Jungle, go to www.rydexfunds.com for more info, there is a
"carpet square" graphic that might be interesting.

The ursa fund RYURX is 100% inverse of S&P.
For Nasdaq 100, you have RYVNX, RYVYX
RYVNX = 2x (1/NDX)
RYVYX = 2x NDX
For nasdaq as whole RYAIX, RYOCX
RYAIX = 2*(1/cmpx)
RYOCX = 2*cmpx

At Schwab these funds have no transaction fee, but an early redemption fee
of min(max(0.75%, $39),200) before 180 days at Schwab.

JI, the Rydex 200% inverse funds have enormous slippage...you have to time your entries and exits precisely to make a decent profit. they're not funds one simply buys and holds. if you intend to take a longer term stance, i'd go for a managed fund like BEARX.
