Unless otherwise noted, performance information is hypothetical and GROSS of all associated fees and sales and trading expenses that an investor might incur. You cannot invest directly in an index. Hypothetical or model performance results have certain limitations including, but not limited to: hypothetical results do not take into account actual trading and market factors (such as liquidity disruptions, etc.). Simulated performance assumes frictionless transaction costs and no lag between signal generation and implementation. Simulated performance is designed with the benefit of hindsight and there can be no assurance that the strategy presented would have been able to achieve the results shown. There are frequently large differences between hypothetical performance results and actual results from any investment strategy.
