Inverse Equities ETFs
Most of these ETFs seek to profit from declines in the stock market as they are designed to appreciate in value when the price of certain stock indexes fall in value. We view inverse or leveraged ETF categories as simply suited for aggressive investors only who are willing to accept the exaggerated returns offered by these particular ETFs and are prone to more active portfolio management. We see limited appeal for long-term investors.
