Earnings predictability is the standard deviation of the current year's consensus estimates of EPS over the mean estimate, the higher the number, the less stable or predictable the earnings. The effective tax rate is total income taxes/annual pre-tax income. Price/Earnings Ratio is forward-12-month consensus estimates. Thomson Financial LTG EPS growth is forward five years. PE/G is forward 1 year.

CPIIn economics, a Consumer Price Index (CPI, also retail price index) is a statistical measure of a weighted average of prices of a specified set of goods and
services purchased by wage earners in urban areas. It is a price index which tracks the prices of a specified set of consumer goods and services, providing a measure of inflation. The CPI is a fixed quantity price index and a sort of cost-of-living index. The CPI can be used to track changes in prices of all goods and services purchased for consumption by urban households. User fees (such as water and sewer service) and sales and excise taxes paid by the consumer are also included. Income taxes and investment items (like Stks, bonds, life insurance, and homes) are not included.
Dow Jones AIG Commodity Total Return IndexThe Dow Jones - AIG Commodity Total Return Index is based on the Dow Jones AIG Commodity Index, which is composed of futures contracts on 19 physical commodities. The commodities in the index are traded on U.S. exchanges, with the exception of aluminum, nickel and zinc, which trade on the London Metal Exchange (LME). The Total Return Index reflects the return on fully collateralized positions in the underlying commodity future.
Dow Jones Industrial Average
The most widely used indicator of the overall condition of the stock market, a price-weighted average of 30 actively traded blue chip Stks, primarily industrials. The 30 Stks are chosen by the editors of the Wall Street Journal (which is published by Dow Jones & Company), a practice that dates back tothe beginning of the century. The Dow was officially started by Charles Dow in 1896, at which time it consisted of only 11 Stks. The Dow is computed using a price-weighted indexing system, rather than the more common market cap-weighted indexing system. Simply put, the editors at WSJ add up the prices of all the Stks and then divide by the number of Stks in the index. (in actuality, the divisor is much higher today in order to account for stock splits that have occurred in the past.)
Dow Jones Wilshire 5000
Consists of nearly 5000 common equity securities, covering all Stks in the U.S. for which daily pricing is available. The value-weighted total return index is adjusted for cash dividends which are reinvested at the end of each month. The Wilshire 5000 total market index measures the performance of all U.S. headquartered equity securities with readily available price data. Over 7,000 capitalization-weighted security returns are used to adjust the index.
Dow Jones Wilshire Small Value
Measures small cap Stks that exhibit value characteristics. This is a float adjusted, market cap-weighted index including a selection of securities from the Dow Jones Wilshire U.S. Small-Cap index that meet the Dow Jones Wilshire criteria for value. The index is an excellent way to evaluate this sector of the market and to gauge the performance of managers focusing on this particular style. An equal weighting of this index, along with the Dow Jones Wilshire U.S. Small-Cap Growth index, results in approximately the same return as the Dow Jones Wilshire U.S. Small-Cap index.
Dow Jones Wilshire Large Growth
Measures large cap Stks that exhibit growth characteristics. This is a float adjusted, market cap weighted index including a selection of securities from the Dow Jones Wilshire U.S. Large-Cap index that meet the Dow Jones Wilshire criteria for growth. The index is an excellent way to evaluate this sector of the market and to gauge the performance of managers focusing on this particular style. An equal weighting of this index, along with the Dow Jones Wilshire U.S. Large-Cap Value Index, results in approximately the same return as the Dow Jones Wilshire U.S. Large-Cap Index.

Hedge Fund Research Index – Equity Hedge Index (Hfri)
HFRI Equity Hedge Index represents performance of a universe of hedge funds that employ core holding strategies of long equities hedged at all times with short sales of Stks and/or stock index options. The hedge funds in this index commonly employ a variety of strategies and some employ leverage. Relatively conservative funds mitigate market risk by maintaining market exposure from zero to 100 percent. Relatively aggressive funds may magnify market risk by exceeding 100 percent exposure and, in some instances, maintain a short exposure. In addition to equities, some funds in this index may have limited assets invested in other types of securities
Ibbotson Long Government
The total returns from 1977-present are constructed with data from The Wall Street Journal. The data from 1926-1976 are obtained from the Government Bond File at the Center for Research in Security Prices (CRSP) at the University of Chicago Graduate School of Business. To the greatest extent possible, a one bond portfolio with a term of approximately 20 years and a reasonably current coupon-whose returns did not reflect potential tax benefits, impaired negotiability, or special redemption or call privileges-was used each year. Where "flower" bonds (tenderable to the Treasury at par in payment of estate taxes) had to be used, the term of the bond was assumed to be a simple average of the maturity and the first call dates minus the current date. The bond was "held" for the calendar year and returns were computed.

