Yes, BEARX is disappointing right now. I don't quite understand it. A couple of months ago I sold half my BEARX and put the money into RYVNX. This does what it claims to (or almost), which is 200% inverse of the NASDAQ 100.

BEARX did do much better than other bear funds during the 2003 minibull market, for which I am grateful. But RYVNX is the better pure play on a market decline. (And remember, loses twice as much when the market rises). Anyone who has held RYVNX for the past year has been badly hit.
