Letter to Shareholders (Unaudited)

Dear Shareholders,

This Semi-Annual Report for the Direxion Shares ETF Trust exchange-traded funds (the "ETFs") covers the period from November 1, 2023 to April 30, 2024 (the "Semi-Annual Period").

Market Review:

The Semi-Annual Period began with pressure on equities as bond yields grew and inflation was top of mind for investors. Geopolitical tension also contributed to uncertainty in the markets; the Chinese economy's recovery lagged, the war in Ukraine continued, and the Israeli-Palestinian war began. Despite these headwinds, November 2023 experienced positive returns with the S&P 500 up 8.0%. In particular, rate-sensitive areas like real estate and tech had strong performance, while energy underperformed. The "Magnificent Seven" (Apple Inc., Alphabet Inc., Amazon.com, Inc., Meta Platforms, Inc., Microsoft Corporation, NVIDIA Corporation and Tesla, Inc.) rose to prominence during the Semi-Annual Period as tech rallied. 2023 ended on a bullish note, with all eleven sectors posting positive returns in December. Additionally, small caps had a standout month, with the Russell 2000 up 12.2% in December 2023. 2024 started on a mostly optimistic note for equity markets, although the momentum for small caps did not last. The February core consumer price index reading showed prices up 0.4% month-over-month but was still trending downward and far below its peak. Despite this higher-than-expected inflation, the U.S. economy remained resilient. Contrary to the beginning of the Semi-Annual Period, in March 2024, the energy sector outperformed, while tech underperformed and in April 2024, small caps ended the month in the red. At the end of the Semi-Annual Period, the geopolitical landscape remained rocky and persistent inflation remained a key issue.

After government bonds reached record highs, in November, yields began to decline, which continued through the end of the year, prompting a rally for the bond markets. All eyes were on the Federal Reserve during the Semi-Annual Period as they began to discuss the possibility of rate cuts in light of lower treasury yields, indicating a dovish pivot. Inflation began to ease, but remained at elevated levels that did not reach the Fed's 2% target. At the beginning of 2024, longer term treasury curves increased slightly. The Federal Reserve made no rate cuts by the end of the Semi-Annual Period, indicating the previously anticipated monetary easing would not happen as soon as expected, if at all. As a result of shifting expectations, 2-year and 10-year treasury yields rose in April.

Factors Affecting the ETFs Performance:

Benchmark Performance – The performance of each ETF's benchmark index, and the factors and market conditions implicitly affecting that index, are the primary factors driving ETF performance. The market conditions that affected the benchmark indexes during the period are described in the Market Review section above.

Fees, Expenses, and Transaction Costs – Fees and expenses are listed in each ETF's prospectus and may be higher than many traditional index funds' fees, which cause a greater negative impact on ETF performance. Transaction costs are not included in the expense ratio of the ETFs.

The ETFs Performance Review:

The following discussion relates to the performance of the ETFs for the Semi-Annual Period. The performance of the ETFs for the Semi-Annual Period is important primarily for understanding whether the ETFs meet their investment goals. All ETF returns are NAV (net asset value) returns.

Non-Leveraged ETFs

The Direxion Auspice Broad Commodity Strategy ETF seeks investment results, before fees and expenses, that track the Auspice Broad Commodity Index over a complete market cycle. The Auspice Broad Commodity Index seeks to capture the majority of the commodity upside returns, while seeking to mitigate downside risk. The Auspice Broad Commodity Index

will use a quantitative methodology to track either long or flat positions in a diversified portfolio of 12 different commodity futures contracts, or "components", which cover the energy, metal, and agricultural sectors. It attempts to incorporate dynamic risk management and contract rolling methods. For the Semi-Annual Period, the Auspice Broad Commodity Index returned -0.27%, while the Direxion Auspice Broad Commodity Strategy ETF returned 1.60%.

By the end of the first quarter of 2024, COM was long six out of twelve possible commodities. The rate environment and continued conflict in the Middle East helped propel the Metal sector. The Metal sector had strong performance during the Semi-Annual Period, as Gold reached all-time highs in early 2024, which carried over into strong performance for Silver as well. Conversely, Natural Gas prices remained low, so COM remained out of that market. Agricultural markets also had mixed performance during the Semi-Annual Period, so COM remained mostly on the sidelines here.

