The value of the funds can be volatile and could go down substantially within a short period of time.
The investment decision is yours but you should not invest unless the intermediary who sells the fund to you has advised you that the fund is suitable for you and has explained why, including how the fund would be consistent with your investment objectives, risk profile and unique situation.
