About RYIZX
The Rydex Inverse Russell 2000 2x Strategy Fund Class C is a mutual fund designed to deliver daily investment results that correspond to twice the inverse (−2x) of the daily performance of the Russell 2000 Index, before fees and expenses. This fund is structured to benefit when small-cap equities, as tracked by the Russell 2000, decline in value. It pursues its strategy primarily by employing short sales of index components and investing in derivatives that achieve the desired inverse exposure. Typical investors use this fund for tactical, short-term positions to hedge or speculate on declines in the small-cap U.S. equity segment. The fund is non-diversified, meaning it can focus its holdings more narrowly, and its leveraged inverse mandate amplifies both potential gains and losses within a single trading day. Its investment approach and structure make it suited for experienced market participants seeking tools for sophisticated risk management or directional trading linked to small-cap equities.
Performance
RYIZX had a total return of -49.36% in the past year, including dividends. Since the fund's inception, the average annual return has been -30.18%.