The Direxion Hydrogen ETF seeks investment results, before fees and expenses, that track the Indxx Hydrogen Economy Index. The Indxx Hydrogen Economy Index tracks the performance of companies that provide goods and/or services related to the Hydrogen Industry, including hydrogen generation and storage, transportation and supply of hydrogen, fuel cells, and hydrogen fueling stations. The Index includes domestic securities as well as securities listed on various foreign markets, including among others, Japan and South Korea. The Index is reconstituted annually and rebalanced quarterly. For the Semi-Annual Period, the Indxx Hydrogen Economy Index returned -3.07%, while the Direxion Hydrogen ETF returned -3.31%.

Hydrogen remains a priority for many companies and governments, although it was less of a focus in the news cycle during the Semi-Annual Period than it has been previously. The top holdings were Air Liquide Ord (Ticker: AI FP), Bloom Energy Corp (Ticker: BE), and Nel Asa (Ticker: NEL NO), although none of these were the top performers. Kaori Heat Treatment Co (Ticker: 8996 TT) posted the greatest returns during the Semi-Annual Period with 106.97%. Plug Power (Ticker: PLUG) was at the bottom, returning -59.83%.

The Direxion Moonshot Innovators ETF seeks investment results, before fees and expenses, that track the S&P Kensho Moonshots Index. The S&P Kensho Moonshots Index is comprised of 50 U.S. companies that pursue innovative technologies that have the potential to disrupt existing technologies and/or industries (i.e., moonshot innovators) and are considered to have the highest "early-stage composite innovation scores" which is determined based off a natural language processing review of the constituent company's latest annual regulatory filing for the use of words and phrases that are related to innovation. The Index is modified equal-weighted, reconstituted annually, and rebalanced semi-annually. For the Semi-Annual Period, the S&P Kensho Moonshots Index returned 3.09%, while the Direxion Moonshot Innovators ETF returned 2.71%.

During the Semi-Annual Period, Avidity Biosciences Inc (Ticker: RNA) was both the top performer and the top holding in the portfolio. As of April 30, 2024, RNA made up 7.44% of the index by weight and returned 371.29% during the Semi-Annual Period. Similarly, Bluebird Bio Inc (Ticker: BLUE) was both the bottom performer and the smallest holding in the portfolio. As of April 30, 2024, BLUE made up less than 0.50% of the portfolio and returned -69.83% during the Semi-Annual Period.

The Direxion NASDAQ-100®​ Equal Weighted Index Shares seeks investment results, before fees and expenses, that track the NASDAQ-100®​ Equal Weighted Index. The NASDAQ-100®​ Equal Weighted Index is the equal weighted version of the NASDAQ-100®​ Index which includes approximately 100 of the largest domestic and international non-financial companies listed on the NASDAQ®​ Stock Market based on market capitalization selected by NASDAQ, Inc., the index provider. Equal weighting is a method of weighting index stocks whereby the same exposure is provided to both the smallest and largest companies included in the Index. The Index is rebalanced quarterly and reconstituted annually. For the Semi-Annual Period, the NASDAQ-100®​ Equal Weighted Index returned 17.83%, while the Direxion NASDAQ-100®​ Equal Weighted Index Shares returned 19.02%.

The top performer in the portfolio during the Semi-Annual Period was Nvidia Corp (Ticker: NVDA), returning 104.17%. NVDA has been at the forefront of Artificial Intelligence innovation, which has bolstered its stock performance. Doordash (Ticker: DASH), a food delivery company, followed with positive returns of 70.30%. Conversely, the bottom performers were Sirius XM (Ticker: SIRI) and Charter Communications (Ticker: CHTR), returning -33.95% and -37.04%, respectively.

The Direxion Work From Home ETF seeks investment results, before fees and expenses, that track the Solactive Remote Work Index. The Solactive Remote Work Index is comprised of U.S. listed securities and American Depository Receipts (ADRs) of companies that provide products and services in at least one of the following business segments that facilitate the ability of people to work from home: remote communications, cyber security, online project and document management, and cloud computing technologies ("WFH Industries"). The Index consists of approximately 40 companies, namely, the top 10 ranked companies in each of the four WFH Industries. The Index is equal weighted at each semi-annual reconstitution and rebalance date. For the Semi-Annual Period, the Solactive Remote Work Index returned 15.92%, while the Direxion Work From Home ETF returned 16.64%.

