Key Summary

BEAR

MVS

Strategy

BEAR.AX was created on 2012-07-06 by BetaShares. The fund's investment portfolio concentrates primarily on large cap equity. BEAR.AX seeks to generate returns that are negatively correlated to the returns of the Australian sharemarket. The Fund expects to generate a positive return when the S&P/ASX Accumulation 200 Index falls (and a negative return when the index rises).

MVS.AX was created on 2015-05-26 by VanEck. The fund's investment portfolio concentrates primarily on small cap equity. The Fund gives investors exposure to a portfolio that only includes the most liquid small-cap ASX-listed companies that generate revenues in Australia and did not omit their latest dividend payment.
