Our read on EUM
CA single-speed short on emerging markets. EUM aims to deliver the daily inverse (-1x) of the MSCI Emerging Markets Index, with no leverage stacked on top, and it has run that same trade since 2007.
The Fund seeks daily investment results, before fees and expenses, that correspond to the inverse performance of the MSCI Emerging Markets Index.
Why people hold it
- -1x, not -2x: it targets the daily inverse of the MSCI Emerging Markets Index, so a day's move is matched one-for-one instead of doubled like sibling fund EEV.
- Cheaper than the doubled version of the same idea: 1.69% a year versus 2.69% for EEV, which shorts the identical index.
- Running since 2007 with an unchanged job description: inverse MSCI Emerging Markets, reset each day. It also pays distributions quarterly.
Worth knowing
- The mandate is a one-day mandate. Returns compound off each day's close, so multi-day results can drift from the index's inverse move, especially in choppy markets.
- At 1.69% a year, it costs more than the typical fund in its inverse and leveraged peer group, and that fee bites harder the longer a position sits.
- Small asset base and only moderate trading, so spreads and order sizing matter more here than in the heavily traded short-index funds.

EUM Risk
This fund targets a multiple of the daily move of its index and resets daily. Hold it longer than one reset and compounding makes the return diverge from that target. In choppy markets it can lose value even when the index ends flat.
- 15.0%
How it’s calculated: standard deviation
The sample standard deviation of monthly total returns, multiplied by the square root of 12.
Uses up to 36 complete months, with at least 12 required. Total returns include reinvested distributions.

How it’s calculated: Sharpe ratio
Subtract each month’s Treasury-bill return from the fund’s monthly total return.
