S&P GSCI Index – The widely tracked S&P GSCI is recognized as a leading measure of general price movements and inflation in the world economy. The index representing market beta is world-production weighted. It is designed to be investable by including the most liquid commodity futures, and provides diversification with low correlations to other asset classes.
The launch date of the S&P GSCI was April 11, 1991. S&P Dow Jones Indices assumed calculation of the S&P GSCI as of May 7, 2007. Prior to that date, the index was calculated by Goldman Sachs or its affiliates from 1991 forward. All information presented prior to the index launch date is back-tested. Back-tested performance, which is hypothetical and not actual performance, is subject to inherent limitations because it reflects application of an index methodology and selection of index constituents in hindsight. No theoretical approach can take into account all of the factors in the markets in general and the impact of decisions that might have been made during the actual operation of an index. Past performance is not an indication or guarantee of future results.

Important Risk Information ‐ Funds investing in a single sector may be subject to more volatility than funds investing in a diverse group of sectors.
Non‐diversified funds that focus on a relatively small number of securities tend to be more volatile than diversified funds and the market as a whole.
Passively managed funds hold a range of securities that, in the aggregate, approximates the full Index in terms of key risk factors and other characteristics. This may cause the fund to experience tracking errors relative to performance of the index.
While the shares of ETFs are tradable on secondary markets, they may not readily trade in all market conditions and may trade at significant discounts in periods of market stress.
ETFs trade like stocks, are subject to investment risk, fluctuate in market value and may trade at prices above or below the ETFs net asset value. Brokerage commissions and ETF expenses will reduce returns.
