Inverse funds and leveraged funds may not be suitable for all investors. Investing in short/inverse funds involves certain risks, which may include increased volatility due to the funds' possible use of short sales of securities and derivatives such as options and futures. The funds are subject to active trading risks that may increase volatility and impact the funds' ability to achieve their investment objectives. The use of leverage by a mutual fund increases the risk to the fund. The more a mutual fund invests in leveraged instruments, the more the leverage will magnify any gains or losses on those investments.
1. “Short funds” or “inverse funds” are designed to provide investment results that move in the opposite direction of the daily price movement of the index to which they are benchmarked.
