RTGs:
Conservative
Objective
The Conservative folio was designed for investors seeking an equity portfolio with some potential for long-term capital appreciation and income, with lower volatility than the overall equity market.
Strategy
The Conservative folio holds equities with relatively low beta as compared to the overall U.S. equity market.
This folio is expected to achieve lower returns than the overall equity market during a bull market. However, returns will tend to be slightly better than that of the overall market during a downturn, and with lower volatility than the overall equity market.

Steps to Create This Folio
- We screened for securities with market capitalizations greater than $1 billion and a historical beta lower than 0.7.
- We then selected the securities with the largest market capitalizations in each sector and targeted the sector weights to be comparable to the largest 500 securities ranked by market capitalization.
- We equally weighted all securities in the folio.
Number of Securities
There are generally 30 securities in this folio.
Update Frequency
Quarterly.
If the characteristics of the Folio have changed substantially, the securities included may change. Also, corporate actions, such as a merger, or other events may cause changes to the securities held at any time. Your returns may deviate significantly from the values displayed here, due to many factors, including how long after a folio has been updated that you place orders to update your holdings. RTGs are updated using market data from multiple sources including Zacks Investment Research ( www.zacks.com ), International Data Corporation (IDC) ( www.idc.com ), and other suppliers.
