The Morningstar Rating may not be customarily calculated based on adjusted historical returns. If so, this investment's independent Morningstar Rating metric is compared against the retail mutual fund universe breakpoints to determine its hypothetical rating for certain time periods. Other share classes may have different performance characteristics. Past performance does not guarantee future results. For each fund with at least a 3-year history, Morningstar calculates a Morningstar rating (based on a Morningstar risk-adjusted return measure that accounts for variation in a fund's monthly performance, including the effects of sales charges), placing more emphasis on downward variations and rewarding consistent performance. The top 10% of funds in each category receive 5 stars, the next 22.5% receive 4 stars, and the next 35% receive 3 stars (each share class is rated separately, which may cause slight variations in the distribution percentages). The overall Morningstar rating for a fund is derived from a weighted average of the performance figures associated with its 3-, 5-, and 10-year (if applicable) Morningstar rating metrics. The Fund was rated against U.S.-domiciled funds.
