The investment seeks daily investment results before fees and expenses that correspond to the inverse (-1x) of the daily performance of the US Tech 100 Index®.The fund invests in financial instruments that ProShare Advisors believes, in combination, should produce daily returns consistent with the fund's investment objective. This ETF offers inverse exposure to an index comprised of the 100 largest nonfinancial securities on the NASDAQ, making it a potentially attractive option for investors looking to bet against this sector of the U.S. economy. PSQ should definitely not be found in a long-term, buy-and-hold portfolio, but may be a useful tool for more active investors looking to either hedge existing exposure or bet on a decline in the top nonfinancial NASDAQ securities. Investors also have the option of simply selling short a traditional NASDAQ fund, though that strategy will generally involve greater potential losses than utilizing an inverse ETF.