The Direxion Work From Home ETF was able to capitalize on continued strength in technology, as nearly 80% of the fund is in the tech sector. Over 40% of workers in the United States still work from home, at least part-time. Digitalocean Holdings Inc. (Ticker: DOCN) and Crowstrike Holdings Inc. (Ticker: CRWD) were the top performers in the portfolio during the Semi-Annual Period, returning 65.79% and 64.03%, respectively. Altice USA Inc (Ticker: ATUS), a telecommunications company, brought up the rear, losing -29.30% over the course of the Semi-Annual Period.

As always, we thank you for using the Direxion Shares ETFs and we look forward to our mutual success.

Best Regards,

The performance data quoted represents past performance. Past performance does not guarantee future results. The investment return and principal value of an investment will fluctuate. An investor's shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance quoted. Returns for performance under one year are cumulative, not annualized. For the most recent month-end performance please visit the Fund's website at direxion.com.

Short-term performance, in particular, is not a good indication of the Fund's future performance, and an investment should not be made based solely on returns. Because of ongoing market volatility, Fund performance may be subject to substantial short-term changes. For additional information, see the Fund's prospectus.

Shares of the Direxion Shares are bought and sold at market price (not NAV) and are not individually redeemed from a Fund. Market Price returns are based upon the midpoint of the bid/ask spread at 4:00 pm EST (when NAV is normally calculated) and do not represent the returns you would receive if you traded shares at other times. Brokerage commissions will reduce returns. Fund returns assume that dividends and capital gains distributions have been reinvested in the Fund at NAV.

Direxion Auspice Broad Commodity Strategy – Commodities and futures generally are volatile and are not suitable for all investors. The value of a commodity-linked derivative investment typically is based upon the price movements of a physical commodity and may be affected by changes in overall market movements, volatility of the underlying index, changes in interest rates, or factors affecting a particular industry or commodity, such as drought, floods, weather, embargoes, tariffs and international economic, political and regulatory developments. Commodity linked derivatives also may be subject to credit and interest rate risks that in general affect the values of debt securities. A Fund's investments in derivatives may pose risks in addition to, and greater than, those associated with directly investing in securities or other investments, including risk related to leverage, imperfect correlations with underlying investments or a Fund's other portfolio holdings, higher price volatility, lack of availability, counterparty risk, liquidity, valuation and legal restrictions. The use of derivatives is a highly specialized activity that involves investment techniques and risks different from those associated with ordinary portfolio securities transactions. Futures contracts are typically exchange traded contracts that call for the future delivery of an asset at a certain price and date, or cash settlement of the terms of the contract. Futures markets are highly volatile and the use of futures may increase the volatility of a Fund. There may be an imperfect correlation between the changes in market value of the securities held by a Fund and the prices of futures contracts. There may not be a liquid secondary market for the futures contracts.

Under amended regulations promulgated by the U.S. Commodities Futures Trading Commission ("CFTC"), a Fund and its Subsidiary are considered commodity pools, and therefore each is subject to regulation under the Commodity Exchange Act and CFTC rules. The Adviser is registered as a commodity pool operator ("CPO") and will manage the Funds and Subsidiaries in accordance with CFTC rules, as well as the rules that apply to registered investment companies, which includes registering both each Fund and its Subsidiary as commodity pools. Registration as a commodity pool subjects the registrant to additional laws, regulations and enforcement policies, all of which may potentially increase compliance costs and may affect the operations and financial performance of each Fund or its Subsidiary. Additionally, a Subsidiary's positions in futures contracts may have to be liquidated at disadvantageous times or prices to prevent a Fund from exceeding any applicable position limits established by the CFTC. Such actions may subject the Fund to substantial losses.

Direxion Shares ETF Risks – An investment in the ETFs involves risk, including the possible loss of principal. The ETFs are subject to certain risks, including imperfect index correlation and market price variance, that may decrease performance. As non-diversified funds, the ETFs may invest in a relatively small number of issuers and, as a result, be subject to greater risk of loss with respect to its portfolio securities. An ETF may concentrate its investments in certain industries or sectors, which can increase volatility. The ETFs may experience greater fluctuation in its net asset value as compared to other investments. These ETFs may be appropriate for investors with a long-term investment time horizon, who primarily seek capital growth, and who are able to tolerate periods of prolonged price declines. Please read each ETF's prospectus for a more complete description of the investment risks. There is no guarantee that an ETF will achieve its investment objective.

