Past performance does not guarantee future results and current performance may be lower or higher than the past performance data quoted. The investment return and principal value will fluctuate and shares when sold may be worth more or less than the original cost. The current maximum sales charges that may be applied to the fund listed below are Class A, 5.5%; Class B, 5.0%; Class C, 1.0%. Gross operating expenses: Class A, 2.21%; Class B, 2.91%; Class C, 2.91%; Class Z, 1.91%. Net operating expenses include dividends paid on stocks sold short, which are required to be disclosed as an expense ("dividend expense on short sales"). This expense will be substantially offset by market value gains on the day the dividends are announced. Without the inclusion of dividend expense on short sales, the expense ratios would be Class A, 1.84%; Class B, 2.54%; Class C, 2.54%; and Class Z, 1.54%.
