Investment Risks: Bond investments are subject to interest rate risk so that when interest rates rise, the prices of bonds can decrease and the investor can lose principal value. Equities are subject to market risk including loss of principal. Investments in commodity-related instruments are subject to the risk that the performance of the overall commodities market declines and that weather, disease, political, tax, and other regulatory developments adversely impact the value of commodities, which may result in a loss of principal and interest.

Commodity-linked investments face increased price volatility and liquidity, credit, and issuer risks compared with their underlying measures.
