The ETF total return may appear to diverge from the return of its benchmark. This may be due to the use of systematic fair value. Investment return and principal value of an investment will fluctuate so that an investor's shares, when sold or redeemed, may be worth more or less than the original cost. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance quoted.
