@Troy Z: "When the decision is made to invest in them, is there something in the prospectus that guarantees their increase in value, and if so, what is the mechanism for that?"
There is no guarantee that your investment gain value. In fact, whenever you invest, the investment company makes you sign that you know your investment is not FDIC insured and may lose value.

Note that there's an ad that runs before the Star Wars video clip plays.
