Notes to Statement of Investments:

 

 

 

* Security Valuation:

 

 

 

Securities of the Fund are valued at market value or, if a market quotation for a security is not readily available or is deemed not to be reliable because of events or circumstances that have occurred between the market quotation and the time as of which the security is to be valued, the security is valued at a fair value determined in accordance with procedures established by the Board of Trustees. A security traded on a securities exchange or in an over-the-counter market in which transaction prices are reported is valued at the last sales price at the time of valuation. A security traded principally on the NASDAQ is valued at the NASDAQ official closing price. A security for which there is no reported sale on the valuation date is valued at the latest bid quotation. A short-term debt obligation having a maturity of 60 days or less from the valuation date is valued at amortized cost, which approximates fair value. A security for which a market quotation is not readily available and any other assets are valued as determined in good faith under consistently applied procedures established by and under the general supervision of the Board of Trustees. The Trust has retained an independent statistical fair value pricing service to assist in the fair valuation process for securities principally traded in a foreign market in order to adjust for possible changes in value that may occur between the close of the foreign exchange and the time as of which the securities are to be valued. If a security is valued at a “fair value”, that value may be different from the last quoted market price for the security.

Notes to Statement of Investments:

 

 

 

* Security Valuation:

 

 

 

Securities of the Fund are valued at market value or, if a market quotation for a security is not readily available or is deemed not to be reliable because of events or circumstances that have occurred between the market quotation and the time as of which the security is to be valued, the security is valued at a fair value determined in accordance with procedures established by the Board of Trustees. A security traded on a securities exchange or in an over-the-counter market in which transaction prices are reported is valued at the last sales price at the time of valuation. A security traded principally on the NASDAQ is valued at the NASDAQ official closing price. A security for which there is no reported sale on the valuation date is valued at the latest bid quotation. A short-term debt obligation having a maturity of 60 days or less from the valuation date is valued at amortized cost, which approximates fair value. A security for which a market quotation is not readily available and any other assets are valued as determined in good faith under consistently applied procedures established by and under the general supervision of the Board of Trustees. The Trust has retained an independent statistical fair value pricing service to assist in the fair valuation process for securities principally traded in a foreign market in order to adjust for possible changes in value that may occur between the close of the foreign exchange and the time as of which the securities are to be valued. If a security is valued at a “fair value”, that value may be different from the last quoted market price for the security.

* Security Valuation:

Securities of the Fund are valued at market value or, if a market quotation for a security is not readily available or is deemed not to be reliable because of events or circumstances that have occurred between the market quotation and the time as of which the security is to be valued, the security is valued at a fair value determined in accordance with procedures established by the Board of Trustees. A security traded on a securities exchange or in an over-the-counter market in which transaction prices are reported is valued at the last sales price at the time of valuation. A security traded principally on the NASDAQ is valued at the NASDAQ official closing price. A security for which there is no reported sale on the valuation date is valued at the latest bid quotation. A short-term debt obligation having a maturity of 60 days or less from the valuation date is valued at amortized cost, which approximates fair value. A security for which a market quotation is not readily available and any other assets are valued as determined in good faith under consistently applied procedures established by and under the general supervision of the Board of Trustees. The Trust has retained an independent statistical fair value pricing service to assist in the fair valuation process for securities principally traded in a foreign market in order to adjust for possible changes in value that may occur between the close of the foreign exchange and the time as of which the securities are to be valued. If a security is valued at a “fair value”, that value may be different from the last quoted market price for the security.
