ProShares Grows to Third-Largest Lineup of ETFs in U.S. NEW YORK, Feb. 22 /PRNewswire/ -- ProShares, together with the American Stock Exchange(R) (Amex(R)), today announced the addition of 12 exchange traded funds (ETFs) to the ProShares lineup. The new ProShares, benchmarked to six Russell style indexes, are the first ETFs or mutual funds designed to provide short or magnified exposure to growth and value indexes-with large-, mid- and small- cap versions of each. "Investing in a specific style mutual fund or ETF has long been an easy way to tilt a portfolio's exposure toward growth or value," said Michael Sapir, CEO of ProShare Advisors LLC, part of ProFunds Group. "The new ProShares are a unique-and we think useful-addition to the style fund arsenal. Now, by simply buying an ETF, fund investors can seek to hedge gains in other style investments with short exposure, or seek to increase the buying power of their investment dollar with magnified exposure." The new "style" funds bring ProShares' total offering to 52 ETFs, covering a wide range of indexes-from broad market choices to specific sectors. ProShares are the first and only ETFs designed to provide short or magnified exposure to indexes. In the eight months since the initial launch of ProShares, the family has grown to more than $3 billion in assets. "Since the beginning of the year we have more than quadrupled the size of the ProShares lineup-we now offer the third-largest lineup of ETFs in the country," Sapir added. "Investors have been asking us to add more choices because they want to be able to get ProShares' built-in short or magnified exposure to more of the indexes they use." The newest ProShares provide short and magnified exposure to each of six benchmark Russell indexes. The UltraShort version of each is designed to provide twice the inverse of the daily performance of the applicable index (before fees and expenses), and the Ultra version is designed to double the daily performance of the applicable index (before fees and expenses).
