The economy remained resilient, underpinned by healthy consumer spending. While the Federal Reserve cut interest rates in late 2025, it held steady through July 2026 as economic activity remained strong. Fixed income markets also delivered solid returns, aided by tight credit spreads. However, long-term Treasury yields moved higher as oil prices rose amid Middle East tensions, renewing inflation concerns.</div><div style="margin-top: 0; margin-right: 0; margin-bottom: 4.0032pt; margin-left: 0; font-size: 9pt; font-weight: normal; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: 'Arial'; line-height: 11pt; letter-spacing: -0.04pt;">Within the fund, most sectors were positive contributors with financials, healthcare and information technology being particularly additive. Energy and materials were also among the strongest contributors. Geographically, companies based in the U.S., Canada and Taiwan were strong drivers of returns. The fund’s bond allocation also added value, while supporting its income objective and maintaining a measure of stability when equity markets were volatile.</div><div style="margin-top: 0; margin-right: 0; margin-bottom: 4.0032pt; margin-left: 0; font-size: 9pt; font-weight: normal; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: 'Arial'; line-height: 11pt; letter-spacing: -0.04pt;">In terms of detractors, communication services lagged during the period. Also, investments in companies based in Denmark, India and Finland, detracted from the broader portfolio.</div> <img alt="Fund Performance - Growth of 10K" src="chartimages_1674834.jpg" style="width: 550pt;"/> <div style="margin-top: 0;

The economy remained resilient, underpinned by healthy consumer spending. While the Federal Reserve cut interest rates in late 2025, it held steady through July 2026 as economic activity remained strong. Fixed income markets also delivered solid returns, aided by tight credit spreads. However, long-term Treasury yields moved higher as oil prices rose amid Middle East tensions, renewing inflation concerns.</div><div style="margin-top: 0; margin-right: 0; margin-bottom: 4.0032pt; margin-left: 0; font-size: 9pt; font-weight: normal; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: 'Arial'; line-height: 11pt; letter-spacing: -0.04pt;">Within the fund, most sectors were positive contributors with financials, healthcare and information technology being particularly additive. Energy and materials were also among the strongest contributors. Geographically, companies based in the U.S., Canada and Taiwan were strong drivers of returns. The fund’s bond allocation also added value, while supporting its income objective and maintaining a measure of stability when equity markets were volatile.</div><div style="margin-top: 0; margin-right: 0; margin-bottom: 4.0032pt; margin-left: 0; font-size: 9pt; font-weight: normal; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: 'Arial'; line-height: 11pt; letter-spacing: -0.04pt;">In terms of detractors, communication services lagged during the period. Also, investments in companies based in Denmark, India and Finland, detracted from the broader portfolio.</div> <img alt="Fund Performance - Growth of 10K" src="chartimages_1674130.jpg" style="width: 550pt;"/> <div style="margin-top: 0;

The economy remained resilient, underpinned by healthy consumer spending. While the Federal Reserve cut interest rates in late 2025, it held steady through July 2026 as economic activity remained strong. Fixed income markets also delivered solid returns, aided by tight credit spreads. However, long-term Treasury yields moved higher as oil prices rose amid Middle East tensions, renewing inflation concerns.</div><div style="margin-top: 0; margin-right: 0; margin-bottom: 4.0032pt; margin-left: 0; font-size: 9pt; font-weight: normal; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: 'Arial'; line-height: 11pt; letter-spacing: -0.04pt;">Within the fund, most sectors were positive contributors with financials, healthcare and information technology being particularly additive. Energy and materials were also among the strongest contributors. Geographically, companies based in the U.S., Canada and Taiwan were strong drivers of returns. The fund’s bond allocation also added value, while supporting its income objective and maintaining a measure of stability when equity markets were volatile.</div><div style="margin-top: 0; margin-right: 0; margin-bottom: 4.0032pt; margin-left: 0; font-size: 9pt; font-weight: normal; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: 'Arial'; line-height: 11pt; letter-spacing: -0.04pt;">In terms of detractors, communication services lagged during the period.

