QQDNCProShares UltraShort QQQ Mega

RWMBProShares Short Russell2000

In short

QQDN The only ETF aiming at -2x the daily move of the Nasdaq-100 Mega Index, the top slice of the Nasdaq-100 by weight. A short on today's mega-cap leaders, not a fixed Mag 7 list. 0.95% net of a waiver through September 30, 2027.

RWM Short small caps at one speed: RWM targets the inverse of the Russell 2000's daily move, with no 2x or 3x multiplier on top. Trading since 2007, at 0.95% net of a waiver through September 30, 2027.

Stated mandate

QQDN QQDN seeks daily results equal to two times the inverse of the Nasdaq-100 Mega Index's daily performance, before fees and expenses.

RWM The fund seeks daily investment results, before fees and expenses, that correspond to the inverse of the Russell 2000 Index's daily performance.

Why people hold it

  • QQDN Targets -2x the daily move of an index built from the top 45% cumulative weight of the Nasdaq-100, so the bearish bet rides on the handful of names driving the index.nasdaq.com
  • Membership is dynamic: the index rebuilds around whichever Nasdaq-100 giants carry the weight, rather than locking in a fixed Mag 7 or FAANG roster.nasdaq.comproshares.com
  • 0.95% net of a waiver through September 30, 2027, near the category median and level with ProShares' long-running shorts PSQ and DOG (also 0.95% net, waivers to the same date).
  • Swaps do the work, so short exposure arrives in a regular brokerage account: no margin agreement, no borrowing shares, no buy-in risk.proshares.com
  • RWM Straight -1x, not a multiplier: it tracks the inverse of the Russell 2000's daily move, where stablemate TWM targets -2x on the same index.proshares.com
  • ProShares calls it the only -1x ETF tied to the Russell 2000, the index of the 2,000 smallest US names in the Russell 3000.proshares.comproshares.com 2
  • Trading since January 2007 and one of the busier funds in the inverse-equity aisle, so entering and exiting is rarely the hard part.
  • Fee is 0.95% net of a waiver through September 30, 2027 (1.05% gross), near what this category charges, and it rates among the strongest builds in its peer group.

Worth knowing

  • QQDN The -2x target applies to a single day. Hold longer and results depend on the path the index takes; choppy markets can pull returns well away from -2x the period move.proshares.com
  • The 0.95% is net of a waiver through September 30, 2027. Gross expenses run 3.06%, so the headline fee depends on ProShares keeping that waiver in place.
  • A small fund that trades thinly, which can mean wider bid-ask spreads than ProShares' long-established short ETFs and more cost in getting in and out.
  • RWM The -1x target resets daily. Hold longer and compounding rules: ProShares says multi-day returns can differ significantly from the target, in amount and even direction.proshares.comproshares.com 2
  • Symmetric by design: on days the Russell 2000 climbs, the fund is built to lose roughly as much as the index gains.proshares.com
  • Fund documents tell investors to monitor holdings as frequently as daily, which puts this at the hands-on end of the shelf.proshares.com