The views of this letter were those of the Adviser as of April 30, 2024, and may not necessarily reflect its views on the date this letter is first published or anytime thereafter. These views are intended to help shareholders in understanding the ETFs' present investment methodology and do not constitute investment advice.

Dear Shareholders,

This Semi-Annual Report for the Direxion HCM Tactical Enhanced US ETF (the "Fund") covers the period from November 1, 2023 to April, 30 2024 (the "Semi-Annual Period"). Rafferty Asset Management, LLC serves as adviser to the Fund (the "Adviser") and Howard Capital Management, Inc. serves as the Fund's subadviser (the "Subadviser").

Fund & Market Commentary:

For the Semi-Annual Period, the S&P 500®​ Index returned 19.72%, while the Direxion HCM Tactical Enhanced US ETF returned 21.70%.

The Direxion HCM Tactical Enhanced U.S. ETF ("HCMT") slightly outperformed the major broad U.S. equity benchmarks during the Semi-Annual Period. This was largely due to HCMT having enhanced equity exposure throughout most of this timeframe. The strategy went from Cash to Long during the second week of November based on its rules-based HCM-BuyLine®​ indicator triggering a buy signal. The Fund entered enhanced long positions in the Nasdaq 100, S&P 500, as well as a satellite position within the Technology sector due to it showing the strongest price momentum of any sector. Some of the market rally from November 2023 can be attributed to the Fed announcing at its October meeting that they were done with their rate tightening cycle and potential rate cuts were on the table in 2024. Although that has not yet materialized, overall earnings have been stronger than expected propelling the market higher. Based on the continued upward market price momentum, the strategy continues to maintain a buy signal and remains in an enhanced long equity position.

The Semi-Annual Period began with pressure on equities as bond yields grew and inflation was top of mind for investors. Geopolitical tension also contributed to uncertainty in the markets; the Chinese economy's recovery lagged, the war in Ukraine continued, and the Israeli-Palestinian war began. Despite these headwinds, November 2023 experienced positive returns with the S&P 500 up 8.0%. In particular, rate-sensitive areas like real estate and tech had strong performance, while energy underperformed. The "Magnificent Seven" (Apple Inc., Alphabet Inc., Amazon.com, Inc., Meta Platforms, Inc., Microsoft Corporation, NVIDIA Corporation and Tesla, Inc.) rose to prominence during the Semi-Annual Period as tech rallied. 2023 ended on a bullish note, with all eleven sectors posting positive returns in December. Additionally, small caps had a standout month, with the Russell 2000 up 12.2% in December 2023. 2024 started on a mostly optimistic note for equity markets, although the momentum for small caps did not last. The February core consumer price index reading showed prices up 0.4% month-over-month but was still trending downward and far below its peak. Despite this higher-than-expected inflation, the U.S. economy remained resilient. Contrary to the beginning of the Semi-Annual Period, in March 2024, the energy sector outperformed, while tech underperformed and in April 2024, small caps ended the month in the red. At the end of the Semi-Annual Period, the geopolitical landscape remained rocky and persistent inflation remained a key issue.

After government bonds reached record highs, in November, yields began to decline, which continued through the end of the year, prompting a rally for the bond markets. All eyes were on the Federal Reserve during the Semi-Annual Period as they began to discuss the possibility of rate cuts in light of lower treasury yields, indicating a dovish pivot. Inflation began to ease, but remained at elevated levels that did not reach the Fed's 2% target. At the beginning of 2024, longer term treasury curves increased slightly. The Federal Reserve made no rate cuts by the end of the Semi-Annual Period, indicating the previously anticipated monetary easing would not happen as soon as expected, if at all. As a result of shifting expectations, 2-year and 10-year treasury yields rose in April.

Principal Investment Strategy:

The Fund is actively managed and seeks to provide enhanced returns across multiple market cycles that are broadly correlated to the U.S. equity markets. The Fund uses a proprietary quantitative investment model (the "Model") developed by the Subadviser to determine if the Fund's assets are allocated to U.S. equity securities or to cash and cash equivalents (i.e., money market funds, U.S. government securities and/or similar securities). The Fund will invest in, to have exposure to, U.S. equity securities in order to achieve capital appreciation, or will invest in cash or cash equivalents in order to attempt

DIREXION SEMI-ANNUAL REPORT

to preserve capital during market downturns. When allocated to U.S. equities, the Fund will seek leveraged exposure of its net assets through investments in derivatives, such as swaps, in order to achieve enhanced returns.

