How the Fund Invests and Potential Advantages
The Fund invests in liquid futures contracts trading on regulated exchanges and has the following potential advantages:
Enhanced commodity index: The Fund follows the Index which utilizes an Optimum YieldTM methodology designed to provide a more sophisticated strategy for investing in commodities than that provided by conventional commodity indexes.
Cost savings: The Fund does not incur either the cost of storing a physical commodity or the cost of entering into a commodity-linked note with a dealer, a cost that is usually much higher than entering into an exchange-traded futures contract.
Interest earned: The Fund collateralizes its futures contracts primarily with US Treasury securities, money market funds andT-Bill ETFs and earns interest on these securities. Interest income can enhance returns.
Transparency and liquidity: The Fund invests in liquid futures contracts at publicly available prices determined by trading on regulated futures exchanges. We believe that this allows the Fund to gain a more direct and cost-effective exposure to commodities than if the Fund either bought commodity-linked notes, which are not publicly priced, or less liquid futures contracts.