The economy remained resilient, underpinned by healthy consumer spending. While the Federal Reserve cut interest rates in late 2025, it held steady through July 2026 as economic activity remained strong. Fixed income markets also delivered solid returns, aided by tight credit spreads. However, long-term Treasury yields moved higher as oil prices rose amid Middle East tensions, renewing inflation concerns.</div><div style="margin-top: 0; margin-right: 0; margin-bottom: 4.0032pt; margin-left: 0; font-size: 9pt; font-weight: normal; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: 'Arial'; line-height: 11pt; letter-spacing: -0.04pt;">Within the fund, most sectors were positive contributors with financials, healthcare and information technology being particularly additive. Energy and materials were also among the strongest contributors. Geographically, companies based in the U.S., Canada and Taiwan were strong drivers of returns. The fund’s bond allocation also added value, while supporting its income objective and maintaining a measure of stability when equity markets were volatile.</div><div style="margin-top: 0; margin-right: 0; margin-bottom: 4.0032pt; margin-left: 0; font-size: 9pt; font-weight: normal; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: 'Arial'; line-height: 11pt; letter-spacing: -0.04pt;">In terms of detractors, communication services lagged during the period.

The economy remained resilient, underpinned by healthy consumer spending. While the Federal Reserve cut interest rates in late 2025, it held steady through July 2026 as economic activity remained strong. Fixed income markets also delivered solid returns, aided by tight credit spreads. However, long-term Treasury yields moved higher as oil prices rose amid Middle East tensions, renewing inflation concerns.</div><div style="margin-top: 0; margin-right: 0; margin-bottom: 4.0032pt; margin-left: 0; font-size: 9pt; font-weight: normal; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: 'Arial'; line-height: 11pt; letter-spacing: -0.04pt;">Within the fund, most sectors were positive contributors with financials, healthcare and information technology being particularly additive. Energy and materials were also among the strongest contributors. Geographically, companies based in the U.S., Canada and Taiwan were strong drivers of returns.

The economy remained resilient, underpinned by healthy consumer spending. While the Federal Reserve cut interest rates in late 2025, it held steady through July 2026 as economic activity remained strong. Fixed income markets also delivered solid returns, aided by tight credit spreads. However, long-term Treasury yields moved higher as oil prices rose amid Middle East tensions, renewing inflation concerns.</div><div style="margin-top: 0; margin-right: 0; margin-bottom: 4.0032pt; margin-left: 0; font-size: 9pt; font-weight: normal; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: 'Arial'; line-height: 11pt; letter-spacing: -0.04pt;">Within the fund, most sectors were positive contributors with financials, healthcare and information technology being particularly additive. Energy and materials were also among the strongest contributors. Geographically, companies based in the U.S., Canada and Taiwan were strong drivers of returns. The fund’s bond allocation also added value, while supporting its income objective and maintaining a measure of stability when equity markets were volatile.</div><div style="margin-top: 0; margin-right: 0; margin-bottom: 4.0032pt; margin-left: 0; font-size: 9pt; font-weight: normal; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: 'Arial'; line-height: 11pt; letter-spacing: -0.04pt;">In terms of detractors, communication services lagged during the period. Also, investments in companies based in Denmark, India and Finland, detracted from the broader portfolio.</div> <img alt="Fund Performance - Growth of 10K" src="chartimages_1674262.jpg" style="width: 550pt;"/> <div style="margin-top: 0;

The economy remained resilient, underpinned by healthy consumer spending. While the Federal Reserve cut interest rates in late 2025, it held steady through July 2026 as economic activity remained strong. Fixed income markets also delivered solid returns, aided by tight credit spreads. However, long-term Treasury yields moved higher as oil prices rose amid Middle East tensions, renewing inflation concerns.</div><div style="margin-top: 0; margin-right: 0; margin-bottom: 4.0032pt; margin-left: 0; font-size: 9pt; font-weight: normal; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: 'Arial'; line-height: 11pt; letter-spacing: -0.04pt;">Within the fund, most sectors were positive contributors with financials, healthcare and information technology being particularly additive. Energy and materials were also among the strongest contributors. Geographically, companies based in the U.S., Canada and Taiwan were strong drivers of returns. The fund’s bond allocation also added value, while supporting its income objective and maintaining a measure of stability when equity markets were volatile.</div><div style="margin-top: 0; margin-right: 0; margin-bottom: 4.0032pt; margin-left: 0; font-size: 9pt; font-weight: normal; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: 'Arial'; line-height: 11pt; letter-spacing: -0.04pt;">In terms of detractors, communication services lagged during the period. Also, investments in companies based in Denmark, India and Finland, detracted from the broader portfolio.</div> <img alt="Fund Performance - Growth of 10K" src="chartimages_1674306.jpg" style="width: 550pt;"/> <div style="margin-top: 0;

