About RYACX

Rydex Inverse NASDAQ-100 Strategy Fund Class C is a mutual fund designed to provide investment results that correspond, before fees and expenses, to the inverse (or opposite) of the daily performance of the NASDAQ-100 Index. The primary objective is to deliver returns that move in the opposite direction of this prominent technology-heavy benchmark, making it a specialized tool for investors seeking potential hedging strategies or exposure to declining movements in the NASDAQ-100. Unlike traditional index funds, this fund generally does not directly own the underlying index components; instead, it employs derivatives and other financial instruments to achieve its inverse correlation. The fund’s portfolio tends to focus on sectors and industries with significant weightings in the NASDAQ-100, such as technology and large-cap growth companies. With an annual distribution frequency and a team-managed structure, this fund occupies a distinctive role in the market, serving those looking for tactical responses to market downturns or to diversify risk within broader portfolios.
