Investment Summary

📎 Investment Objective

The ProShares UltraShort Russell2000 ETF (TWM) seeks to provide daily investment results that correspond to the inverse (-2x) of the daily performance of the Russell 2000 Index.

🎯 Investment Strategy

TWM uses a combination of financial instruments, such as futures contracts and swaps, to provide the desired inverse exposure to the Russell 2000 Index. The fund aims to deliver twice the opposite return of the underlying index on a daily basis.

✨ Key Features

  • Provides inverse (-2x) exposure to the Russell 2000 Index, a benchmark for small-cap U.S. stocks
  • Designed for short-term trading and hedging purposes, not long-term buy-and-hold investing
  • Utilizes derivatives to achieve its inverse exposure, which can amplify gains and losses
  • Has a very low asset base and expense ratio of 0.00%

⚠️ Primary Risks

  • Significant daily rebalancing risk, as the fund's performance can deviate significantly from the inverse of the index over longer periods
  • Derivative and leverage risks, as the use of futures and swaps can magnify losses
  • Liquidity risk due to the low asset base and trading volume
  • Potential for increased volatility and tracking error compared to the underlying index

👤 Best For

TWM is best suited for experienced, short-term traders and investors who are looking to hedge their exposure to small-cap U.S. stocks or speculate on the decline of the Russell 2000 Index. It is not recommended for long-term buy-and-hold investors due to the risks associated with its inverse and leveraged nature.