Nasdaq Composite
The NASDAQ Composite Index measures all NASDAQ domestic and non-U.S. based common Stks listed on the NASDAQ Stock Market. The Index is market-value weighted. This means that each company's security affects the Index in proportion to it's market value. The market value, the last sale price multiplied by total shares outstanding, is calculated throughout the trading day, and is related to the total value of the Index. Today the NASDAQ Composite includes over 5,000 companies, more than most other stock market indexes. Because it is so broad-based, the Composite is one of the most widely followed and quoted major market indexes.

International investing entails greater risk, as well as greater potential rewards compared to U.S. investing. These risks include political and economic uncertainties of foreign countries as well as the risk of currency fluctuations. These risks are magnified in countries with emerging markets, since these countries may have relatively unstable governments and less established markets and economies.
Alternative investments which may be referenced in this report, including private equity funds, real estate funds, hedge funds, managed futures funds, and funds of hedge funds, private equity, and managed futures funds, are speculative and entail significant risks that can include losses due to leveraging or other speculative investment practices, lack of liquidity, volatility of returns, restrictions on transferring interests in a fund, potential lack of diversification, absence and/or delay of information regarding valuations and pricing, complex tax structures and delays in tax reporting, less regulation and higher fees than mutual funds and risks associated with the operations, personnel and processes of the advisor.
Investing in commodities entails significant risks. Commodity prices may be affected by a variety of factors at any time, including but not limited to, (i) changes in supply and demand relationships, (ii) governmental programs and policies, (iii) national and international political and economic events, war and terrorist events, (iv) changes in interest and exchange rates, (v) trading activities in commodities and related contracts, (vi) pestilence, technological change and weather, and (vii) the price volatility of a commodity. In addition, the commodities markets are subject to temporary distortions or other disruptions due to various factors, including lack of liquidity, participation of speculators and government intervention.

