Merk Asian Currency Fund: Performance

The Merk Asian Currency Fund provides you with exposure to a basket of Asian currencies. This strategy seeks to take advantage of the dollar’s decline relative to these currencies, may help to diversify your portfolio, and potentially decreases downside risk against a decline in the dollar. The Merk Asian Currency Fund indirectly provides access to these currencies, while seeking to mitigate stock market, credit and interest risks incurred by alternative means of access, such as the typical international equity or bond fund.

The performance numbers below are for the period ending January 5, 2009.

As with any investment strategy, there is no guarantee we will achieve this goal and the strategy may not be suitable for every investor. The Fund is not a substitute for a money market fund. The prospectus should be read carefully before investing.
