Frequently Asked Questions
Q1: Why did you make these changes?
WMT-III is an equally-weighted portfolio that is rebalanced each quarter. From time to time we change the Advisors in the portfolio based on our macroeconomic view and the potential opportunities/risks that we see in the markets. Fort is a trend follower who participates in a diversified basket of commodities. Fort has a modest correlation to the other Advisors and an attractive historical risk return profile going back to 1993.

Investments in commodities/futures, options on them, and managed futures are not appropriate for all investors, as the risk of loss is substantial. Therefore, only risk or hedge capital should be invested in these securities.
Alternative investments carry specific investor qualifications which can include high income and net-worth requirements as well as relatively high investment minimums. They are complex investment vehicles, which generally have high fixed and variable costs and substantial risks. The high expenses often associated with these investments must be offset by trading profits and other income. They tend to be more volatile than other types of investments and present an increased risk of investment loss. There may also be a lack of transparency as to the underlying assets. Additionally, there may be no secondary market for alternative investment interests and transferability may be limited or even prohibited. Other risks may apply as well, depending on the specific investment product. Please carefully review the Private Placement Memorandum or other offering documents for complete information regarding terms, including all applicable fees, as well as other factors you should consider before investing.
