Fund Description: Direxion Daily Pharmaceutical & Medical 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 investment management company. INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE: Direxion Daily Pharmaceutical & Medical Bull 3X Shares seeks daily investment results, before fees and expenses, of 300% of the price performance of the Dynamic Pharmaceutical Intellidex 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 Dynamic Pharmaceutical Intellidex Index consists of common shares of companies that are principally engaged in research, development, manufacture, sale or distribution of pharmaceuticals and drugs of all types. The Index may include pharmaceutical companies and other companies that facilitate the testing or regulatory approval of drugs. NYSE Arca, Inc. (the Index Provider) begins with the 2,000 largest companies listed on both the NYSE MKT and NASDAQ exchanges and then uses a proprietary model that ranks the stocks for capital appreciation potential. The Index Provider then divides the companies into two market capitalization groups, larger and smaller. The Index Provider then identifies a specified number of companies from each group for inclusion in the Index. The larger market capitalization companies will represent 40% of the Index and the smaller market capitalization companies will represent 60% of the Index when the Index is rebalanced. FUND STRATEGY: The Fund, under normal circumstances, invests at least 80% of its net assets (plus borrowing for investment purposes) in financial instruments that provide daily leveraged exposure to the Index and/or exchange-traded funds (ETFs) that track the Index. The financial instruments in which the Fund normally invests include swap agreements and futures contracts which are intended to produce economically leveraged investment results. On a day-to-day basis, the Fund is expected to hold money market funds and/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 invest in the securities of the Index, a representative sample of the securities in the Index that has aggregate characteristics similar to those of the Index, an ETF that tracks the Index or a substantially similar index, or utilize derivatives such as swaps on the Index, swaps on an ETF that tracks the same Index or a substantially similar index as the Fund, or futures contracts that provide leveraged exposure to the above. 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.
