Foreign investments are subject to special risks, such as currency fluctuations, foreign taxes  and political and economic factors. Mortgage-backed securities may be especially sensitive to interest rate changes.  Past performance does not guarantee future results.

Pulse Of The Market

  • 1.  
  • 2. Pulse of the Market 2009 OppenheimerFunds Solid information to help you maneuver through the changing times of today’s financial markets. Welcome to This presentation has been filed as a complete presentation and is designed to be presented in its entirety in the order shown. These views represent the opinions of OppenheimerFunds, Inc. as of 12/31/08, are subject to change based on subsequent developments and are not intended as investment advice—consult your financial advisor. Past performance does not guarantee future results. The performance information shown in this presentation does not predict or depict the performance of any Oppenheimer fund. Due to ongoing market volatility, current performance may be more or less than the results shown in this presentation. The performance information does not show the effects of income taxes on an individual’s investment. Taxes may reduce your actual investment returns or any gains you may realize if you sell your investment. An investor’s shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than the original cost. Shares of Oppenheimer funds are not deposits or obligations of any bank, are not guaranteed by any bank, are not insured by the FDIC or any other agency, and involve investment risks, including the possible loss of the principal amount invested. Changing Times for Investors

Source of chart data: Ned Davis Research, as of 12/31/08. Stocks are represented by the Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA), a widely used indicator of the overall U.S. stock market, without considering income, transaction costs or taxes. The DJIA is unmanaged and cannot be purchased directly by investors. This chart is for illustrative purposes only and does not predict or depict the performance of any investment. 2. As of 12/31/08, this market decline/correction is ongoing. Therefore, data related to “Average Length”, “Frequency” and “What % Get Worse?” is not currently available. 3. Depicts average results of hypothetical investments in the DJIA at the bottom of all declines and held for five years. Past performance does not guarantee future results. Due to ongoing market volatility, current performance may be more or less than the results shown in this presentation. The performance information does not show the effects of income taxes on an individual’s investment. Taxes may reduce your actual investment returns or any gains you may realize if you sell your investment. An investor’s shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than the original cost.

  • 6. Average Annual Total Returns (%) 1 (As of 12/31/08) Stocks Bonds T-bills 1. Source of chart data: Ned Davis Research, 12/31/08. Stocks are represented by the S&P 500 Index, a broad-based measure of domestic stock market performance, bonds by the Barclays Capital Aggregate Bond Index, and T-bills by a 91-day Treasury Bill Index. For the 1970–12/31/08 period, bonds are represented by S&P Long-term Government Bonds. Treasury indices are total return indices held at constant maturities. Indices are unmanaged and cannot be purchased directly by investors. Index performance is shown for illustrative purposes only and does not predict or depict the performance of any investment. Past performance does not guarantee future results. Stocks and bonds are subject to different risks. Stocks are also different from fixed income securities in that (i) Government bonds and Treasury notes and bills are backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government, and (ii) bonds, if held to maturity, may offer both a fixed rate of return and fixed principal value. Past performance does not guarantee future results. Due to ongoing market volatility, current performance may be more or less than the results shown in this presentation. The performance information does not show the effects of income taxes on an individual’s investment. Taxes may reduce your actual investment returns or any gains you may realize if you sell your investment. An investor’s shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than the original cost. What’s Reasonable to Expect? Stock market performance since the millennium has been nothing like the booming ’90s. It’s imperative to maintain realistic expectations for the long term and expect ongoing volatility
