Managed Portfolio Risk [Member]

●Managed Portfolio Risk. When choosing an actively managed mutual fund, it is generally important for investors to evaluate the investment adviser managing the fund. With respect to the Fund, performance of individual securities held by the Fund can vary widely. The investment decisions of the Fund’s Adviser may cause the Fund to underperform other investments or benchmark indices. The Fund may also underperform other mutual funds with similar investment strategies. The Fund’s Adviser may not buy chosen securities at the lowest possible price or sell securities at the highest possible prices. As with any mutual fund investment, there can be no guarantee that the Fund will achieve its investment goals.

 

Equity Securities Risk [Member]

●Equity Securities Risk. Equity prices fluctuate and may decline in response to developments at individual companies or general economic conditions including interest rate levels, political events, war, natural disasters and the spread of infectious illness or other public health issues. If the value of Fund’s investments goes down and you redeem your shares, you could lose money. While the ability to hold shares through periods of volatility may protect long-term investments from permanent loss, Fund investments might not be profitable either because the market fails to recognize the value or because the Adviser misjudged the value of the investment.

 

 

Mid-Capitalization Risk [Member]

Risk [Text Block]
●Mid-Capitalization Risk. The Fund may invest significantly in mid-capitalization stocks, which are often more volatile and less liquid than investments in larger companies. The frequency and volume of trading in securities of mid-size companies may be substantially less than is typical of larger companies. Therefore, the securities of mid-size companies may be subject to greater and more abrupt price fluctuations. In addition, mid-size companies may lack the management experience, financial resources and product diversification of larger companies, making them more susceptible to market pressures and business failure.

 

Growth Stock Risk [Member]

Risk [Text Block]
●Growth Stock Risk. Securities of companies perceived to be “growth” companies may be more volatile than other stocks and may involve special risks. The price of a “growth” security may be adversely affected if the company does not realize its anticipated potential or if there is a shift in the market to favor other types of securities.

 

Industry Risk [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]
●Industry Risk. The Fund may be focused in one industry or group of industries. As a result, the Fund’s returns may be considerably more volatile than returns of a fund that does not focus in one industry or group of industries.

 

Non-U.S. Securities Risk [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]
●Non-U.S. Securities Risk. Non-U.S. securities are subject to the risks of foreign currency fluctuation, generally higher volatility and lower liquidity than U.S. securities, less developed securities markets and economic systems and political and economic instability.

 

Currency Risk [Member]

Risk [Text Block]
●Currency Risk. Fluctuations in exchange rates between the U.S. dollar and non-U.S. currencies may cause the value of the Fund’s non-U.S. investments to decline in terms of U.S. dollars. Additionally, certain of the Fund’s foreign currency transactions may give rise to ordinary income or loss to the extent such income or loss results from fluctuations in the value of the foreign currency. Funds that may invest in securities denominated in, or which receive revenues in, non-U.S. currencies are subject to this risk.

 

Fixed-Income Securities Risk [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]
●Fixed-Income Securities Risk. The Fund may hold debt and other fixed-income securities to generate income. Typically, the values of fixed-income securities will change inversely with prevailing interest rates. Therefore, a fundamental risk of fixed-income securities is interest rate risk, which is the risk that their value will generally decline as prevailing interest rates rise, which may cause the Fund’s net asset value to likewise decrease, and vice versa. How specific fixed-income securities may react to changes in interest rates will depend on the specific characteristics of each security. Fixed income securities are also subject to credit risk, prepayment risk, valuation risk and liquidity risk.

 

Allocation Risk [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]
●Allocation Risk. The asset classes in which the Fund seeks investment exposure can perform differently from each other at any given time (as well as over the long term), so the Fund will be affected by its allocation among equity and fixed-income securities. If the Fund favors exposure to an asset class during a period when that class underperforms, performance may be hurt. During periods of rapidly rising equity price, the Fund might not achieve growth in its share price to the same degree as funds focusing only on stocks. The Fund’s investments in stocks may make it more difficult to preserve principal during periods of stock market volatility.

 

Technology Sector Risk [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]
●Technology Sector Risk. To the extent the Fund invests in technology companies, the Fund is particularly vulnerable to factors affecting the technology sector, such as dependency on consumer and business acceptance as new technology evolves, large and rapid price movements resulting from competition, rapid obsolescence of products and services and short product cycles. Many technology companies are small and at an earlier stage of development and, therefore, may be subject to risks such as those arising out of limited product lines, markets and financial and managerial resources.

 

Cash Position Risk [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]
●Cash Position Risk. The Fund may hold cash or short-term instruments, such as interest-bearing savings accounts or demand deposit accounts at banks and investments in money market accounts. During periods when the Fund maintains exposure to cash or short-term instruments, it may not participate in market movements to the same extent that it would if the Fund was more fully invested in equity securities.

 

Corporate Debt Risk [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]
●Corporate Debt Risk. Corporate debt securities in which the Fund may invest are taxable debt obligations issued by corporations, are subject to the risk of the issuer’s inability to meet principal and interest payments on the obligations and may also be subject to price volatility due to factors such as market interest rates, market perception of the creditworthiness of the issuer and general market liquidity. The market value of a debt security generally reacts inversely to interest rate changes. When prevailing interest rates decline, the price of the debt obligation usually rises, and when prevailing interest rates rise, the price usually declines.

 

High Yield Securities Risk [Member]

Risk [Text Block]
●High Yield Securities Risk. The Fund may invest in high yield securities. High yield securities generally offer a higher current yield than that available from higher grade issues, but typically involve greater risk. Securities rated below investment grade are commonly referred to as “junk bonds.” The ability of issuers of high yield securities to make timely payments of interest and principal may be adversely impacted by adverse changes in general economic conditions, changes in the financial condition of the issuers and price fluctuations in response to changes in interest rates. High yield securities are less liquid than investment grade securities and may be difficult to price or sell.

 

Mortgage-Backed and Asset-Backed Securities Risk [Member]  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]
●Mortgage-Backed and Asset-Backed Securities Risk. Mortgage- and asset-backed securities represent interests in “pools” of commercial or residential mortgages or other assets, including consumer loans or receivables. Mortgage- and asset-backed securities tend to be more sensitive to changes in interest rates than other types of debt securities. Investments in mortgage-and asset-backed securities are subject to both extension risk, where borrowers pay off their debt obligations more slowly in times of rising interest rates, and prepayment risk, where borrowers pay off their debt obligations sooner than expected in times of declining interest rates. These risks may reduce the Fund’s returns. In addition, investments in mortgage- and asset-backed securities, including those comprised of subprime mortgages, may be subject to a higher degree of credit risk, valuation risk, and liquidity risk than various other types of fixed-income securities.
Risk Lose Money [Member]
