ProShares Short Russell2000

Profile

ProShares Short Russell2000 is an inverse exchange-traded fund designed to deliver opposite daily returns to the Russell 2000 Index, which comprises 2,000 small-cap U.S. companies. The fund uses a -1x daily leverage structure, utilizing index swaps and futures contracts to achieve inverse exposure to the market-cap-weighted small-cap segment. Managed by ProShare Advisors LLC with a passive management approach, the fund seeks to profit when small-cap equity prices decline, making it suitable for tactical hedging or bearish positioning in the small-cap sector. RWM distributes dividends quarterly and carries an expense ratio of 0.95%. As a daily reset fund, it is not designed for buy-and-hold strategies but rather for short-term trading or portfolio protection against downturns in the Russell 2000 Index.
