Investment Summary

📎 Investment Objective

The ProShares Ultra S&P500 ETF (SSO) seeks to provide 2x the daily return of the S&P 500 Index.

🎯 Investment Strategy

The fund uses a combination of derivatives, such as swap agreements and futures contracts, to provide leveraged exposure to the S&P 500 Index. It aims to deliver twice the daily performance of the underlying index, before fees and expenses.

✨ Key Features

  • Provides 2x leveraged exposure to the S&P 500 Index
  • Utilizes derivatives to achieve its targeted leverage
  • Resets daily, so long-term returns may not equal 2x the index
  • Has a very low expense ratio of 0.00%

⚠️ Primary Risks

  • Significant risk of loss due to the leveraged nature of the fund
  • Potential for increased volatility compared to the underlying index
  • Daily rebalancing can lead to performance deviation from 2x the index over longer periods
  • Counterparty risk associated with the derivatives used

👤 Best For

The ProShares Ultra S&P500 ETF is best suited for experienced, risk-tolerant investors who seek to amplify their exposure to the S&P 500 Index on a short-term basis and understand the risks associated with leveraged products. It is not recommended for long-term buy-and-hold investors.
