Frequently Asked Questions About DIG

What does DIG invest in?

The ProShares Ultra Energy fund is engineered to offer daily returns that are double the daily performance of the S&P Energy Select Sector Index. This objective is pursued prior to the deduction of any fees or expenses.

What is the expense ratio of DIG?

ProShares - Ultra Energy (DIG) charges an expense ratio of 1.07%. This is the annual fee deducted from fund assets to cover management and operations.

Is DIG a good long-term hold?

DIG is a leveraged fund designed to deliver a daily multiple of its underlying index. Daily reset compounding means returns over multi-day periods can diverge significantly from the headline multiple — typically negative drift in choppy markets. These funds are designed for short-term tactical use, not buy-and-hold. Review the fund's prospectus before holding more than a few days.

How does DIG's daily reset work?

DIG rebalances exposure each trading day to maintain its target leverage ratio against the next day's move. The daily reset means returns compound at the daily level — so a +1%, −1% sequence on the underlying doesn't return the underlying to flat after the leverage multiplier. Over time this path-dependence erodes returns in volatile markets and amplifies them in trending markets.

How big is DIG?

ProShares - Ultra Energy (DIG) manages $82.0M in total assets. AUM determines bid-ask liquidity and the fund's vulnerability to closure — funds below ~$50M are at higher risk of liquidation.
