The class action lawsuit was filed on behalf ofinvestors in the Proshare UltraShort Financials Fund who sufferedinvestment losses. The lawsuit alleges that Proshare Advisors, LLC failedto properly structure the Exchange Traded Fund (ETF) to perform in a mannerwhich was consistent with representations made in the prospectus. In thisinstance, the Proshare UltraShort Financials ETF price failed to move witha 200% inverse correlation relative to the underlying tracking index, theDow Jones U.S. Financials Index (DJI: DJFIX), which resulted in the lossessustained by investors. In fact, the lawsuit asserts that from January 2,2008 through December 17, 2008, the tracking index declined 51.03% whilethe Proshare UltraShort Financials Fund ETF appreciated only 1.06%, insteadof a 102.06% gain which was projected by Proshares Advisors, LLC.Prospective class members should consider whether an individual securitiesarbitration claim filed with the Financial IndustryRegulatory Authority (FINRA) is more effective than a class action forrecovery of their investment losses.
