MOM Investment Objective and Strategy

AGFiQ U.S. Market Neutral Momentum Fund describes its objective and strategy as follows, from its latest prospectus filed with the SEC by AGF Investments Trust.

Investment objective

The Fund seeks performance results that correspond to the price and yield performance, before fees and expenses, of the Dow Jones U.S. Thematic Market Neutral Momentum Index.

Principal investment strategy

The Fund seeks to track the performance of the Dow Jones U.S. Thematic Market Neutral Momentum Index (the Target Momentum Index or Index). The Target Momentum Index is a long/short market neutral index that is dollar-neutral. As such, it identifies long and short securities positions of approximately equal dollar amounts. The Fund invests at least 80% of its net assets (plus borrowing for investment purposes) in common stock of the long positions in the Target Momentum Index and sells short at least 80% of the short positions in the Target Momentum Index. The performance of the Fund will depend on the difference in the rates of return between its long positions and short positions. For example, if the Fund's long positions appreciated more rapidly than its short positions, the Fund would generate a positive return.

If the opposite occurred, the Fund would generate a negative return. In choosing to track a market neutral index, the Fund seeks to limit the effects of general market movements on the Fund. The universe for the Target Momentum Index is the top 1,000 eligible securities by market capitalization, including real estate investment trusts (REITs), in the Dow Jones U.S. Index (universe). The securities included in the universe are categorized as belonging to one of ten sectors. The Target Momentum Index identifies approximately the 20% of securities with the highest momentum within each sector as equal-weighted long positions and approximately the 20% of securities with the lowest momentum within each sector as equal-weighted short positions. A stock's momentum is based on its total return, which is a function of price performance and dividend returns over the first twelve of the last thirteen months.

High momentum stocks are those stocks with higher total returns, and low momentum stocks are those stocks with lower total returns. Although the Fund may seek to invest in all of the long and short positions that comprise the Target Momentum Index in approximately the same weight as they appear in the Index, the Fund may use a sampling strategy to track the performance of the Target Momentum Index. A sampling strategy involves investing in a representative sample of the long and short positions in the Target Momentum Index that, collectively, have an investment profile correlated with the Target Momentum Index. The Fund may invest up to 20% of its assets in instruments, other than the long and short positions in the Target Momentum Index, that the Adviser believes will help the Fund track the Target Momentum Index.

Such instruments may include long and short common stocks not in the Target Momentum Index, derivatives, including swap agreements based on the Target Momentum Index and futures contracts on equity indexes, and money market instruments. The Target Momentum Index, which is compiled by Dow Jones Indexes, is equal-weighted and sector neutral - meaning that at each quarterly reconstitution of the Index, all of the components of the Index are equal-weighted and the number of long and short positions in each sector in the Index approximate the weighting of that sector in the universe. The Target Momentum Index may be rebalanced between reconstitutions back to equal weights and sector neutrality. The Fund is expected to concentrate its investments ( i.e. , hold 25% or more of its total assets) in a particular industry or group of industries to approximately the same extent that the Target Momentum Index is concentrated.
