| Risk [Text Block] |
As with all mutual funds, there is the risk that you could lose money through your investment in the Fund. An investment
in the Fund is not guaranteed to achieve its investment objective; is not a deposit with a bank; is not insured, endorsed or guaranteed
by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency; and is subject to investment risks. The value of your investment
in the Fund, as well as the amount of return you receive on your investment, may fluctuate significantly. You may lose part or all of
your investment in the Fund or your investment may not perform as well as other similar investments. The Fund is not intended to be a
complete investment program but rather one component of a diversified investment portfolio. Many factors affect the Funds net asset
value and performance. Each risk summarized below is a principal risk of investing in the Fund and different risks may be more significant
at different times depending upon market conditions or other factors.
As
with any fund, there is no guarantee that the Fund will achieve its goal.
| ● | Market
Risk. Overall market risk may affect the value of individual instruments in which the
Fund invests. The Fund is subject to the risk that the securities markets will move down,
sometimes rapidly and unpredictably, based on overall economic conditions and other factors,
which may negatively affect the Funds performance. Factors such as domestic and foreign
(non-U.S.) economic growth and market conditions, real or perceived adverse economic or political
conditions, military conflict, acts of terrorism, social unrest, natural disasters, recessions,
inflation, changes in interest rate levels, supply chain disruptions, sanctions, the spread
of infectious illness or other public health threats, lack of liquidity in the bond or other
markets, volatility in the securities markets or adverse investor sentiment and political
events affect the securities markets. A change in financial condition or other events affecting
a single issuer or market may adversely impact securities markets as a whole. U.S. and foreign
stock markets have experienced periods of substantial price volatility in the past and may
do so again in the future. Securities markets also may experience long periods of decline
in value. When the value of the Funds investments goes down, your investment in the
Fund decreases in value and you could lose money. |
Local,
state, regional, national or global events such as war, acts of terrorism, the spread of infectious illness or other public health issues,
recessions, or other events could have a significant impact on the Fund and its investments and could result in decreases to the Funds
net asset value. Political, geopolitical, natural and other events, including war, terrorism, trade disputes, government shutdowns, market
closures, natural and environmental disasters, epidemics, pandemics and other public health crises and related events and governments
reactions to such events have led, and in the future may lead, to economic uncertainty, decreased economic activity, increased market
volatility and other disruptive effects on U.S. and global economies and markets. Such events may have significant adverse direct or
indirect effects on the Fund and its investments. For example, a widespread health crisis such as a global pandemic could cause substantial
market volatility, exchange trading suspensions and closures, impact the ability to complete redemptions, and affect Fund performance.
A health crisis may exacerbate other pre-existing political, social and economic risks. In addition, the increasing interconnectedness
of markets around the world may result in many markets being affected by events or conditions in a single country or region or events
affecting a single or small number of issuers.
| ● | Market
Events Risk. There has been increased volatility, depressed valuations, decreased liquidity
and heightened uncertainty in the financial markets during the past several years, including
what was experienced in 2020. These conditions may continue, recur, worsen or spread. The
U.S. government and the Federal Reserve, as well as certain foreign governments and central
banks, have taken steps to support financial markets, including by lowering interest rates
to historically low levels. This and other government intervention may not work as intended,
particularly if the efforts are perceived by investors as being unlikely to achieve the desired
results. When the U.S. government and the Federal Reserve reduce market support activities,
including by increasing interest rates, such reductions could negatively affect financial
markets generally, increase market volatility and reduce the value and liquidity of securities
in which the Fund invests. Policy and legislative changes in the United States and in other
countries may also continue to contribute to decreased liquidity and increased volatility
in the financial markets. The impact of these changes on the markets, and the practical implications
for market participants, may not be fully known for some time. |
| ● | Management
Risk. The risk that investment strategies employed by the Funds adviser in selecting
investments for the Fund may not result in an increase in the value of your investment or
in overall performance equal to other similar investment vehicles having similar investment
strategies. Management risk includes the risk that the quantitative model used by the Adviser
may not perform as expected, particularly in volatile markets. |
| ● | Small
Cap Companies Risk. The Fund will invest in smaller issuers which are more volatile and
less liquid than investments in issuers with larger market capitalizations. Small market
capitalization issuers are not as diversified in their business activities as issuers with
larger market capitalizations and are more susceptible to changes in the business cycle.
