This document contains hypothetical results. Although we have done our
best to present this information fairly, hypothetical performance is
still potentially misleading. Hypothetical data does not represent
actual performance and should not be interpreted as an indication of
actual performance. This data is based on transactions that were not
made. Instead, the trades were simulated, based on knowledge that was
available only after the fact and thus with the benefit of hindsight.
Results do not include the impact of taxes, if any. Past returns are
not indicative of future results.
Data Sources: The following data sources were used to develop the
tables and figures in this workshop. Note that many of our return
series rely on academic simulations gathered and developed by
Dimensional Fund Advisors (DFA). All performance data are total
returns including interest and dividends. Simulated data subtracts the
current expense ratio for the comparable fund, except for the S&P
500 Index.
