geographic Concentration Risk, Risks of Investing in Foreign Instruments, and Currency Exchange Rates. Also, it is important to note that Japan struggled economically after the sharp decline of its stock market in the early 1990’s and the future for the market remains uncertain. Japan must deal with the costs of an aging population and the potential that aging workforce will impair productivity. Japanese companies could be hurt by a failure to successfully implement significant proposed reforms to Japan’s economy and financial system. Japanese stocks tend to be more volatile than the U.S. counterparts. For more information on the risks of the fund, including a description of each risk, please refer to the prospectus.