The Model attempts to identify broad trends in U.S. equity markets and utilizes the HCM-BuyLine®​, a tactical proprietary indicator that uses technical indicators to identify broad trends in the U.S. equity markets, to determine whether to invest in U.S. equity securities or cash and cash equivalents. When the S&P 500®​ Index hits a specified threshold below the HCM-BuyLine, the Model indicates a downward trend is established and the Fund will be fully invested in cash or cash equivalents in order to attempt to preserve capital. The Fund will continue to have no equity exposure until the Model indicates that an upward trend in the U.S. markets has been established. An upward trend is established when the S&P 500®​ Index closes above the HCM-BuyLine for five consecutive days. The Fund will then be fully invested in U.S. equity securities and will continue to be so invested until the Model indicates that a downward trend has been established.

When the Fund is allocated to U.S. equity securities, it will have approximately the following daily exposures (obtained directly by investing in U.S. equity securities or indirectly through investments in derivatives):

•  80% exposure to all of the securities of the S&P 500®​ Index ("S&P Allocation"), which measures the performance of
500 large capitalization companies listed on stock exchanges in the U.S.;

•  80% exposure to all of the 100 largest, U.S.-based, non-financial companies listed on the NASDAQ Stock Exchange ("Technology Allocation"); and

•  Up to 40% exposure to the securities of a specific sector or industry ("Sector Allocation"). The Sector Allocation will be in one of the following 13 sectors or industries: industrial sector, communication services sector, consumer discretionary sector, consumer staples sector, energy sector, financial sector, health care sector, real estate sector, technology sector, utilities sector, materials sector, biotechnology industry or semiconductor industry.

The Model determines the Sector Allocation based on a proprietary relative strength formula, which evaluates the volatility and momentum of each sector or industry to determine which is experiencing the strongest market trend relative to the other sectors or industries. The sector or industry showing the strongest upward market trend will be selected by the Model as the Sector Allocation. Only one sector or industry is selected by the Model at a time. The Sector Allocation is expected to change in response to shorter-term market conditions, which may result in high portfolio turnover and increased costs. The Fund's exposure to the Sector Allocation may be less than 40% depending on the volatility and liquidity of the equity securities in the relevant sector or industry.

The Fund will utilize leverage to achieve total exposure of up to 200% of the Fund's net assets to the S&P Allocation, Technology Allocation and the Sector Allocation (together, the "Allocations"). A Sector Allocation of less than 40% may result in the Fund having less than 200% total exposure each day. The Subadviser will provide the Adviser, with investment signals ("Signals") pursuant to the Model's determinations. The Adviser is responsible for investing the Fund's assets pursuant to the Signals and may rebalance the Fund's portfolio as frequently as daily when invested in U.S. equity securities so that its exposure to the Allocations is consistent with the Fund's investment strategy.

The Fund may invest directly in the securities of the Allocations, in addition to utilizing exchange-traded funds ("ETFs") and swaps that use indices or ETFs as reference assets to provide exposure to the Allocations. Each Allocation is represented by a securities market index. The Fund intends to seek exposure to the Sector Allocations by investing directly in the securities of the index, investing in an ETF that tracks the performance of the index, or obtaining exposure to the index by investing in a swap that uses the index or an ETF that tracks the performance of the index as a reference asset. On a day-to-day basis, the Fund is expected to hold ETFs and money market funds, deposit accounts with institutions with high quality credit ratings, and/or short-term debt instruments that have terms-to-maturity of less than 397 days and exhibit high quality credit profiles, including U.S. government securities and repurchase agreements. The Fund may invest in securities of any market capitalization.

The first line under each Fund in the table provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first line for your Fund under the heading entitled "Expenses Paid During Period November 1, 2023 to April 30, 2024" to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.

Hypothetical example for comparison purposes

The second line of the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on each Fund's actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Fund's actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in your Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.

Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as brokerage commissions paid on purchases and sales of Fund shares. Therefore, the second line under each Fund in the table is useful in comparing ongoing Fund costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

1  Net investment income (loss) per share represents net investment income divided by the daily average shares of beneficial interest outstanding throughout each period.

2  Excludes interest expense and extraordinary expenses which comprise of tax and litigation expenses.

3  Due to the timing of sales and redemptions of capital shares, the net realized and unrealized gain (loss) per share will not equal the Fund's changes in net realized and unrealized gain (loss) on investments, in-kind redemptions, futures and swaps for the period.

4  Total return is calculated assuming an initial investment made at the net asset value at the beginning of the period, reinvestment of all dividends and distributions at net asset value during the period and redemption on the last day of the period. Total return calculated for a period of less than one year is not annualized. For the year October 31, 2019, the total return would have been lower if certain expenses had not been reimbursed/waived by the Adviser.

5  For periods less than a year, these ratios are annualized.

6  For the year ended October 31, 2019, and the period ended October 31, 2023 for the Direxion HCM Tactical Enhanced US ETF, net expenses include effects of any reimbursement/waiver or recoupment.

7  Portfolio turnover rate is not annualized and excludes the value of portfolio securities received or delivered as a result of in-kind creations or redemptions of the Fund's capital shares. Portfolio turnover rate does not include effects of turnover of the swap and future contracts portfolio. Short-term securities with maturities less than or equal to 366 days are also excluded from portfolio turnover calculation.

Direxion Shares ETF Trust

Notes to the Financial Statements (Unaudited)

April 30, 2024

1.  ORGANIZATION

The Direxion Shares ETF Trust (the "Trust") is a Delaware statutory trust formed on April 23, 2008 and is registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") as an open-end management investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"). The Trust is a registered investment company that has 81 separate series (each, a "Fund" and together the "Funds"). 6 of these Funds are included in this report:

Direxion Auspice Broad Commodity Strategy ETF (Consolidated)

 

Direxion Moonshot Innovators ETF

 

Direxion HCM Tactical Enhanced US ETF

 

Direxion NASDAQ-100®​ Equal Weighted Index Shares

 

Direxion Hydrogen ETF

 

Direxion Work From Home ETF

 

The Trust has evaluated the structure, objective and activities of the Funds and determined that they meet the characteristics of an investment company. As such, these financial statements have applied the guidance as set forth in the Accounting Standards Codifications ("ASC") 946, "Financial Services-Investment Companies".

Rafferty Asset Management, LLC ("Rafferty" or "Adviser") serves as investment adviser to the Funds. Rafferty has registered as a commodity pool operator ("CPO") and the Direxion Auspice Broad Commodity Strategy ETF (Consolidated) and Direxion HCM Tactical Enhanced US ETF are considered commodity pools under the Commodity Exchange Act (the "CEA"). Accordingly, Rafferty is subject to registration and regulation as a CPO under the CEA and must comply with various regulatory requirements under the CEA and the rules and regulations of the Commodity Futures Trading Commission and the National Futures Association, including investor protection requirements, antifraud provisions, disclosure requirements and reporting and recordkeeping requirements.

The Funds seek investment results, before fees and expenses, that track the performance of the underlying index as listed below:

The Direxion Auspice Broad Commodity Strategy ETF (Consolidated) primarily invests in commodity and financial futures contracts directly and/or indirectly through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Direxion BCS Fund Ltd. ("BCS Fund"), in order to track the returns of the Auspice Broad Commodity Index within the limitation of the U.S. federal tax requirements applicable to regulated investment companies.

The Direxion HCM Tactical Enhanced US ETF is actively managed and seeks to provide enhanced returns across multiple market cycles that are broadly correlated to the U.S. equity markets. The Fund uses a proprietary quantitative investment model based on the HCM-BuyLine®​ developed by the Fund's subadvisor, Howard Capital Management, Inc. ("Subadviser"), to determine if the Fund's assets are allocated to U.S. equity securities or to cash and cash equivalents (i.e., money market funds, U.S. government securities and/or similar securities). The Fund will invest in or have exposure to, U.S. equity securities in order to achieve capital appreciation, or will invest in cash or cash equivalents in order to attempt to preserve capital during market downturns. When allocated to U.S. equities, the Fund will seek leveraged exposure of its net assets through investments in derivatives, such as swaps, in order to achieve enhanced returns.

