Equity Risk  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]

Equity Risk. Equity securities, which include common stocks, may decline in value because of changes in the price of a particular holding or a broad stock market decline. Common stock ranks below preferred stock and debt securities in claims for dividends and for assets of the company in a liquidation or bankruptcy. The value of a security may decline for a number of reasons that directly relate to the issuer of a security or broader economic or market events including changes in interest rates.

Small and Micro Capitalization Company Risk

Risk [Text Block]

Small and Micro Capitalization Company Risk. The Fund’s investments in small and micro capitalization companies may be less liquid and their securities’ prices may fluctuate more than those of larger, more established companies. These factors could adversely affect the Fund’s ability to sell such securities at a desirable time and price.

Market Events Risk  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]

Market Events Risk. The Fund is subject to the risk that the securities markets will move down, sometimes rapidly and unpredictably, based on overall economic and other factors, which may negatively affect performance. Disruptive events with geopolitical consequences, including tensions, war, or open conflict between nations, and pandemics, may destabilize various countries’ economies and markets, which may experience increased volatility and reduced liquidity. Policy changes by the Federal Reserve, including with respect to changes in interest rates and inflation, and political circumstances in the U.S. and abroad, and/or other government actors could similarly cause increased volatility in financial markets. Trade barriers and other protectionist trade policies (including those in the U.S.) may also result in market turbulence. Market volatility and reductions in market liquidity may negatively affect issuers worldwide, including issuers in which the Fund invests. Under such circumstances, the Fund may have difficulty liquidating portfolio holdings, particularly at favorable prices. To the extent that the Fund experiences higher levels of redemptions, the Fund may be required to sell portfolio holdings, which may negatively impact the Fund’s NAV. In addition, advancements in technology, including advanced development and increased regulation of artificial intelligence, may adversely impact market movements and liquidity.

Multi-Manager Risk

Risk [Text Block]

Multi-Manager Risk. The success of the Fund’s strategy depends on, among other things, the Adviser’s skill in selecting Subadvisers and the Subadvisers’ skill in executing the relevant strategy. The Subadvisers’ strategies may be out of favor at any time. In addition, because the Subadvisers each make their trading decisions independently, it is possible that Subadvisers may purchase or sell the same security at the same time without aggregating their transactions. This may cause unnecessary brokerage and other expenses. Furthermore, the investment decisions of Subadvisers may not complement each other as expected by the Adviser, in which case the Fund’s performance could be adversely affected.

Management Risk  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]

Management Risk. The Fund’s ability to achieve its investment objective depends on the ability of the Adviser or Subadviser to correctly identify economic trends, especially with regard to accurately forecasting inflationary and deflationary periods.

Value Investment Risk  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]

Value Investment Risk. The Fund may invest in securities the Adviser or Subadviser believes are undervalued. The value of the Fund’s shares may decline, even if stock prices generally are rising because value stocks may fall out of favor with the market or react differently to market, political and economic developments.

Growth Company Risk  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]

Growth Company Risk. The Fund may invest in growth securities that are susceptible to rapid price swings, especially during periods of economic uncertainty. Growth stocks typically have little or no dividend income to cushion the effect of adverse market conditions and may be particularly volatile in the event of earnings disappointments or other financial difficulties experienced by the issuer.

Foreign Investments Risk  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]

Foreign Investments Risk. Foreign investments may be subject to the same risks as domestic investments and to additional risks which include international trade, currency, political, regulatory and diplomatic risks, which may affect their value. Also, foreign securities are subject to the risk that their market price may not reflect the issuer’s condition because there is not sufficient publicly available information about the issuer. Investments in securities of foreign issuers may also be subject to foreign withholding and other taxes.

Depositary Receipts Risk  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]

Depositary Receipts Risk. The risks of depositary receipts include, but are not limited to, fluctuations in foreign currencies and foreign investment risks, such as political and financial instability, less liquidity and greater volatility, lack of uniform accounting, auditing and financial reporting standards and increased price volatility. In addition, depositary receipts may not track the price of the underlying foreign securities, and their value may change materially at times when the U.S. markets are not open for trading. Investments in unsponsored depositary receipts may be subject to additional risks.

Initial Public Offering Risk  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]

Initial Public Offering Risk. The Fund may purchase securities in an IPO. Securities purchased in an IPO may be illiquid, and therefore more difficult to sell promptly at the most favorable price, and may be subject to substantial price volatility due to factors such as unseasoned trading, lack of investor knowledge of the company, and limited operating history.

REIT Risk  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]

REIT Risk. The value of the Fund’s investments in REITs may change in response to changes in the real estate market such as declines in the value of real estate, lack of available capital or financing opportunities, and increases in property taxes or operating costs. REITs typically are subject to management fees and other expenses that are separate from those of the Fund, and the Fund will bear a proportionate share of those fees and expenses.

Exchange Traded Funds Risk  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]

Exchange Traded Funds Risk. An investment in an ETF involves substantially the same risks as investing directly in the underlying securities. An ETF may not achieve its investment objective or execute its investment strategy effectively, which may adversely affect the Fund’s performance. The Fund must pay its pro rata portion of an ETF’s fees and expenses. Shares of an ETF may trade at a premium or discount to the net asset value of its portfolio securities. Trading in an ETF may be halted if the trading in one or more of the ETF’s underlying securities is halted. Only a limited number of institutional investors, known as “authorized participants,” are authorized to purchase and redeem shares from an ETF. As a result, an ETF may trade at a material discount to NAV if authorized participants exit the business or otherwise become unable to process creation and/or redemption orders. In addition, there may be a limited number of market makers and/or liquidity providers in the marketplace such that active trading markets may not develop.

