On June 22, 2012 Tesla released their Model S electric car, at the price of $77,400 for the 300-mile version. If you had purchased the car, you would now own a Tesla Model S at its depreciated value. If you had used the same sum of money to buy Tesla stock, which was valued at a split adjusted price of $6.52,1 you would now own 11,809 shares, each valued at $695. Your $77,400 would now be worth over $8.2m.
These figures show the potential gains if you invest in the companies that you buy from. Consider another example. Amazon shares have risen in value over the last four years from $587 (Jan 2, 2016) to $3,201.65 (December 18, 2016), that’s 445%3. In the same period, Facebook share value has risen from $368.77 to $23,417, that’s 6,250%.4 Apple stock has gone up from $26.8325 (December 21, 2015) to $126.655 (December 18, 2020), a 372% growth.5 Netflix rose from $91.84 (January 1, 2016) to $534.45 (December 18, 2020), 482%.6
When you trust and believe in a brand, and value the service or item it provides, you may consider purchasing its product. This is consuming. But those very same value decisions that led you to buy or use the product, could also lead you to a decision to invest in the company. Buying shares, whether individually or as part of a fund that balances the risk and exposure to a single company, expresses your confidence in the brand and enables you to benefit from its possible growth and success. If you believe that others may make the same consumption decisions as you, then you have reason to consider investing in what you consume.

Investing involves risk. Principal loss is possible. As an ETF, the funds may trade at a premium or discount to NAV. Shares of any ETF are bought and sold at market price (not NAV) and are not individually redeemed from the Fund. The Funds are not actively managed and would not sell a security due to current or projected under performance unless that security is removed from the Index or is required upon a reconstitution of the Index. A portfolio concentrated in a single industry or country, may be subject to a higher degree of risk. The value of stocks of information technology companies are particularly vulnerable to rapid changes in technology product cycles, rapid product obsolescence, government regulation and competition. The Funds are considered to be non-diversified, so they may invest more of its assets in the securities of a single issuer or a smaller number of issuers. Investments in foreign securities involve certain risks including risk of loss due to foreign currency fluctuations or to political or economic instability. This risk is magnified in emerging markets. Small and mid-cap companies are subject to greater and more unpredictable price changes than securities of large-cap companies.
The performance data quoted represents past performance. Past performance does not guarantee future results. The investment return and principal value of an investment will fluctuate so that an investor's shares, when sold or redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost and current performance may be lower or higher than the performance quoted. Performance current to the most recent month-end can be obtained by calling (833.333.9383). Click here for funds performance: QTUM, FIVG, IBBJ, and SPAK
The securities of small-capitalization companies may be more vulnerable to adverse issuer, market, political, or economic developments than securities of large- or mid-capitalization companies. The success of biotechnology companies is highly dependent on the development, procurement and/or marketing of drugs. The values of biotechnology companies are also dependent on the development, protection and exploitation of intellectual property rights and other proprietary information, and the profitability of biotechnology companies may be affected significantly by such things as the expiration of patents or the loss of, or the inability to enforce, intellectual property rights. The research and development and other costs associated with developing or procuring new drugs, products or technologies and the related intellectual property rights can be significant, and the results of such research and expenditures are unpredictable and may not necessarily lead to commercially successful products.
The possible applications of quantum computing and 5G technologies are only in the exploration stages, and the possible returns are uncertain and may not be realized in the near future.

The fund does this by tracking The BlueStar 5G Communications Index. The Fund attempts to invest all, or substantially all, of its assets in the component securities that make up the Index.
Diversification does not ensure a profit nor protect against loss in a declining market.
It is not possible to invest directly in an index.
The SPAK Fund invests in companies that have recently completed an IPO or are derived from a SPAC. These companies may be unseasoned and lack a trading history, a track record of reporting to investors, and widely available research coverage. IPOs are thus often subject to extreme price volatility and speculative trading. These stocks may have above-average price appreciation in connection with the IPO prior to inclusion in the Index. The price of stocks included in the Index may not continue to appreciate and the performance of these stocks may not replicate the performance exhibited in the past. In addition, IPOs may share similar illiquidity risks of private equity and venture capital. The free float shares held by the public in an IPO are typically a small percentage of the market capitalization. The ownership of many IPOs often includes large holdings by venture capital and private equity investors who seek to sell their shares in the public market in the months following an IPO when shares restricted by lock-up are released, causing greater volatility and possible downward pressure during the time that locked-up shares are released.
SPAK is new with a limited operating history.
Commissions may be charged on trades.
