OBJECTIVE  |  The Specialized Technology Fund seeks long-term capital appreciation.

PRINCIPAL STRATEGIES  |  We invest principally in equity securities of global technology companies including common stocks and preferred stocks, warrants, convertible debt securities, ADRs (and similar investments), shares of other mutual funds, and shares of foreign companies traded and settled on U.S. exchanges and over-the-counter markets. We may also hedge the portfolio's foreign currency exposure by purchasing or selling foreign currency futures and foreign currency forward contracts.

We define technology companies as those with revenues primarily generated by technology products and services, such as computer, software, communications equipment and services, semi-conductor, health care, biotechnology, defense and aerospace, energy equipment and services, nanotechnology, electric manufacturing services and others. We concentrate the Fund's investments in the technology sector, and because we retain the flexibility to invest in a relatively small number of stocks, the Fund is also considered to be non-diversified. We evaluate the fundamental value and prospects for growth of individual companies and focus on technology companies that we expect will have higher than average rates of growth and strong potential for capital appreciation. We develop forecasts of economic growth, inflation, and interest rates that we use to identify regions and individual countries that are likely to offer the best investment opportunities. We may reduce or eliminate exposure to a stock when we identify a more attractive investment opportunity and/or when a company's fundamentals change.

RISKS  |  Stock fund values fluctuate in response to the activities of individual companies and general market and economic conditions. The use of derivatives may reduce returns and/or increase volatility. Active trading results in increased turnover and trading expenses and may generate higher short-term capital gains. Certain investment strategies tend to increase the total risk of an investment (relative to the broader market). This Fund is exposed to foreign investment risk, nondiversification risk, smaller company securities risk, and technology sector risk. Consult the Fund's prospectus for additional information on these and other risks.
