Important Information

This is not intended to be investment advice. 

Investing involves risk, including the possible loss of principal. This ProShares ETF is subject to certain risks, including imperfect benchmark correlation and market price variance, which may decrease performance. Please see summary and full prospectuses for a more complete description of risks. There is no guarantee any ProShares ETF will achieve its investment objective.

Natural or environmental disasters, including pandemics and epidemics, have been, and can be, highly disruptive to economies and markets and have recently led, and may continue to lead, to increased market volatility and significant market losses.

Investments in the health care equipment and services industry, the software and services industry, and the media and entertainment industry are subject to a number of risks, including risks associated with limited product lines, technological developments, regulatory changes, the impact of research and development costs, and changing consumer preferences.

The fund concentrates its investments in certain sectors. Narrowly focused investments typically exhibit higher volatility.

Investments in non-U.S. securities may involve risks different from U.S. securities, including risks from geographic concentration, differences in valuation and valuation times, unfavorable fluctuations in currency, differences in generally accepted accounting principles, and from economic or political instability.

Investments in emerging markets generally are less liquid, more volatile and riskier than investments in more developed markets and are considered to be speculative.