The economy remained resilient, underpinned by healthy consumer spending. While the Federal Reserve cut interest rates in late 2025, it held steady through July 2026 as economic activity remained strong. Fixed income markets also delivered solid returns, aided by tight credit spreads. However, long-term Treasury yields moved higher as oil prices rose amid Middle East tensions, renewing inflation concerns.</div><div style="margin-top: 0; margin-right: 0; margin-bottom: 4.0032pt; margin-left: 0; font-size: 9pt; font-weight: normal; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: 'Arial'; line-height: 11pt; letter-spacing: -0.04pt;">Within the fund, most sectors were positive contributors with financials, healthcare and information technology being particularly additive. Energy and materials were also among the strongest contributors. Geographically, companies based in the U.S., Canada and Taiwan were strong drivers of returns. The fund’s bond allocation also added value, while supporting its income objective and maintaining a measure of stability when equity markets were volatile.</div><div style="margin-top: 0; margin-right: 0; margin-bottom: 4.0032pt; margin-left: 0; font-size: 9pt; font-weight: normal; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: 'Arial'; line-height: 11pt; letter-spacing: -0.04pt;">In terms of detractors, communication services lagged during the period.

The economy remained resilient, underpinned by healthy consumer spending. While the Federal Reserve cut interest rates in late 2025, it held steady through July 2026 as economic activity remained strong. Fixed income markets also delivered solid returns, aided by tight credit spreads. However, long-term Treasury yields moved higher as oil prices rose amid Middle East tensions, renewing inflation concerns.</div><div style="margin-top: 0; margin-right: 0; margin-bottom: 4.0032pt; margin-left: 0; font-size: 9pt; font-weight: normal; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: 'Arial'; line-height: 11pt; letter-spacing: -0.04pt;">Within the fund, most sectors were positive contributors with financials, healthcare and information technology being particularly additive. Energy and materials were also among the strongest contributors. Geographically, companies based in the U.S., Canada and Taiwan were strong drivers of returns. The fund’s bond allocation also added value, while supporting its income objective and maintaining a measure of stability when equity markets were volatile.</div><div style="margin-top: 0; margin-right: 0; margin-bottom: 4.0032pt; margin-left: 0; font-size: 9pt; font-weight: normal; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: 'Arial'; line-height: 11pt; letter-spacing: -0.04pt;">In terms of detractors, communication services lagged during the period. Also, investments in companies based in Denmark, India and Finland, detracted from the broader portfolio.</div> <img alt="Fund Performance - Growth of 10K" src="chartimages_1674966.jpg" style="width: 550pt;"/> <div style="margin-top: 0;

The economy remained resilient, underpinned by healthy consumer spending. While the Federal Reserve cut interest rates in late 2025, it held steady through July 2026 as economic activity remained strong. Fixed income markets also delivered solid returns, aided by tight credit spreads. However, long-term Treasury yields moved higher as oil prices rose amid Middle East tensions, renewing inflation concerns.</div><div style="margin-top: 0; margin-right: 0; margin-bottom: 4.0032pt; margin-left: 0; font-size: 9pt; font-weight: normal; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: 'Arial'; line-height: 11pt; letter-spacing: -0.04pt;">Within the fund, most sectors were positive contributors with financials, healthcare and information technology being particularly additive. Energy and materials were also among the strongest contributors. Geographically, companies based in the U.S., Canada and Taiwan were strong drivers of returns. The fund’s bond allocation also added value, while supporting its income objective and maintaining a measure of stability when equity markets were volatile.</div><div style="margin-top: 0; margin-right: 0; margin-bottom: 4.0032pt; margin-left: 0; font-size: 9pt; font-weight: normal; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: 'Arial'; line-height: 11pt; letter-spacing: -0.04pt;">In terms of detractors, communication services lagged during the period. Also, investments in companies based in Denmark, India and Finland, detracted from the broader portfolio.</div> <img alt="Fund Performance - Growth of 10K" src="chartimages_1675010.jpg" style="width: 550pt;"/> <div style="margin-top: 0;

The economy remained resilient, underpinned by healthy consumer spending. While the Federal Reserve cut interest rates in late 2025, it held steady through July 2026 as economic activity remained strong. Fixed income markets also delivered solid returns, aided by tight credit spreads. However, long-term Treasury yields moved higher as oil prices rose amid Middle East tensions, renewing inflation concerns.</div><div style="margin-top: 0; margin-right: 0; margin-bottom: 4.0032pt; margin-left: 0; font-size: 9pt; font-weight: normal; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: 'Arial'; line-height: 11pt; letter-spacing: -0.04pt;">Within the fund, most sectors were positive contributors with financials, healthcare and information technology being particularly additive. Energy and materials were also among the strongest contributors. Geographically, companies based in the U.S., Canada and Taiwan were strong drivers of returns. The fund’s bond allocation also added value, while supporting its income objective and maintaining a measure of stability when equity markets were volatile.</div><div style="margin-top: 0; margin-right: 0; margin-bottom: 4.0032pt; margin-left: 0; font-size: 9pt; font-weight: normal; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: 'Arial'; line-height: 11pt; letter-spacing: -0.04pt;">In terms of detractors, communication services lagged during the period.

