Investment Tools

Stock markets are volatile and can fluctuate significantly in response to company, industry, political, regulatory, market, or economic developments. Investing in stock involves risks, including the loss of principal.

Because of their narrow focus, sector funds tend to be more volatile than funds that diversify across many sectors and companies.
