| Fair Value Measurements Various inputs are used in determining the fair value of investments and derivative financial instruments. These inputs to valuation techniques are categorized into a disclosure hierarchy consisting of three broad levels for financial reporting purposes as follows: |
| Level 1 unadjusted price quotations in active markets/exchanges for identical assets and liabilities or the Trust has the ability to access |
| Level 2 other observable inputs (including, but not limited to, quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in markets that are active, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the assets or liabilities (such as interest rates, yield curves, volatilities, prepayment speeds, loss severities, credit risks and default rates) or other market-corroborated inputs) |
| Level 3 unobservable inputs based on the best information available in the circumstances, to the extent observable inputs are not available (including the Trusts own assumptions used in determining the fair value of investments and derivative financial instruments) |
The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). Accordingly, the degree of judgment exercised in determining fair value is greatest for instruments categorized in Level 3. The inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, for disclosure purposes, the fair value hierarchy classification is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety.
Changes in valuation techniques may result in transfers into or out of an assigned level within the disclosure hierarchy. In accordance with the Trusts policy, transfers between different levels of the fair value disclosure hierarchy are deemed to have occurred as of the beginning of the reporting period. The categorization of a value determined for investments and derivative financial instruments is based on the pricing transparency of the investment and derivative financial instrument and is not necessarily an indication of the risks associated with investing in those securities. For information about the Trusts policy regarding valuation of investments and derivative financial instruments, please refer to the Trusts most recent financial statements as contained in its semi-annual report.
The following tables summarize the Trusts investments and derivative financial instruments categorized in the disclosure hierarchy as of July 31, 2014:

Certain foreign securities are fair valued utilizing an external pricing service to reflect any significant market movements between the time the Trust values such foreign securities and the earlier closing of foreign markets. Such fair valuations are categorized as Level 2 in the disclosure hierarchy. As of October 31, 2013 the Trust did not utilize the external pricing service model adjustments as significant market movements did not occur. As of July 31, 2014, securities with a value of $53,637,180 were systematically fair valued due to significant market movements. Therefore, these securities were transferred from Level 1 to Level 2 during the period October 31, 2013 to July 31, 2014.