The economy remained resilient, underpinned by healthy consumer spending. While the Federal Reserve cut interest rates in late 2025, it held steady through July 2026 as economic activity remained strong. Fixed income markets also delivered solid returns, aided by tight credit spreads. However, long-term Treasury yields moved higher as oil prices rose amid Middle East tensions, renewing inflation concerns.</div><div style="margin-top: 0; margin-right: 0; margin-bottom: 4.0032pt; margin-left: 0; font-size: 9pt; font-weight: normal; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: 'Arial'; line-height: 11pt; letter-spacing: -0.04pt;">Within the fund, most sectors were positive contributors with financials, healthcare and information technology being particularly additive. Energy and materials were also among the strongest contributors. Geographically, companies based in the U.S., Canada and Taiwan were strong drivers of returns. The fund’s bond allocation also added value, while supporting its income objective and maintaining a measure of stability when equity markets were volatile.</div><div style="margin-top: 0; margin-right: 0; margin-bottom: 4.0032pt; margin-left: 0; font-size: 9pt; font-weight: normal; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: 'Arial'; line-height: 11pt; letter-spacing: -0.04pt;">In terms of detractors, communication services lagged during the period.

The economy remained resilient, underpinned by healthy consumer spending. While the Federal Reserve cut interest rates in late 2025, it held steady through July 2026 as economic activity remained strong. Fixed income markets also delivered solid returns, aided by tight credit spreads. However, long-term Treasury yields moved higher as oil prices rose amid Middle East tensions, renewing inflation concerns.</div><div style="margin-top: 0; margin-right: 0; margin-bottom: 4.0032pt; margin-left: 0; font-size: 9pt; font-weight: normal; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: 'Arial'; line-height: 11pt; letter-spacing: -0.04pt;">Within the fund, most sectors were positive contributors with financials, healthcare and information technology being particularly additive. Energy and materials were also among the strongest contributors. Geographically, companies based in the U.S., Canada and Taiwan were strong drivers of returns. The fund’s bond allocation also added value, while supporting its income objective and maintaining a measure of stability when equity markets were volatile.</div><div style="margin-top: 0; margin-right: 0; margin-bottom: 4.0032pt; margin-left: 0; font-size: 9pt; font-weight: normal; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: 'Arial'; line-height: 11pt; letter-spacing: -0.04pt;">In terms of detractors, communication services lagged during the period. Also, investments in companies based in Denmark, India and Finland, detracted from the broader portfolio.</div> <img alt="Fund Performance - Growth of 10K" src="chartimages_1674702.jpg" style="width: 550pt;"/> <div style="margin-top: 0;

The economy remained resilient, underpinned by healthy consumer spending. While the Federal Reserve cut interest rates in late 2025, it held steady through July 2026 as economic activity remained strong. Fixed income markets also delivered solid returns, aided by tight credit spreads. However, long-term Treasury yields moved higher as oil prices rose amid Middle East tensions, renewing inflation concerns.</div><div style="margin-top: 0; margin-right: 0; margin-bottom: 4.0032pt; margin-left: 0; font-size: 9pt; font-weight: normal; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: 'Arial'; line-height: 11pt; letter-spacing: -0.04pt;">Within the fund, most sectors were positive contributors with financials, healthcare and information technology being particularly additive. Energy and materials were also among the strongest contributors. Geographically, companies based in the U.S., Canada and Taiwan were strong drivers of returns. The fund’s bond allocation also added value, while supporting its income objective and maintaining a measure of stability when equity markets were volatile.</div><div style="margin-top: 0; margin-right: 0; margin-bottom: 4.0032pt; margin-left: 0; font-size: 9pt; font-weight: normal; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: 'Arial'; line-height: 11pt; letter-spacing: -0.04pt;">In terms of detractors, communication services lagged during the period.

