Provides inverse leveraged exposure to the Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA). Seeks to deliver twice the inverse of the daily performance of the DJIA. Now — the numbers.
An investor who bought at the very peak is down 69% today. The business is the same; what changed most is the price — and the expectations — the market pins on it.
It pays out $0.69 per share each year — regular cash for whoever holds the stock.
Buyers haven’t stepped back in yet; the price hasn’t found its footing. Report-card grade: 2/100. For a turnaround signal, the stock first needs to close the gap with the market.
We grade companies — revenue, margins, balance sheets. This is a fund, so there is no report card to give. That is not a low grade; it is a different kind of thing.
One-line summary: a basket, not a business. Judge it by what it holds.
