About CNPSX
Consumer Staples UltraSector ProFund Service Class is an open-end, leveraged mutual fund designed to deliver 1.5 times the daily performance of the S&P Consumer Staples Select Sector Index, before fees and expenses. Managed by ProFund Advisors, this fund invests in U.S. companies within the consumer staples industry—including food, beverages, tobacco, household and personal products, and consumer staples retail and distribution. To achieve its leveraged objective, the fund utilizes derivatives such as swaps alongside direct equity investments, providing amplified exposure to the underlying index’s daily moves.
This fund’s portfolio features large, well-known consumer brands like Procter & Gamble, Walmart, and Coca-Cola, but it is non-diversified, meaning a concentrated exposure to select companies. Its focus on consumer staples makes it closely tied to sectors considered essential, providing resilience during various economic cycles. The fund is categorized as Trading--Leveraged Equity, emphasizing its appeal for more active market participants seeking enhanced daily returns versus long-term buy-and-hold investors. Since its inception in 2004, the fund has played a role in allowing investors to tactically access and amplify movements in the U.S. consumer staples sector.
