Investing in the stock market involves gains and losses and may not be suitable for all investors. Growth stocks tend to be more volatile than other stocks as the price of growth stocks tends to be higher in relation to their companies´ earnings and may be more sensitive to market, political and economic developments.

The Alger Dynamic Opportunities Strategy may engage in selling stocks short. Short selling (or "selling short") is a technique used by investors who try to profit from the falling price of a stock. It is the act of borrowing a security from a broker and selling it, with the understanding that it must later be bought back and returned to the broker. In order to engage in a short sale, the strategy arranges with a broker to borrow the security being sold short. In order to close out its short position, the strategy will replace the security by purchasing the security at the price prevailing at the time of replacement. The strategy will incur a loss if the price of the security sold short has increased since the time of the short sale and may experience a gain if the price has decreased since the short sale.
