Full fund details

Objective
Seeks daily investment results equal to two times (2x) the daily performance of the price of the Japanese yen versus the U.S. dollar.
Strategy
Provides 2x daily-reset leveraged exposure to the U.S. dollar price of the Japanese yen, a currency benchmark. Uses currency forward contracts, swap agreements, and options rather than holding the currency directly, with cash collateral in money market instruments and U.S. Treasuries. Not designed to achieve 2x the benchmark over periods longer than a single day due to daily compounding.
