Fund Description: Direxion Daily Regional Banks Bull 3X Shares is an exchange-traded index fund or Index ETF which is a separate investment portfolio of the Direxion Shares ETF Trust, an open-end investment management company. INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE: The Direxion Daily Regional Banks Bull 3X Shares seeks daily investment results, before fees and expenses, of 300% of the performance of the Solactive Regional Bank Index. The Fund is different from most exchange-traded funds in that it seeks leveraged returns relative to the Index and only on a daily basis. The Fund also is riskier than similarly benchmarked exchange-traded funds that do not use leverage. Accordingly, the Fund may not be suitable for all investors and should be used only by knowledgeable investors who understand the potential consequences of seeking daily leveraged investment results. Shareholders should actively manage and monitor their investments, as frequently as daily. INDEX DESCRIPTION: The Solactive Regional Bank Index attempts to include the 50 largest regional banks in the United States. The Index utilizes each security’s free-float market capitalization to determine the largest regional banks. Additionally, each selected regional bank must have its primary listing on a regulated stock exchange in the U.S., must have a 3 month average daily trading volume of at least $1 million measured using composite average daily volume across all U.S. exchanges, must have a free-float market capitalization of at least $100 million and must be listed as a regional bank by a financial research firm. Once the 50 largest regional bank securities are determined, the holdings are then equal weighted. FUND STRATEGY: The Fund, under normal circumstances, creates long positions by investing at least 80% of its assets in the securities that comprise the Index and/or financial instruments that provide leveraged and unleveraged exposure to the Index. These financial instruments include: futures contracts; options on securities, indices and futures contracts; equity caps, floors and collars; swap agreements; forward contracts; short positions; reverse repurchase agreements; exchange-traded funds (ETFs); and other financial instruments. On a day-to-day basis, the Fund invests the remainder of its assets in money market funds, depository accounts with institutions with high quality credit ratings or short-term debt instruments that have terms-to-maturity of less than 397 days and exhibit high quality credit profiles, including U.S. government securities and repurchase agreements. The Fund may gain leveraged exposure to only a representative sample of the securities in the Index that have aggregate characteristics similar to those of the Index. The Fund gains this exposure either by directly investing in the underlying securities of the Index or by investing in derivatives that provide leveraged exposure to those securities. Derivatives are financial instruments that derive value from the underlying reference asset or assets, such as stocks, bonds, or funds (including ETFs), interest rates or indexes. The Fund invests in derivatives as a substitute for investing directly in a security in order to gain leveraged exposure to the Index or its components. The Fund seeks to remain fully invested at all times consistent with its stated investment objective. At the close of the markets each trading day, the adviser positions the Fund’s portfolio so that its exposure to the Index is consistent with the Fund’s investment objective. The impact of the Index’s movements during the day will affect whether the Fund’s portfolio needs to be re-positioned. FUND MANAGEMENT: Rafferty Asset Management, LLC serves as the Fund’s investment adviser.
