At a GlanceThe UltraShort Small-Cap ProFund provides leveraged exposure to the Russell 2000® Index.
ObjectiveSeeks daily investment results, before fees and expenses, that correspond to twice (200%) the inverse (opposite) of the daily performance of the Russell 2000 Index.
There is no guarantee that any ProFund will achieve its investment objective. Investment return and principal value will vary and shares may be worth more or less at redemption than at original purchase. See the prospectus for more information.
This ProFund routinely employs leveraged investment techniques that magnify gains and losses and result in greater volatility in value. This ProFund should experience losses when benchmark indexes rise.
This ProFund carries additional risks since smaller companies generally have a higher risk of failure.
