The ProShares Short Russell2000 (RWM) is an inverse exchange-traded fund designed to deliver the daily inverse performance of the Russell 2000 Index. The fund utilizes a combination of financial derivatives and instruments to achieve returns that correspond to the opposite of the daily movement of approximately 2,000 small-cap U.S. equities.
The underlying index represents the bottom 10% of the Russell 3000 Index by market capitalization, making it a primary benchmark for small-cap stock performance. Because this ETF is structured for daily inverse results, it is typically utilized as a short-term tactical tool or a hedge against volatility in the small-cap sector rather than a long-term buy-and-hold investment.
Investors can further examine the historical performance and volatility metrics of this ETF on ValueRay. As a non-diversified fund, RWM carries specific risks associated with concentrated exposure to the derivatives market and the inherent volatility of smaller, float-adjusted companies.
