About SPPIX
The ProFunds Short Precious Metals Fund Investor Class is a passively managed mutual fund designed to deliver the inverse of the daily performance of the Dow Jones U.S. Precious Metals Index. Its primary function is to offer investors exposure to the opposite of the performance of prominent U.S. precious metals companies, seeking daily investment results, before fees and expenses, that are -1x the return of the index. The fund achieves this by investing in financial instruments that ProFund Advisors believes, in combination, should provide the intended inverse outcome on a daily basis. This structure makes the fund a tool for investors looking for tactical opportunities to capitalize on declines in the precious metals sector. The fund plays a specialized role in the market, serving those who seek short exposure to companies involved in the exploration, mining, and production of precious metals such as gold and silver, without directly shorting individual stocks or using margin. Launched in 2006, it remains a niche product within the broader universe of inverse and sector-specific mutual funds.
