  • 18/08/2009 Four new strategy index funds launched on Xetra

Strategy indices based on DAX and Dow Jones EURO STOXX 50 as underlyings

    Since Tuesday, four more exchange-traded index funds from the provider ETF Securities have been tradable on the pan-European exchange platform Xetra®. These strategy index funds give investors the opportunity to reap double-leverage benefits from the positive or negative performance of the blue chip indices DAX® and Dow Jones EURO STOXX 50®.

    Benchmark: LevDAX® x2 Index

    The LevDAX x2 Index belongs to the DAXplus® strategy index family calculated by Deutsche Börse and is linked to the movements of the DAX benchmark index with a leverage factor of two.
