The fund's main goal is to generate overall investment returns that exceed the performance of the Russell 2000® Index. It aims to achieve this by primarily investing in derivatives tied to the Russell 2000® Index, with these positions being financially supported by a widely diversified portfolio of fixed-income instruments. This backing portfolio is actively managed by PIMCO and consists of various types of bonds, debt obligations, and similar securities issued by a broad range of public or private entities, both domestically and internationally.
