Our read on each fund

ETF.net Research

REWCProShares UltraShort Technology

SVXYBProShares Short VIX Short-Term Futures ETF

In short

REW The only -2x way to lean against US tech. REW targets twice the inverse of the S&P Technology Select Sector Index, reset every single day, at 0.95% net of a waiver through September 30, 2027.

SVXY Short volatility, half dose. SVXY targets one-half the inverse of a VIX short-term futures index each day, a deliberately de-tuned take on the short-vol trade, and it has run that mandate since 2011.

Stated mandate

REW The Fund seeks daily investment results corresponding to -2x the daily performance of the S&P Technology Select Sector Index.

SVXY SVXY seeks daily results equal to one-half the inverse of the S&P 500 VIX Short-Term Futures Index. Its objective is measured daily, so returns over longer periods can differ from the stated daily target.

Why people hold it

  • REW ProShares bills it as the only -2x ETF built to rise when the tech sector falls on the day: a middle gear between single-short and triple-short products.proshares.com
  • 0.95% net of a waiver through September 30, 2027, matching stablemates PSQ and DOG (each 0.95% net of waivers through that same date) and sitting near the category median.
  • Listed in 2007, which makes it one of the longer-running geared tech funds on the tape.
  • The reference is the S&P Technology Select Sector Index, the mainstream large-cap tech gauge, not a custom or narrowed basket.proshares.com
  • SVXY The half-strength design is the whole idea: a -0.5x daily target rather than full inverse, so a jump in VIX futures lands with half the force of a one-for-one short.proshares.com
  • 0.95% a year sits below the typical leveraged and inverse fund, and among that crowd this is one of the stronger implementations in its peer group.
  • Launched in 2011 and actively traded, so it has a long operating history and a working market for getting in and out.

Worth knowing

  • REW The -2x target applies to one day. Hold past that and compounding takes over, so results can drift away from -2x the index move, especially in choppy markets.proshares.com
  • Gross expenses run 2.84%. The 0.95% you actually pay rests on a waiver running through September 30, 2027, and waivers get renewed rather than locked in.
  • A small fund that trades lightly next to the big index shorts, so spreads and order size carry more weight here.
  • SVXY The objective resets daily. Hold longer and compounding takes over, so results over weeks or months can look nothing like half the inverse of the index.proshares.com
  • It is a commodity pool holding VIX futures, not a basket of stocks. Reporting and tax treatment follow different rules than a standard equity ETF.proshares.com
  • Pure price vehicle with no distribution stream, and volatility spikes arrive fast, which is exactly what a short-vol position is on the wrong side of.