The prices of securities of small market capitalization issuers generally are more volatile,
less liquid, and more likely to be adversely affected by poor economic or market conditions
than securities of larger companies. Small companies may have limited product lines, markets
or financial resources, and they may be dependent upon a limited management group. Should
a product fail, or if management changes, or if there are other adverse developments, the
Funds investment in a small or mid-cap company may lose substantial value. In addition,
small-cap companies may be particularly affected by interest rate increases, as they may
find it more difficult to borrow money to continue or expand operations, or may have difficulty
in repaying any loans. |
The
small capitalization equity securities in which the Fund invests may be traded only in the over-the-counter market or on a regional securities
exchange, may be listed only in the quotation service commonly known as the pink sheets, and may not be traded every day
or in the volume typical of trading on a national securities exchange. These securities may also be subject to wide fluctuations in market
value. The trading market for any given small capitalization equity security may be sufficiently small as to make it difficult for the
Fund to dispose of a substantial block of such securities. The sale by the Fund of portfolio securities to meet redemptions may require
the Fund to sell its small capitalization securities at a discount from market prices or during periods when, in the Advisers judgment,
such sale is not desirable. Moreover, the lack of an efficient market for these securities may make them difficult to value.
| ● | Equity
Securities Risk. The stock (i.e., equity) market can be volatile. Equity securities are
susceptible to general market fluctuations, volatile increases and decreases in value as
market confidence in and perceptions of their issuers change and unexpected trading activity
among retail investors. The prices of stocks can fall rapidly in response to developments
affecting a specific company or industry, or to changing economic, political or market conditions. |
| ● | Value-Style
Investing Risk. Value securities, including those selected by the portfolio manager for
the Fund, are subject to the risks that their intrinsic value may never be realized by the
market and that their prices may go down. In addition, value style investing may fall out
of favor and underperform growth or other styles of investing during given periods. The Funds
value discipline may result in a portfolio of stocks that differs materially from its illustrative
index. |
| ● | Cash
Positions Risk. At times, the Fund may hold a significant position in cash, cash equivalent
securities or U.S. Treasury investments. When the Funds investment in cash, cash equivalent
securities or U.S. Treasury investment increases, the Fund may not participate in market
advances or declines to the same extent that it would if the Fund were more fully invested. |
| ● | Cybersecurity
Risk. There is risk to the Fund of an unauthorized breach and access to fund assets,
customer data (including private shareholder information), or proprietary information, or
the risk of an incident occurring that causes the Fund, the investment adviser, custodian,
transfer agent, distributor and other service providers and financial intermediaries (Service
Providers) to suffer data breaches, data corruption or lose operational functionality.
Successful cyber-attacks or other cyber-failures or events affecting the Fund or its Service
Providers may adversely impact the Fund or its shareholders. |
| ● | Foreign
(Non-U.S.) Investment Risk. Foreign (non-U.S.) securities present greater investment
risks than investing in the securities of U.S. issuers and may experience more rapid and
extreme changes in value than the securities of U.S. companies, due to less information about
foreign (non-U.S.) companies in the form of reports and ratings than about U.S. issuers;
different accounting, auditing and financial reporting requirements; smaller markets; nationalization;
expropriation or confiscatory taxation; currency blockage; or political changes or diplomatic
developments. Foreign (non-U.S.) securities may also be less liquid and more difficult to
value than securities of U.S. issuers. |
| ● | Gap
Risk. The Fund is subject to the risk that stock price or derivative value will change
dramatically from one level to another with no trading in between and/or before the Fund
can exit from the investment. Usually such movements occur when there are adverse news announcements,
which can cause a stock price or derivative value to drop substantially from the previous
days closing price. Trading halts may lead to gap risk. |
| ● | Geographic
Risk. The risk that if the Fund invests a significant portion of its total assets in
certain issuers within the same geographic region, an adverse economic, business or political
development or natural or other event, including war, terrorism, natural and environmental
disasters, epidemics, pandemics and other public health crises, affecting that region may
affect the value of the Funds investments more than if the investments were not so
focused. |
| ● | Issuer-Specific
Risk. The value of a specific security can be more volatile than the market as a whole
and may perform worse than the market as a whole. |
| ● | Liquidity
Risk. Liquidity risk exists when particular investments of the Fund would be difficult
to purchase or sell, possibly preventing the Fund from selling such illiquid securities at
an advantageous time or price, or possibly requiring the Fund to dispose of other investments
at unfavorable times or prices in order to satisfy its obligations. In the past, in stressed
markets, certain types of securities suffered periods of illiquidity if disfavored by the
market. All of these risks may increase during periods of market turmoil, such as that experienced
in 2020 with COVID-19, and could have a negative effect on the Funds performance. |
| ● | Money
Market Fund Risk. The Fund may invest in money market mutual funds. An investment in
