An index is a portfolio of specific securities (such as the S&P 500, Dow Jones Industrial Average and Nasdaq composite), the performance of which is often used as a benchmark in judging the relative performance of certain asset classes. Indexes are unmanaged portfolios and investors cannot invest directly in an index.

Diversification cannot eliminate the risk of investment losses and does not assure or guarantee better performance. There are no guarantees that a diversified portfolio will outperform a nondiversified portfolio.

Past performance does not guarantee future results.
