The following is a summary discussion of the principal risks of investing in the Fund. There can be no guarantee that the Adviser’s strategy will achieve its intended results or that the Fund will meet its investment objective or that the performance of the Fund will be positive for any period of time.
You could lose money by investing in the Fund. Although the Fund seeks to preserve the value of your investment at $1.00 per share, it cannot guarantee it will do so. An investment in the Fund is not a bank deposit or obligation, is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency and may lose value. The Adviser is not required to reimburse the Fund for losses, and you should not expect that the Adviser will provide financial support for the Fund at any time, including during periods of market stress.
The Fund is subject to the following principal risks, more fully described in “Risk Factors” in this Prospectus.

Cash and Cash Equivalents Risk. The Fund may have significant investments in cash or cash equivalents. When a substantial portion of a portfolio is held in cash or cash equivalents, there is the risk that the value of the cash account, including interest, will not keep pace with inflation, thus reducing purchasing power over time. |

Fixed-Income Securities Risk. When the Fund invests in fixed-income securities, the value of an investment in the Fund will fluctuate with changes in interest rates. Typically, an increase in interest rates causes a decline in the value of fixed-income securities or derivatives owned by the Fund. In general, the market price of fixed-income securities with longer maturities will increase or decrease more in response to changes in interest rates than shorter term securities. Other risk factors include credit risk (the debtor may default). These risks could affect the value of a particular investment by the Fund, possibly causing the Fund’s share price and total return to be reduced and fluctuate more than other types of investments. |
| |
○ |
Credit Risk. The issuer of bonds or other debt securities may be unable or unwilling, or may be perceived as unable or unwilling, to make timely interest or principal payments or otherwise honor its obligations. |
| |
○ |
Interest Rate Risk. During periods of rising interest rates, the Fund’s yield (and the market value of its securities) will tend to be lower than prevailing market rates; in periods of falling interest rates, the Fund’s yield (and the market value of its securities) will tend to be higher. Securities with longer maturities tend to be more sensitive to changes in interest rates, causing them to be more volatile than securities with shorter maturities. Securities with shorter maturities tend to provide lower returns and be less volatile than securities with longer maturities. If interest rates increase, the Fund’s yield may not increase proportionately, and the maturities of fixed-income securities that have the ability to be prepaid or called by the issuer may be extended. |

Investment and Market Risk. The prices of, and the income generated by, the bonds and other securities held by the Fund may decline, sometimes rapidly or unpredictably, due to various factors, including events or conditions affecting the general economy or particular industries; overall market changes; local, regional or global political, social or economic instability; governmental or governmental agency responses to economic conditions; currency exchange rate, interest rate and commodity price fluctuations; market disruptions caused by local or regional events such as war, acts of terrorism, natural disasters, climate-change or climate-related events, the spread of infectious illness (including epidemics and pandemics) or other public health issues, tariffs and trade wars, recessions or other events or adverse investor sentiment. These risks may be magnified if certain events or developments adversely interrupt the global supply chain; in these and other circumstances, such risks might affect companies worldwide due to increasingly interconnected global economies and financial markets. |

| Management Risk [Member] |

● |
Management Risk. The Adviser actively manages the Fund’s investments. Consequently, the Fund is subject to the risk that the methods and analysis employed by the Adviser in this process may not produce the desired results. This could cause the Fund to lose value or its investment results to lag relevant benchmarks or other funds with similar objectives. |
|
| Money Market Risk [Member] |
|
| Prospectus [Line Items] |
|
| Risk [Text Block] |
| |
● |
Money Market Risk. The Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) has adopted amendments to the rules that govern money market funds. These amendments may affect the Fund’s investment strategies, performance, yield, expenses, operations and continued viability. Although the Fund seeks to preserve the value of your investment at $1.00 per share, the share price could fall below $1.00. The credit quality of the Fund’s holdings can change rapidly in certain markets, and the default of a single holding could have an adverse impact on the Fund’s share price. The Fund’s share price can also be negatively affected during periods of high redemption pressures, illiquid markets, and/or significant market volatility. |
|
| Net Asset Value Risk [Member] |
|

| |
● |
Net Asset Value Risk. The Fund may not be able to maintain a stable net asset value (“NAV”). If any money market fund fails to maintain a stable NAV (or if there is a perceived threat of such a failure), other money market funds, including the Fund, could be subject to increased redemption activity, which could adversely affect the Fund’s NAV. Shareholders of the Fund should not rely on or expect the Adviser or an affiliate to purchase distressed assets from the Fund, make capital infusions into the Fund, enter into capital support agreements with the Fund or take other actions to help the Fund maintain a stable NAV. |
|
| Repurchase Agreements Risk [Member] |

● |
Repurchase Agreements Risk. Repurchase agreements involve the risk that the buyer of the securities sold by the Fund might be unable to deliver the securities when the Fund seeks to repurchase them and may be unable to replace the securities or only at a higher cost. If the buyer of securities under a repurchase agreement files for bankruptcy or becomes insolvent, the buyer may receive an extension of time to determine whether to enforce the Fund’s obligation to repurchase the securities, and the Fund’s use of the proceeds of the repurchase agreement may be severely restricted during that extension period. |

| U S Government Securities Risk [Member] |

● |
U.S. Government Securities Risk. Securities backed by the U.S. Treasury, or the full faith and credit of the U.S. government are guaranteed only as to the timely payment of interest and principal when held to maturity. Accordingly, the current market values for these securities will fluctuate with changes in interest rates. Securities issued by government-sponsored entities and federal agencies and instrumentalities that are not backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. government are neither issued nor guaranteed by the U.S. government. |