Publicly Traded Partnership Risk

Risk [Text Block]

Publicly Traded Partnership Risk. Investing in publicly traded partnerships (including master limited partnerships) involves risks not typically associated with publicly traded companies. Publicly traded partnerships are exposed to the risks of their underlying assets, which in many cases includes the same types of risks as energy and natural resources companies, such as commodity pricing risk, supply and demand risk and depletion and exploration risk. Publicly traded partnerships are also subject to capital markets risk, which is the risk that they are unable to raise capital to execute their growth strategies. Publicly traded partnerships are also subject to a tax risk that they may lose their tax status as a partnership, which, subject to the application of certain partnership audit rules, do not pay tax at the partnership level, and be subject to tax as a corporation.

Preferred Stock Risk  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]

Preferred Stock Risk. Preferred stock is a class of a capital stock that typically pays dividends at a specified rate. Preferred stock is generally senior to common stock, but subordinate to debt securities, with respect to the payment of dividends and on liquidation of the issuer. The market value of preferred stock generally decreases when interest rates rise and is also affected by the issuer’s ability to make payments on the preferred stock.

Convertible Securities Risk  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]

Convertible Securities Risk. Investments in convertible securities entail some of the risks of both equity and debt securities. The value of convertible securities tends to decline as interest rates rise and, because of the conversion feature, tends to vary with the fluctuations in the market value of the underlying securities or any changes in the issuer’s credit rating. Convertible securities are subject to the risk that the credit rating of the issuer may have an effect on the value of the convertible securities.

Rights and Warrants Risk  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]

Rights and Warrants Risk. Rights and warrants may be considered more speculative than certain other types of investments in that they do not entitle a holder to dividends or voting rights with respect to the underlying securities that may be purchased nor do they represent any rights in the assets of the issuing company. Also, the value of a right or warrant does not necessarily change with the value of the underlying securities and a right or warrant ceases to have value if it is not exercised prior to the expiration date. If a right or warrant held by the Fund is not exercised by the date of its expiration, the Fund would lose the entire purchase price of the right or warrant. The market for warrants and rights may be very limited and there may at times not be a liquid secondary market for warrants and rights.

Derivative Instruments Risk  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]

Derivative Instruments Risk. Derivatives are financial instruments that have a value which depends upon, or is derived from, a reference asset, such as one or more underlying securities, pools of securities, options, futures, indexes or currencies. Derivatives may result in investment exposures that are greater than their cost would suggest; in other words, a small transaction in a derivative may have a large impact on the Fund’s performance. The Fund could experience a loss if derivatives do not perform as anticipated or if the Fund is unable to liquidate a position because of an illiquid secondary market.

Sector Concentration Risk  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]

Sector Concentration Risk: Although the Fund will not concentrate in any particular industry, it may be heavily invested in a particular economic sector. If the Fund focuses on one or a few sectors, its performance is likely to be disproportionately affected by developments that significantly affect that sector, including market, economic, political or regulatory developments. Individual sectors may be more volatile and may perform differently than the broader market. The Fund’s performance may also suffer if a sector does not perform as well as the Adviser expected. Prices of securities in the same sector often change collectively regardless of the merits of individual companies.

 

Health Care Sector Risk. The profitability of companies in the healthcare sector may be affected by government regulations changing costs of medical products and services, limited product lines, and product liability claims, among other things. Many healthcare companies are heavily dependent on patent protection, which may be time consuming and costly, and the expiration of a company’s patent may adversely affect that company’s profitability. Healthcare companies may be thinly capitalized and susceptible to product obsolescence. Many new products in the healthcare sector require significant research and development and may be subject to regulatory approvals, which may be time consuming and costly and with no guarantee that the product will come to market.

 

Industrials Sector Risk. Changes in government regulation, world events and economic conditions may adversely affect companies in the industrials sector. In addition, these companies are at risk for environmental and product liability damage claims. Commodity price volatility, changes in exchange rates, imposition of import controls, increased competition, depletion of resources, technological developments and labor relations could adversely affect the companies in this sector.

Indexed Securities and Derivatives Risk  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]

Indexed Securities and Derivatives Risk. If a security or derivative is linked to the performance of an index, it may be subject to the risks associated with changes in that index. The value of such security or derivative will fluctuate based on changes in the value of the index to which the security or derivative is linked.

Futures Contracts Risk  
Prospectus [Line Items]  
Risk [Text Block]

Futures Contracts Risk. The primary risks associated with the use of futures contracts are (i) the imperfect correlation between the price of the contract and the change in value of the underlying asset; (ii) possible lack of a liquid secondary market for a futures contract and the resulting inability to close such a contract when desired; (iii) losses caused by unanticipated market movements, which are potentially unlimited; (iv) the inability to predict correctly the direction of securities prices, interest rates, currency exchange rates and other economic factors; (v) the possibility that the counterparty to a contract will default in the performance of its obligations; and (vi) if the Fund has insufficient cash, it

may have to sell investments to meet daily variation margin requirements on a futures contract, and the Fund may have to sell investments at a time when it may be disadvantageous to do so.
