Stock markets are volatile and equity values can decline significantly in response to adverse issuer, political, regulatory, market and economic conditions. Investing in international and emerging markets poses special risks, including potentially greater price volatility due to social, political, and economic factors, as well as currency exchange rate fluctuations. These risks are more severe for securities of issuers in emerging market regions. Fixed income investments are affected by interest rate changes and the creditworthiness of the issues held. As interest rates rise, the values of fixed income securities are likely to decrease and reduce the value of the security. High-yield investing poses additional credit risk related to lower-rated bonds. Although inflation protected securities seek to provide inflation protection, their prices may decline when interest rates rise and vice versa. There are special risks associated with an investment in Real Estate Investment Trusts (REITs) which may include credit risk, interest rate fluctuations and the impact of varied economic conditions. Commodities Risk – The value of commodities investments will generally be affected by overall market movements and factors specific to a particular industry or commodity including weather, embargoes, tariffs, or health, political, international, and regulatory developments. Diversification does not assure a profit or protect against loss in a declining market.
