Investing involves risk, including the possible loss of principal. 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 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.
Diversification may not protect against market loss.
Preferred stock is subject to many of the risks associated with debt securities, including interest rate risk. In addition, preferred stock may not pay a dividend, an issuer may suspend payment of dividends on preferred stock at any time, and in certain situations an issuer may call or redeem its preferred stock or convert it to common stock. High yielding stocks are often speculative, high risk investments. These companies can be paying out more than they can support and may reduce their dividends or stop paying dividends at any time, which could have a material adverse effect on the stock price of these companies and the Fund’s performance.
The potential benefits of investing in MLPs depend on them being treated as partnerships for federal income tax purposes. Further, if the MLP is deemed to be a corporation then its income would be subject to federal taxation at the entity level, reducing the amount of cash available for distributions to the fund which could result in a reduction of the fund’s value. The risks associated with real estate investment trusts including interest rate risk which may cause certain REIT holdings to decline
in value if interest rates increase. REITs are subject to general risks related to real estate including default risk and the possibility of decreasing property values. Diversification does not prevent all investment loss. Real estate is highly sensitive to general and local economic conditions and developments, and characterized by intense competition and periodic overbuilding. Many real estate companies, including REITs, utilize leverage (and some may be highly leveraged), which increases risk and could adversely affect a real estate company’s operations and market value in periods of rising interest rates.
ALTY may invest in MLPs, infrastructure investments, REITs, mortgage REITs, convertibles, preferred stocks, senior loans, currency trading, long/short credit, business development companies (“BDCs”), private equity, alternative strategy managed portfolios- and option-writing and therefore may be subject to all underlying risks. ALTY is non-diversified. ALTY may invest in derivatives, which are often more volatile than other investments and may magnify the Fund’s gains or losses.
There is no guarantee that dividends will be paid.
