Leveraged and inverse ETFs are not suitable for all investors. •These ETFs should be utilized only by investors who (a) understand the risks associated with the use of leverage, (b) understand the consequences of seeking daily leveraged investment results, (c) understand the risk of shorting, and (d) intend to actively monitor and manage their investments. •The more a ETF invests in leveraged instruments, the more the leverage will magnify any gains or losses on those investments. •Inverse ETFs involve certain risks, which include increased volatility due to the ETFs’ possible use of short sales of securities and derivatives, such as options and futures. •The ETFs’ use of derivatives, such as futures, options and swap agreements, may expose the ETFs’ shareholders to additional risks that they would not be subject to if they invested directly in the securities underlying those derivatives. •Short-selling involves increased risks and costs. You risk paying more for a security than you received from its sale. •Leveraged and inverse ETFs seek to provide investment results that match the performance of a specific benchmark, before fees and expenses, on a daily basis. Because the ETFs seek to track the performance of their benchmark on a daily basis, mathematical compounding, especially with respect to those ETFs that use leverage as part of their investment strategy, may prevent a ETF from correlating with the monthly, quarterly, annual or other period performance of its benchmark. Due to the compounding of daily returns, leveraged and inverse ETFs’ returns over periods other than one day will likely differ in amount and possibly direction from the benchmark return for the same period. For those ETFs that consistently apply leverage, the value of the ETF’s shares will tend to increase or decrease more than the value of any increase or decrease in its benchmark index. The ETFs rebalance their portfolios on a daily basis, increasing exposure in response to that day’s gains or reducing exposure in response to that day’s losses. Daily rebalancing will impair a ETF’s performance if the benchmark experiences volatility. Investors should monitor their leveraged and inverse ETFs’ holdings consistent with their strategies, as frequently as daily. •For more on these and other risks, please read the prospectus.
The ETFs are not sponsored, endorsed, sold or promoted by Standard and Poor’s Corporation, NASDAQ or any of NASDAQ’s affiliates, or the Frank Russell Company. The aforementioned companies make no representation regarding the advisability of investing in the ETFs.
