Investment Summary

📎 Investment Objective

The ProShares Ultra Energy ETF (DIG) seeks to provide daily investment results that correspond to twice (2x) the daily performance of the Dow Jones U.S. Oil & Gas Index.

🎯 Investment Strategy

The fund uses a combination of financial instruments, such as futures contracts and swaps, to provide leveraged exposure to the energy sector. It aims to deliver 2x the daily returns of its underlying index.

✨ Key Features

  • Provides 2x the daily performance of the Dow Jones U.S. Oil & Gas Index
  • Utilizes leverage to amplify the returns of the energy sector
  • Resets its leverage daily, which can lead to compounding effects over longer holding periods
  • Has a low expense ratio of 0.00%

⚠️ Primary Risks

  • Significant volatility and risk of loss due to the leveraged nature of the fund
  • Potential for large losses if the underlying index declines in value
  • Compounding effects can magnify losses over longer holding periods
  • Lack of performance history, as the fund has not been in existence for 1, 3, or 5 years

👤 Best For

This ETF is best suited for experienced, risk-tolerant investors who seek to make short-term, speculative bets on the energy sector. It is not recommended for long-term, buy-and-hold investors due to the risks associated with its leveraged structure.
