, including by closing borders, restricting international and domestic      
 travel, and the imposition of prolonged quarantines or similar restrictions, as well as the forced or voluntary closure of, or operational  
 changes to, many retail and other businesses, which could have negative impacts, and in many cases severe negative impacts, on markets      
 worldwide. War, terrorism, and related geopolitical events (and their aftermath) have led, and in the future may lead, to increased         
 short-term market volatility and may have adverse long-term effects on U.S. and world economies and markets generally. Likewise,            
 natural and environmental disasters, such as, for example, earthquakes, fires, floods, hurricanes, tsunamis and weather-related phenomena   
 generally, as well as the spread of infectious illness or other public health issues, including widespread epidemics or pandemics           
 such as the novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”) global pandemic outbreak in 2020, and systemic market dislocations can be                        
 highly disruptive to economies and markets. Those events as well as other changes in non-U.S. and domestic economic and political           
 conditions also could adversely affect individual issuers or related groups of issuers, securities markets, interest rates, credit          
 ratings, inflation, investor sentiment, and other factors affecting the value of Fund investments.                                          
 Issuer Specific Changes. Changes                                                                                                            
 in the financial condition of an issuer, changes in the specific economic or political conditions that affect a particular type of          
 security or issuer, and changes in general economic or political conditions can affect the credit quality or value of an issuer’s           
 securities. Lower-quality debt securities tend to be more sensitive to these changes than higher-quality debt securities.                   
 Closed-End Fund Risk. Closed-end                                                                                                            
 investment companies are subject to the risks of investing in the underlying securities. The Fund, as a holder of the securities            
 of the closed-end investment company, will bear its pro rata portion of the closed-end investment company’s expenses, including             
 advisory fees. These expenses are in addition to the direct expenses of the Fund’s own operations.                                          
 Common Stock Risk. The Fund will                                                                                                            
 invest a significant portion of its net assets in common stocks. Common stocks represent an ownership interest in a company. The            
 Fund may also invest in securities that can be exercised for or converted into common stocks (such as convertible preferred stock).         
 Common stocks and similar equity securities are more volatile and more risky than some other forms of investment. Therefore, the            
 value of your investment in the Fund may sometimes decrease instead of increase.
