Note that the UNDERVALUED STOCKS ADVISORY (USA) Stock Index is computed by assuming the purchase of an equal dollar amount of each Recommended stock at its Recommended Purchase Price. Hence, the number of simulated shares purchased for each stock is dependent on its Recommended Purchase Price (i.e., more shares will be purchased for cheaper priced stocks; fewer for more expensive priced stocks). Additionally, our Stock Index does not take into account any recognizable dividend gains that occur for stocks within our portfolio. Hence, the Stock Index return may be slightly higher than stated.
