The fund seeks daily investment results, before fees and expenses, of 300% of the inverse (or opposite) of the price performance of the Russell MidCap Index.

This kind of triple ETF will always underperform over the long run due to the way it is constructed. Note: I am not saying you cannot make any money holding this ETF, just that over a prolonged time it will lose money. I have now harvested positive scores on a 3x ETF and its inverse 28 times, yielding 490 points and 50 for 50 on my accuracy (6 times my harvested score was positive, but dropped below the magic +5 number).

Market to 10,000. Good psychological number for investors and computers.

Long term frictions from leveraged trading, and a (hopefully) long term upward trend in the market should make this a no-brainer.

When you look at the internal costs and statistics of these leveraged instruments, they must all underperform the market over time. If I could, I would short them in real life.

Welcome to the depression. Bear market rally ending. QE is ending. The politicians are petrified of the Tea Party. Politicians in 2010 who sided with banks are going to be routed. In gold pricing the market is still crashing.

Triple leveraged bear funds were absolutely the dumbest idea of 2008 from a Wall St. perspective. Who actually paid over $250 for this....seriously...?

Half-life period of leveraged ETF is inversely proportional to its volatility.

Based on my call that the rally is going to see a pull-back over the next few weeks I am giving all Bear ETFs a thumbs up and all Bull ETFs a thumbs down in the short run. I am only invested in a small sampling of these bear ETFs but in order to raise my CAPS score I entered several here.

Triple leverage erodes value over time.
