The use of leverage increases the impact of gains and losses on the Fund’s returns, and may lead to significant losses if investments are not successful.
Effective immediately, the “Borrowing and Leverage Risk” disclosure under the “More About Risks” section within the Fund’s prospectus is hereby deleted.
Effective immediately, the “Borrowing” sub‑section within the “Investment Strategies and Risks” section of the Fund’s Statement of Additional Information is hereby deleted.
