Investing involves risk, including the possible loss of
principal. International investments may involve risk of capital
loss from unfavorable fluctuation in currency values, from
differences in generally accepted accounting principles, or from
economic or political instability in other nations. Emerging
markets involve heightened risks related to the same factors as
well as increased volatility and lower trading volume. Investments
in securities in the Technology sector are subject to rapid changes
in technology product cycles; rapid product obsolescence;
government regulation; and increased competition, both domestically
and internationally, including competition from foreign competitors
with lower production costs. Technology companies and companies
that rely heavily on technology tend to be more volatile than the
overall market, and are also heavily dependent on patent and
intellectual property rights. Securities focusing on a single
country and narrowly focused investments may be subject to higher
volatility. QQQC is non-diversified.
Shares of ETFs are bought and sold at market price (not NAV) and
are not individually redeemed from the Fund. Brokerage commissions
will reduce returns.
Carefully consider the Fund's investment objectives,
risks, and charges and expenses before investing. This and other
information can be found in the Fund's summary or full
prospectuses, which may be obtained at globalxfunds.com. Please
read the prospectus carefully before investing.
