Investing involves risk, including loss of principal. The Fund
is subject to numerous risks including but not limited to: Equity
Risk, Sector Risk, Large Cap Risk, Management Risk, and Trading
Risk. The Fund relies heavily on a proprietary artificial
intelligence selection model as well as data and information
supplied by third parties that are utilized by such model. To the
extent the model does not perform as designed or as intended, the
Fund’s strategy may not be successfully implemented and the Fund
may lose value. Additionally, the fund is non-diversified, which
means that it may invest more of its assets in the securities of a
single issuer or a smaller number of issuers than if it were a
diversified fund. As a result, each Fund may be more exposed to the
risks associated with and developments affecting an individual
issuer or a smaller number of issuers than a fund that invests more
widely. A new or smaller fund’s performance may not represent how
the fund is expected to or may perform in the long term if and when
it becomes larger and has fully implemented its investment
strategies. Read the prospectus for additional details regarding
risks.
The Funds investments are susceptible to risks affecting the
consumer discretionary, consumer staples, health care and
information technology sectors.

the flagship ETF tracking the S&P500 Index, and as such
substantially overlaps QRFT in security exposure.
investment objectives, strategies, policies, or restrictions of
other funds may differ and more information can be found in their
respective prospectuses. Therefore, we generally do not believe it
is possible to make direct fund to fund comparisons in an effort to
highlight the benefits of a fund versus another similarly managed
fund.

All funds are managed differently and do not react the same to
economic or market events. The investment objectives, strategies,
