* Returns above reflect total return performance. A total return value is the price level value plus dividends reinvested.

Indices are unmanaged portfolios of securities and their performance, as a group, is typically used to measure investment results. Indices do not include expenses, fees and sales charges that an investor would incur with typical investment vehicles such as an open-end mutual fund or exchange-traded fund. Therefore, index returns would have a higher return than what an investor would actually experience. It is not possible to invest directly in an index.
