About RYCDX
Rydex Inverse NASDAQ-100 2x Strategy Fund Class C is a mutual fund designed to deliver twice the inverse (opposite) of the daily performance of the NASDAQ-100 Index, before fees and expenses. Its primary function is to serve as a trading tool for those wishing to profit from or hedge against declines in the large-cap growth sector represented by the NASDAQ-100. The fund achieves its objective by employing derivatives and futures, as well as holding significant positions in cash and short-term U.S. Treasuries, which support its leveraged inverse exposure. This strategy places the fund within the trading—inverse equity category, making it distinct from traditional long-only equity funds. Managed by Security Investors, LLC and distributed by Guggenheim Funds Distributors, LLC, it caters primarily to sophisticated market participants, providing daily-reset leveraged inverse exposure rather than long-term growth. The fund’s annual net expense ratio is relatively high, reflecting the complexity and active management needed to maintain its target exposure.
Performance
RYCDX had a total return of -33.24% in the past year, including dividends. Since the fund's inception, the average annual return has been -12.63%.