a money market mutual fund is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance
Corporation or any other government agency. Although money market mutual funds that invest
in U.S. government securities seek to preserve the value of the Funds investment at
$1.00 per share, it is possible to lose money by investing in a stable NAV money market mutual
fund. Moreover, SEC rules require prime money market mutual funds to use floating NAVs that
do not preserve the value of the Funds investment at $1.00 per share. These rule amendments
may impact the Funds use of prime money market mutual funds for capital preservation
purposes. |
| ● | New
Fund Risk. The Fund is recently formed. Investors bear the risk that the Fund may not
grow to or maintain economically viable size, not be successful in implementing its investment
strategy, and may not employ a successful investment strategy, any of which could result
in the Fund being liquidated at any time without shareholder approval and/or at a time that
may not be favorable for certain shareholders. Such a liquidation could have negative tax
consequences for shareholders. |
| ● | Portfolio
Turnover Risk. The Fund may experience high portfolio turnover, including investments
made on a shorter-term basis, which may lead to increased Fund expenses that may result in
lower investment returns. High portfolio turnover may also result in higher short-term capital
gains taxable to shareholders. |
| ● | Sector
Risk. If the Fund invests a significant portion of its total assets in certain issuers
within the same economic sector, there is a risk that an adverse economic, business or political
development or natural or other event, including war, terrorism, natural and environmental
disasters, epidemics, pandemics and other public health crises, affecting that sector may
affect the value of the Funds investments more than if the Funds investments
were not so focused. While the Fund may not concentrate in any one industry, the Fund may
invest without limitation in a particular sector. |
| ○ | Consumer
Discretionary Sector Risk. The consumer discretionary sector may be adversely affected
by changes in the worldwide economy, consumer spending, competition, demographics and consumer
preference, exploration and production spending. In addition, the impact of any epidemic,
pandemic or natural disaster, or widespread fear that such events may occur, could negatively
affect the global economy and, in turn, negatively affect companies in the consumer discretionary
sector |
| ○ | Financials
Sector Risk. Companies in the financials sector may be adversely impacted by many factors,
including, among others, changes in government regulations, economic conditions, and interest
rates, credit rating downgrades, and decreased liquidity in credit markets. In addition,
in recent years, cyber-attacks and technology malfunctions and failures have become increasingly
frequent in this sector and have caused significant losses to companies in this sector. |
| ○ | Industrials
Sector Risk. The value of companies in the industrial sector may be adversely affected
by supply and demand related to their specific products or services and industrial sector
products in general. The products of manufacturing companies may face obsolescence due to
rapid technological developments and the introduction of new products. |
| ● | Securities
Lending Risk. The Fund may lend portfolio securities to institutions, such as banks and
certain broker-dealers. The risks associated with lending portfolio securities, as with other
extensions of secured credit, include, but are not limited to, possible delays in receiving
additional collateral or in the recovery of the securities loaned, possible loss of rights
in the collateral should the borrower fail financially, as well as risk of loss in the value
of the collateral or the value of the investments made with the collateral. In certain market
conditions, the portion of the Funds securities on loan may be significant and may
magnify the risk of such a loss or delay. Any gain or loss in the market price of the securities
loaned that occurs during the term of the loan would be for the account of the Fund. |
| ● | U.S.
Government Securities Risk. Treasury obligations may differ in their interest rates,
maturities, times of issuance and other characteristics. Obligations of U.S. Government agencies
and authorities are supported by varying degrees of credit but generally are not backed by
the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government. No assurance can be given that the U.S.
Government will provide financial support to its agencies and authorities if it is not obligated
by law to do so. In addition, the value of U.S. Government securities may be affected by
changes in the credit rating of the U.S. Government. |
| ● | Valuation
Risk. The sale price that the Fund could receive for a portfolio security may differ
from the Funds valuation of the security, particularly for securities that trade in
low volume or volatile markets, or that are valued using a fair value methodology. In addition,
the value of the securities in the Funds portfolio may change on days when shareholders
will not be able to purchase or sell the Funds shares. |
| ● | Volatility
Risk. The Funds investments may appreciate or decrease significantly in value over
short periods of time. The value of an investment in the Funds portfolio may fluctuate
due to events or factors that affect industries, sectors or markets generally or that affect
a particular investment, industry or sector. The value of an investment in the Funds
portfolio may also be more volatile than the market as a whole. This volatility may affect
the Funds net asset value per share, including by causing it to experience significant
increases or declines in value over short periods of time. |

short periods of time. The value of an investment in the Funds portfolio may fluctuate
due to events or factors that affect industries, sectors or markets generally or that affect
a particular investment, industry or sector. The value of an investment in the Funds
