Nuveen Equity Long/Short A (Nuveen Equity Long/Short Fund C) Fonds

The fund pursues its investment objective by establishing long and short positions in a diversified portfolio of equity securities. Substantially all of the equity securities in which the fund takes long and short positions will be included in the fund's benchmark index, the Russell 1000 Index, at the time the position is taken. As a result, the fund will invest significantly in large-capitalization companies, though it may also invest in mid-capitalization companies.
