The investment seeks capital appreciation and preservation. Under normal market conditions, the fund invests at least 80% of its assets (plus the amount of borrowings, if any) in long and short positions in equity instruments of any market capitalization. Equity instruments include domestic and foreign common stock, preferred stock, depositary receipts, equity swaps (including single-name, index, and basket swaps), options, equity index futures, and other investment companies (such as ETFs, mutual funds, and closed-end funds) that invest in these types of securities.
