Our read on URTY
In short
BThe quieter way to put 3x daily torque on the Russell 2000. ProShares has run URTY since 2010 at 0.95% net of a waiver through September 30, 2027, under the fee on the better-known 3x small-cap rival.
Stated mandate
URTY seeks daily investment results, before fees and expenses, corresponding to three times the daily performance of the Russell 2000 Index. Because the objective is daily, returns over periods longer than one day may differ materially from the target.

Distribution history
URTY 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.
- 58.4%
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.
- 0.74
How it’s calculated: Sharpe ratio
Subtract each month’s Treasury-bill return from the fund’s monthly total return.
Divide the average of those excess returns by their sample standard deviation, then multiply by the square root of 12.
Uses up to 36 complete months, with at least 12 required. Each month uses the Treasury yield quoted at the end of the previous month.
- −82.7%
How it’s calculated: maximum drawdown
The largest percentage decline from an earlier peak, using total returns with reinvested distributions.
