units are issued and redeemed principally in kind. Shares may trade
at a premium or discount to NAV in the secondary market. Market
Vectors Gaming ETF is subject to various risks including those
associated with making investments in companies engaged in the
gaming business such as competitive pressures, changes in
government regulation, world events and economic conditions.
Additional risks include legislative changes, high correlation
within the industry and changes in consumer taste. Because of their
narrow focus, sector investments tend to be more volatile than
investments that diversify across many sectors and companies. Van
