Portfolio Statistics Percentile Rankings
Morningstar rankings are based on a fund’s average annual total return relative to the funds in the same category and includes the reinvestment of dividends and capital gains. Rankings shown are for Class I shares and may be lower for Investor shares due to higher fees and expenses. The rankings may have been lower without the fee waiver in effect. The highest (or most favorable) percentile rank is 1 and the lowest (or least favorable)percentile rank is 100. The Fund was ranked 43% for the 1-year period, 16% for the 3-year period, 8% for the 5-year period and 26% since inception among 122, 100, 82, 100 funds, respectively.

Market Turbulence Resulting from COVID-19. The outbreak of COVID-19 has negatively affected the worldwide economy, individual countries, individual companies and the market in general. The future impact of COVID-19 is currently unknown, and it may exacerbate other risks that apply to the Fund.
The 361 Global Managed Futures Strategy Fund Class I shares was rated 4 stars for the 3-year period and 5 stars for the 5-year period among 100 and 82 funds, respectively, in the Managed Futures funds category. Ratings reflect fee waivers in effect; in their absence, ratings may have been lower.
The Morningstar Rating™ for funds, or "star rating", is calculated for managed products (including mutual funds, variable annuity and variable life subaccounts, exchange-traded funds, closed-end funds, and separate accounts) with at least a three-year history. Exchange-traded funds and open-ended mutual funds are considered a single population for comparative purposes. It is calculated based on a Morningstar Risk-Adjusted Return measure that accounts for variation in a managed product's monthly excess performance, placing more emphasis on downward variations and rewarding consistent performance. The top 10% of products in each product category receive 5 stars, the next 22.5% receive 4 stars, the next 35% receive 3 stars, the next 22.5% receive 2 stars, and the bottom 10% receive 1 star. The Overall Morningstar Rating for a managed product is derived from a weighted average of the performance figures associated with its three-, five-, and 10-year (if applicable) Morningstar Rating metrics. The weight is 100% for a three-year rating for 36-59 months of total returns and 60% five-year rating/40% three-year rating for 60-119 months of total returns. © 2020 Morningstar.

Investing involves risk, including possible loss of principal. Futures prices can be very volatile. The small margin required for futures contracts magnifies the effect of market volatility and allows the loss from a contract potentially to exceed the Fund’s initial investment. With short contracts, the loss is theoretically unlimited since the appreciation of the underlying asset also is theoretically unlimited. Foreign investment entails additional risk from adverse changes in currency exchange rates, tax regulation, and potential market instability. Frequent trading by the Fund may reduce returns and increase the number of taxable transactions. Concentration of its portfolio in relatively few issuers may make the Fund more volatile than a diversified fund.

Commentary
The Fund significantly outperformed the category with most of the returns coming in October as the Fund was up 2.5% and the category was down 2.6%. Equity trading was positive over the quarter for the category due to their long exposure to rising markets; but that was overshadowed by negative returns from currency and commodity trading. Our counter-trend approach in equities also generated positive returns, and our lack of exposure to other asset classes (e.g., bonds) was beneficial.
