Join Shelton Capital for a dynamic discussion on the ever-growing option-based strategy market and why they can make sense in today’s market environment.

SEPI Fund Disclosures

An investor should consider the investment objectives, risks, charges, and expenses of the Fund carefully before investing. To obtain a prospectus containing this and other information, please call (800) 955-9988 or visit www.sheltoncap.com/sepi. Read the prospectus carefully before investing.

Exchange Traded Funds (“ETFs”) are subject to the possible loss of principal. The value of the ETFs will fluctuate with the value of the underlying securities. ETF Shares may trade at prices above or below NAV. Liquidity isn’t guaranteed, and trading may be halted due to market-wide or security-specific events, delisting, or exchange actions.

The Fund is new with a limited operating history.

The value of the Fund’s equity holdings may decline, sometimes unpredictably, due to broader economic, political, or market conditions not specific to individual companies. Because the Fund is primarily invested in U.S. stocks, its value will fluctuate with overall market movements and may decline during market downturns, potentially resulting in losses. The Fund’s use of call and put options can limit upside potential and increase costs, particularly if market movements render the options ineffective or result in expired contracts without value.

Investments in derivatives may be riskier than other types of investments. They may be more sensitive to changes in economic or market conditions than other types of investments. Many derivatives create leverage, which could lead to greater volatility and losses that significantly exceed the original investment. Positions in equity options can reduce equity market risk, but can limit the opportunity to profit from an increase in the market value of stocks in exchange for upfront cash as the time of selling the call option. Unusual market conditions or the lack of a ready market for any particular option at a specific time may reduce the effectiveness of option strategies and could result in losses.

Cash flow is the money generated or available to distribute to shareholders. Distributions may include option premium, ordinary dividends, interest income, capital gains, or return of capital. Distributions may coincide with a decline in NAV. Distribution levels may vary and no minimum distribution amount can be guaranteed.

INVESTMENTS ARE NOT FDIC INSURED OR BANK GUARANTEED AND MAY LOSE VALUE.
