Important Note: Options involve risk and are not suitable for all investors. For more information, please read the Characteristics and Risks of Standardized Options before you begin trading. Moreover, there are specific risks associated with trading spreads including substantial commissions, because it involves at least twice the number of contracts as a long or short position and because spreads are almost invariably closed out prior to expiration. Because of the importance of tax considerations to all options transactions, the investor considering options should consult his/her tax adviser as to how taxes affect the outcome of each options strategy.

All bonds are subject to interest rate risk and you may lose money. Bonds sold by issuers with lower credit ratings may offer higher yields than bonds issued by higher rated or "investment grade" issuers, but are usually associated with higher risks. High yield bonds, also known as "junk bonds", generally have a greater risk of default, which increases the risk that an issuer may be unable to pay interest and principal on the issue. In addition, high yield bonds tend to have higher interest rate risk and liquidity risk, particularly in volatile market conditions, which makes it more difficult to sell the bonds. Before investing in high yield bonds, you should carefully consider and understand the risks associated with investing in high yield bonds.
