5 There are risks associated with investing including possible loss of principal. In addition to the normal risks of investing, foreign investing involves special risks, such as risk of loss from currency fluctuation or political or economic uncertainty. Investments in real estate involve additional special risks, such as credit risk, interest rate fluctuations and the effect of varied economic conditions. Funds that focus its investments in one country increase the impact of events and developments associated with the region which can adversely affect performance. Funds focusing on a single country, sector and/or smaller companies generally experience greater price volatility. Investments in emerging or frontier markets are generally less liquid and less efficient than developed markets. Investments in currency involve additional special risks, such as credit risk, interest rate fluctuations, derivative investment risk and the effect of varied economic conditions. As these Funds can have a high concentration in some issuers the Funds can be adversely impacted by changes affecting issuers. Unlike typical exchange-traded Funds, there are no indexes that the currency Funds attempt to track or replicate. Thus, the ability of the currency Funds to achieve its objectives will depend on the effectiveness of the portfolio manager. Please read the Funds prospectus for specific details regarding the Fund s risk profile. Investors should consider the investment objectives, risks, charges and expenses of the Funds carefully before investing. A prospectus, containing this and other information, is available at wisdomtree.com or by calling WISE (9473). Investors should read the prospectus carefully before investing. WisdomTree shares are bought and sold at market price (not NAV) and are not individually redeemed from the Fund. Total Returns are calculated using the daily 4:00pm net asset value (NAV). Market price returns reflect the midpoint of the bid/ask spread as of the close of trading on the exchange where Fund shares are listed. Market price returns do not represent the returns you would receive if you traded shares at other times. Prior to January 20, 2009, the WisdomTree Equity Income Funds were named the WisdomTree High-Yielding Funds. * Performance less than one year is cumulative. Performance of the domestic benchmark indexes assumes the reinvestment of gross dividends and excludes management fees, transaction costs and expenses.
