Past performance is not indicative of future results. All investments involve risk. The value of an ETF or Mutual Fund can go down as well as up and you could lose money. The risk of an ETF or Mutual Fund is rated based on the volatility of the ETF’s or MF's returns using the standardized risk classification methodology mandated by the Canadian Securities Administrators. Historical volatility doesn’t tell you how volatile an ETF or Mutual Fund will be in the future. An ETF or Mutual Fund with a risk rating of “low” can still lose money.
