(b) This is the investment performance for each notional portfolio over the period shown and includes capital returns, dividend income and estimated transaction costs (but excludes distributions, fees, charges or tax). The portfolio assumes a full equities allocation at all times, the reinvestment of dividends and the rebalancing of the portfolio to equal weight each time a change is made to the notional portfolio (i.e. when stocks come in and out of the portfolio). All trades assume enough liquidity to purchase the required volume of stock at the volume-weighted average price (VWAP) on the day following a star stock in/out event or on a rebalance. These past performance figures are not a reliable indicator of future performance of the notional portfolio, or any stocks included in the portfolio. In shorter time periods, the investment performance of the notional portfolio can be vary to the figures shown. You should not make investment decisions based on performance figures alone.