The economy remained resilient, underpinned by healthy consumer spending. While the Federal Reserve cut interest rates in late 2025, it held steady through July 2026 as economic activity remained strong. Fixed income markets also delivered solid returns, aided by tight credit spreads. However, long-term Treasury yields moved higher as oil prices rose amid Middle East tensions, renewing inflation concerns.</div><div style="margin-top: 0; margin-right: 0; margin-bottom: 4.0032pt; margin-left: 0; font-size: 9pt; font-weight: normal; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: 'Arial'; line-height: 11pt; letter-spacing: -0.04pt;">Within the fund, most sectors were positive contributors with financials, healthcare and information technology being particularly additive. Energy and materials were also among the strongest contributors. Geographically, companies based in the U.S., Canada and Taiwan were strong drivers of returns. The fund’s bond allocation also added value, while supporting its income objective and maintaining a measure of stability when equity markets were volatile.</div><div style="margin-top: 0; margin-right: 0; margin-bottom: 4.0032pt; margin-left: 0; font-size: 9pt; font-weight: normal; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: 'Arial'; line-height: 11pt; letter-spacing: -0.04pt;">In terms of detractors, communication services lagged during the period.

The economy remained resilient, underpinned by healthy consumer spending. While the Federal Reserve cut interest rates in late 2025, it held steady through July 2026 as economic activity remained strong. Fixed income markets also delivered solid returns, aided by tight credit spreads. However, long-term Treasury yields moved higher as oil prices rose amid Middle East tensions, renewing inflation concerns.</div><div style="margin-top: 0; margin-right: 0; margin-bottom: 4.0032pt; margin-left: 0; font-size: 9pt; font-weight: normal; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: 'Arial'; line-height: 11pt; letter-spacing: -0.04pt;">Within the fund, most sectors were positive contributors with financials, healthcare and information technology being particularly additive. Energy and materials were also among the strongest contributors. Geographically, companies based in the U.S., Canada and Taiwan were strong drivers of returns. The fund’s bond allocation also added value, while supporting its income objective and maintaining a measure of stability when equity markets were volatile.</div><div style="margin-top: 0; margin-right: 0; margin-bottom: 4.0032pt; margin-left: 0; font-size: 9pt; font-weight: normal; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: 'Arial'; line-height: 11pt; letter-spacing: -0.04pt;">In terms of detractors, communication services lagged during the period.

The economy remained resilient, underpinned by healthy consumer spending. While the Federal Reserve cut interest rates in late 2025, it held steady through July 2026 as economic activity remained strong. Fixed income markets also delivered solid returns, aided by tight credit spreads. However, long-term Treasury yields moved higher as oil prices rose amid Middle East tensions, renewing inflation concerns.</div><div style="margin-top: 0; margin-right: 0; margin-bottom: 4.0032pt; margin-left: 0; font-size: 9pt; font-weight: normal; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: 'Arial'; line-height: 11pt; letter-spacing: -0.04pt;">Within the fund, most sectors were positive contributors with financials, healthcare and information technology being particularly additive. Energy and materials were also among the strongest contributors. Geographically, companies based in the U.S., Canada and Taiwan were strong drivers of returns. The fund’s bond allocation also added value, while supporting its income objective and maintaining a measure of stability when equity markets were volatile.</div><div style="margin-top: 0; margin-right: 0; margin-bottom: 4.0032pt; margin-left: 0; font-size: 9pt; font-weight: normal; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: 'Arial'; line-height: 11pt; letter-spacing: -0.04pt;">In terms of detractors, communication services lagged during the period.

The economy remained resilient, underpinned by healthy consumer spending. While the Federal Reserve cut interest rates in late 2025, it held steady through July 2026 as economic activity remained strong. Fixed income markets also delivered solid returns, aided by tight credit spreads. However, long-term Treasury yields moved higher as oil prices rose amid Middle East tensions, renewing inflation concerns.</div><div style="margin-top: 0; margin-right: 0; margin-bottom: 4.0032pt; margin-left: 0; font-size: 9pt; font-weight: normal; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: 'Arial'; line-height: 11pt; letter-spacing: -0.04pt;">Within the fund, most sectors were positive contributors with financials, healthcare and information technology being particularly additive. Energy and materials were also among the strongest contributors. Geographically, companies based in the U.S., Canada and Taiwan were strong drivers of returns. The fund’s bond allocation also added value, while supporting its income objective and maintaining a measure of stability when equity markets were volatile.</div><div style="margin-top: 0; margin-right: 0; margin-bottom: 4.0032pt; margin-left: 0; font-size: 9pt; font-weight: normal; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: 'Arial'; line-height: 11pt; letter-spacing: -0.04pt;">In terms of detractors, communication services lagged during the period.