Physical precious metals are non-regulated products. Precious metals are speculative investments, which may experience short-term and long term price volatility. The value of precious metals investments may fluctuate and may appreciate or decline, depending on market conditions. If sold in a declining market, the price you receive may be less than your original investment. Unlike bonds and Stks, precious metals do not make interest or dividend payments. Therefore, precious metals may not be suitable for investors who require current income. Precious metals are commodities that should be safely stored, which may impose additional costs on the investor. The Securities Investor Protection Corporation (“SIPC”) provides certain protection for customers’ cash and securities in the event of a brokerage firm’s bankruptcy, other financial difficulties, or if customers’ assets are missing. SIPC insurance does not apply to precious metals or other commodities.
Bonds are subject to interest rate risk. When interest rates rise, bond prices fall; generally the longer a bond's maturity, the more sensitive it is to this risk. Bonds may also be subject to call risk, which is the risk that the issuer will redeem the debt at its option, fully or partially, before the scheduled maturity date. The market value of debt instruments may fluctuate, and proceeds from sales prior to maturity may be more or less than the amount originally invested or the maturity value due to changes in market conditions or changes in the credit quality of the issuer. Bonds are subject to the credit risk of the issuer. This is the risk that the issuer might be unable to make interest and/or principal payments on a timely basis. Bonds are also subject to reinvestment risk, which is the risk that principal and/or interest payments from a given investment may be reinvested at a lower interest rate.
Bonds rated below investment grade may have speculative characteristics and present significant risks beyond those of other securities, including greater credit risk and price volatility in the secondary market. Investors should be careful to consider these risks alongside their individual circumstances, objectives and risk tolerance before investing in high-yield bonds. High yield bonds should comprise only a limited portion of a balanced portfolio.
Interest on municipal bonds is generally exempt from federal income tax; however, some bonds may be subject to the alternative minimum tax (AMT). Typically, state tax-exemption applies if securities are issued within one's state of residence and, if applicable, local tax-exemption applies if securities are issued within one's city of residence.
Treasury Inflation Protection Securities’ (TIPS) coupon payments and underlying principal are automatically increased to compensate for inflation by tracking the consumer price index (CPI). While the real rate of return is guaranteed, TIPS tend to offer a low return. Because the return of TIPS is linked to inflation, TIPS may significantly underperform versus conventional U.S. Treasuries in times of low inflation.
Equity securities may fluctuate in response to news on companies, industries, market conditions and general economic environment.
Investing in smaller companies involves greater risks not associated with investing in more established companies, such as business risk, significant stock price fluctuations and illiquidity.
Stocks of medium-sized companies entail special risks, such as limited product lines, markets, and financial resources, and greater market volatility than securities of larger, more-established companies.
Asset allocation and diversification do not assure a profit or protect against loss in declining financial markets.
The indices are unmanaged. An investor cannot invest directly in an index. They are shown for illustrative purposes only and do not represent the performance of any specific investment.
REITs investing risks are similar to those associated with direct investments in real estate: property value fluctuations, lack of liquidity, limited diversification and sensitivity to economic factors such as interest rate changes and market recessions.
Because of their narrow focus, sector investments tend to be more volatile than investments that diversify across many sectors and companies.
CDs are insured by the FDIC, an independent agency of the U.S. Government, up to a maximum amount of $250,000 (including principal and interest) for all deposits held in the same insurable capacity (e.g. individual account, joint account) per CD depository, through December 31, 2013. On January 1, 2014, the maximum insurable amount will return to $100,000 (including principal and interest) for all insurable capacities except IRAs and certain self-directed retirement accounts, which will remain at $250,000 per depository. Investors are responsible for monitoring the total amount held with each CD depository. All deposits at a single depository held in the same insurable capacity will be aggregated for purposes of the applicable FDIC insurance limit, including deposits (such as bank accounts) maintained directly with the depository and CDs of the depository held through Morgan Stanley Smith Barney. A secondary market in CDs may be limited. CDs sold prior to maturity are subject to market risk and therefore investors may receive more or less than the amount invested or the face value. Callable CDs are callable at the sole discretion of the issuer. For more information about FDIC insurance, please visit the FDIC website at www.fdic.gov.
Contingent return (e.g. index-linked) CDs are treated as having original issue discount (OID) for tax purposes. Although interest is not received until maturity, the CD is assumed to pay a pre-determined interest rate that will be treated as current income for tax purposes if held in a taxable account. Investors should be made aware that contingent return CDs generally feature an “averaging” method of return calculation, which averages the changes in value of the relevant index as measured on predetermined dates over the life of the CD. Therefore, the CD’s return will not

Some contingent return CDs also have a participation rate (the degree to which an investor participates in the measured return of the index) that is less than 100%. Interest on contingent return CDs is not eligible for FDIC insurance before the final valuation date.
Principal is returned on a monthly basis over the life of a mortgage-backed security. Principal prepayment can significantly affect the monthly income stream and the maturity of any type of MBS, including standard MBS, CMOs and Lottery Bonds. Yields and average lives are estimated based on prepayment assumptions and are subject to change based on actual prepayment of the mortgages in the underlying pools. The level of predictability of an MBS/CMO’s average life, and its market price, depends on the type of MBS/CMO class purchased and interest rate movements. In general, asinterest rates fall, prepayment speeds are likely to increase, thus shortening the MBS/CMO’s average life and likely causing its market price to rise. Conversely, as interest rates rise, prepayment speeds are likely to decrease, thus lengthening average life and likely causing the MBS/CMO’s market price to fall. Some MBS/CMOs may have “original issue discount” (OID). OID occurs if the MBS/CMO’soriginal issue price is below its stated redemption price at maturity, and results in “imputed interest” that must be reported annually for tax purposes, resulting in a tax liability even though interest was not received. Investors are urged to consult their tax advisors for more information.
Interest income from taxable zero coupon bonds is subject to annual taxation as ordinary income even though no interest payments will be received by the investor if held in a taxable account. Zero coupon bonds may also experience greater price volatility than interest bearing fixed income securities because of their comparatively longer duration.

Growth investing does not guarantee a profit or eliminate risk. The Stks of these companies can have relatively high valuations. Because of these high valuations, an investment in a growth stock can be more risky than an investment in a company with more modest growth expectations.
Value investing does not guarantee a profit or eliminate risk. Not all companies whose Stks are considered to be value Stks are able to turn their business around or successfully employ corrective strategies which would result in stock prices that do not rise as initially expected.
