Fund Description: Direxion Daily Gold Miners Bear 3X Shares, formerly the Direxion Daily Gold Miners Bear 2X Shares, is an exchange-traded index fund or Index ETF which is a separate investment portfolio of the Direxion Shares ETF Trust, an investment management company. INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE: The Direxion Daily Gold Miners Bear 3x shares seeks daily investment results, before fees and expenses, of 300% of the inverse (or opposite) of the price performance of the NYSE Arca Gold Miners Index. The Fund seeks daily leveraged investment results and does not seek to achieve its stated investment objective over a period of time greater than one day. The Fund is different and much riskier than most exchange-traded fund and is designed to be utilized only by knowledgeable investors who understand the potential consequences of seeking daily leveraged investment results, understand the risks associated with the use of leverage and are willing to monitor their portfolios as frequently as daily. INDEX DESCRIPTION: The NYSE Arca Gold Miners Index is a modified market capitalization weighted index comprised of publicly traded companies that operate globally in both developed and emerging markets and are involved primarily in the mining for gold and silver. FUND STRATEGY: The Fund, under normal circumstances, creates short positions by investing at least 80% of its net assets in: futures contracts; options on securities, indices and futures contracts; equity caps, collars and floors; swap agreements; forward contracts; short positions, reverse repurchase agreements; exchange-traded funds; and other financial instruments that, in combination, provide leveraged and unleveraged exposure to the Index. The Fund invests the remainder of its assets in 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 does not invest in equity securities. The Fund seeks to remain fully invested at all times consistent with its stated goal. At the close of the markets each trading day, Rafferty, the investment advisor, 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. The Fund will concentrate its investment in a particular industry or group of industries to approximately the same extent as the Index is so concentrated. FUND MANAGEMENT: Rafferty Asset Management, LLC is the Fund’s investment adviser. The Portfolio Managers are primarily responsible for the day-to-day management of the Fund.
