Direxion Launches New Daily 2X Leveraged Metals and Mining ETF (MNM)

MNM Provides 200% Exposure to Metals and Mining Industry

PR Newswire

NEW YORK, Dec. 16, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Direxion announced today the launch of the Direxion Daily Metal Miners Bull 2X Shares (Ticker: MNM). The Fund seeks to achieve 200% of the daily performance of the S&P Metals and Mining Select Industry Index.

The S&P Metals and Mining Select Industry Index provides exposure to U.S. companies engaged in the extraction of metals and other natural resources. The metals and mining industry includes companies in the following sub-industries: aluminum; coal & consumable fuels; copper; diversified metals & mining; gold; precious metals & minerals; silver; and steel.

"The 5-year, $973B infrastructure plan provides a massive boost to government development. This includes transportation, roads, bridges, passenger and freight rail, public transit, EVs, the electricity grid, broadband and clean water," said David Mazza, Managing Director, Head of Product at Direxion. "As this development continues to evolve, along with an uptick in volatility, the metals and mining industry is one traders may want to consider."

Traders seeking to gain 200% daily exposure to metals and mining stocks, can access companies such as Freeport-McMoRan Inc (FCX), Nucor Corp (NUE), Alcoa Corp (AA) and Steel Dynamics Inc (STLD) and others through this leveraged metals and mining ETF ($MNM). For additional metals and mining stocks, see the table below.

As of August 31, 2021, the 29 constituents had a median total market capitalization of $8 billion, total market capitalizations ranging from $528 million to $53.3 billion, and were concentrated in the metals and mining industry, which is included in the materials sector.

The ETFs do not attempt to, and should not be expected to, provide returns which are a multiple of the return of their respective index for periods other than a single day. For other risks including leverage, correlation, daily compounding, market volatility and risks specific to an industry or sector, please read the prospectus.
