Investing involves risk, including possible loss of principal. There is no guarantee the Fund will achieve its stated investment objectives. In addition to the normal risks associated with investing, international investments may involve risk of capital loss from unfavorable fluctuation in currency values, from differences in generally accepted accounting principles or from social, economic, or political instability in other nations. Emerging markets involve heightened risks related to the same factors as well as increased volatility and lower trading volume.
The Fund’s concentration in an industry/sector or group of industries/sectors will increase the impact of, and potential losses associated with, the risks from investing in that industry/sector or group of industries/sectors. The Fund will be sensitive to, and its performance will depend to a greater extent on, the overall condition of Rare Earth and Critical Materials Companies. In addition to the normal risks associated with investing, investments in smaller companies typically exhibit higher volatility. The Fund ls non-diversified under the 1940 Act, meaning that, as compared to a diversified fund, it can invest a greater percentage of its assets in securities issued by or representing a small number of issuers. As a result, the performance of these issuers can have a substantial impact on the Fund's performance]. The Fund is new and has limited operating history for investors to evaluate. New and smaller funds may not attract sufficient assets to achieve investment and trading efficiencies.
Rare earths and critical materials are not things we think about on a daily basis, but the US government and other western governments have really turned their attention to them and feel they are vital for economic and national security. Jerry Hicks of Optica Capital joins us to discuss why this area is of such importance and the investment opportunities in this space via the Rare Earths and Critical Materials ETF (CRIT).
