Performance for periods over one year is annualized. The performance data quoted here represents past performance. Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Investment return and principal value of an investment will fluctuate, so that an investor’s shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance information quoted.
The performance shown for periods prior to July 18, 2014, was for a privately-offered class of shares of the Fund that no longer exists and was exchanged for the current publicly-offered shares of the open-end mutual Fund.
The Alerian MLP Index is a leading gauge of energy infrastructure Master Limited Partnerships (MLPs). The capped, float-adjusted, capitalization-weighted index, whose constituents earn the majority of their cash flow from midstream activities involving energy commodities, is disseminated real-time on a price-return basis (AMZ) and on a total-return basis (AMZX).
