TUG
About TUG
TUG seeks long term growth of capital
The TUG strategy employs a rules-based approach to asset allocation
First Tactical Unconstrained Growth (TUG) Model signals were used in 2014, with analysis that expands over decades
The TUG strategy seeks to remain invested in equities when the market is rising, and seeks to reduce equity exposure when markets are falling
The TUG model allows for the optionality to play both offense and defense regardless of market conditions
The 30-Day SEC Yield is computed as of the most recent month end under an SEC standardized formula based on net income earned over the past 30 days.
The distribution yield is calculated by annualizing the most recent distribution and dividing by the most recent fund NAV. The yield represents a single distribution from the fund and does not represent total return of the fund.

Investing in ETFs involves risk and there is no guarantee of principal.
Because the Fund is an ETF (rather than a mutual fund), shares are bought and sold at market price (not NAV), may trade at a discount or premium to NAV and are not individually redeemable. Owners of shares may acquire those shares from the Fund and tender those shares for redemption to the Fund in Creation Unit aggregations only. Brokerage commissions will reduce returns.
Cash Redemption Risk. The Fund’s investment strategy may, at times, require it to redeem shares for cash or to otherwise include cash as part of its redemption proceeds. In that case, the Fund may be required to sell or unwind portfolio investments to obtain the cash needed, which may cause the Fund to recognize a capital gain that it might not have recognized if it had made a redemption in kind. Derivatives (Options) Risk. The Fund invests in options that derive their performance from that of the Nasdaq-100 Index. Derivatives may be more sensitive to changes in market conditions and may amplify risks. Selling and buying options are speculative activities and entail greater than ordinary investment risks. Fixed income Risk. Fixed income investments are subject to changes in governmental policy and market conditions, which may cause such investments to be subject to significant volatility and reduced liquidity, depending on the environment. Fixed Income – Call Risk. During periods of falling interest rates, an issue of a callable bond held by the Fund may call or repay the security before maturity, causing the Fund to reinvest proceeds at a lower interest rate. Fixed Income – Credit Risk. Debt issuers and other counterparties may not honor their obligations or have their debt downgraded by ratings agencies. Fixed Income – Extension Risk. During periods of rising interest rates, certain debt obligations will be paid off more slowly than anticipated, causing the value of those securities to fall. This may result in a decline in the Fund’s income and potential the value of the Fund’s investments. Fixed Income – Interest Rate Risk. Rising interest rates may cause the value of fixed-income securities held by the Fund to decline. Large-Capitalization Investing Risk. The securities or large capitalization companies may be relatively mature compared to smaller companies and therefor subject to slower growth during times of economic expansion. Management Risk. The Fund is actively managed and may not meet its investment objective based on the Adviser’s success or failure in implementing the Fund’s strategy. Models and Data Risk. When models and data prove to be incorrect or incomplete, decisions made based on them can expose the Fund to potential risks. New Fund Risk. The Fund is recently organized with no operating history and managed by an Adviser that has not previously managed a registered fund. As such, the Fund has no track record on which to base investment decisions. Non-Diversification Risk. Because the Fund is “non-diversified,” it may invest a greater percentage of its assets in securities of a single issuer or fewer issuers than a diversified fund, which may expose the Fund to the risks associated with the developments affecting the issuers in which the Fund invests. Other Investment Company Risk. By investing in another investment company, including ETFs, the Fund becomes a shareholder of that investment company and bears its proportionate share of the fees and expenses of that investment company. In addition, the Fund is also subject to the principal risks of the investment companies in which it invests U.S. Treasury Obligations Risk. Changes to the financial condition or credit rating of the U.S. government may cause the value of the Fund’s U.S. Treasury obligations to decline.