2.  SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Funds in the preparation of their financial statements. These policies are in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP").

a) Investment Valuation – The Net Asset Value ("NAV") per share of each Fund is determined daily, as of the close of regular trading on the NYSE Arca (normally at 4:00 p.m. Eastern time ("Valuation Time")), each day the NYSE is open for business. A security listed or traded on an exchange, domestic or foreign, is valued at its last sales price on the principal exchange on which it is traded prior to the time when assets are valued. If no sale is reported at that time, the mean of the last bid and asked prices is used. Securities primarily traded on the NASDAQ®​ Global Market ("NASDAQ") for which market quotations are readily available are valued using the NASDAQ®​ Official Closing Price ("NOCP") provided by NASDAQ each business day. Over-the-counter ("OTC") securities held by a Fund are valued at the last sales price or, if no sales price is reported, the mean of the last bid and asked price is used. The portfolio securities of a Fund that are listed on national exchanges are valued at the last sales price of such securities or; if no sales price is reported, the mean of the last bid and asked price is used. Swap contracts are valued using the closing price of the underlying reference entity or the closing value of the underlying reference index. The Funds valued their investments in money market funds based on their daily net asset values. If the settlement price established by the exchange reflects trading after the Valuation Time, then the last sales price prior to Valuation Time will be used. Securities and swap contracts are fair valued as determined by Rafferty under the supervision of the Board of Trustees (the "Board") in the following scenarios: a) reliable market quotations are not readily available; b) the Funds' pricing service does not provide a valuation for such securities; c) the Funds' pricing service provides a valuation that in the judgment of Rafferty does not represent fair value; or d) the Fund or Rafferty believes the market price is stale.

b) Swap Contracts – The Direxion HCM Tactical Enhanced US ETF ("HCM") may enter into equity swap contacts. Standard equity swap contracts are between two parties that agree to exchange the returns (or differentials in rates of return) earned or realized on particular predetermined investments or instruments. The gross amount to be exchanged is calculated with respect to a "notional amount" (i.e. the return on or increase in value of a particular dollar amount invested in a "basket" of securities representing a particular index or industry sector). HCM enters into master netting agreements with counterparties to mitigate counterparty credit risk in derivative contracts. HCM does not offset fair value amounts for derivative contracts and related cash collateral on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities arising from derivative contracts executed with the same counterparties under such master netting agreements. HCM's obligations are accrued daily and offset by any amounts owed to HCM.

In a "long" equity swap agreement, the counterparty will generally agree to pay HCM the amount, if any, by which the notional amount of the swap contract would have increased in value if the Fund had been invested in the particular securities, plus dividends that would have been received on those securities. HCM will agree to pay the counterparty a floating rate of interest on the notional amount of the swap contract plus the amount, if any, by which the notional amount would have decreased in value had it been invested in such securities plus, in certain instances, commissions or trading spreads on the notional amounts. Thus, the return on the swap contract should be the gain or loss on the notional amount plus dividends on the securities less the interest and commission paid by HCM on the notional amount. Payments may be made at the conclusion of the contract or periodically during its term. In certain instances, market factors such as the interest rate environment and the demand to borrow the securities underlying the swap agreement can cause a scenario in which the counterparty will pay HCM interest. These swap contracts do not include the delivery of securities by HCM to the counterparty. The net amount of the excess, if any, of the HCM's obligations owed over its entitlement with respect to each swap is accrued on a daily basis and an amount of cash or liquid assets having an aggregate net asset value at least equal to such accrued excess is maintained in a segregated account by HCM's custodian. Until a swap contract is settled in cash, the gain or loss on the notional amount plus dividends on the securities less the interest paid by HCM on the notional amount are recorded as "unrealized appreciation or depreciation on swaps" and when cash is exchanged, the gain or loss is recorded as "realized gains or losses on swaps".

HCM may enter into swap contracts that provide the opposite return of the underlying benchmark or security ("short" the index or security). The operations are similar to that of the swaps disclosed above except that the counterparty pays interest to HCM on the notional amount outstanding and the dividends on the underlying securities reduce the return of the swap. However, in certain instances, market factors such as the interest rate environment and the demand to borrow the securities underlying the swap agreement can cause a scenario in which HCM will pay the counterparty interest. These amounts are netted with any unrealized appreciation or depreciation to determine the value of the swap. HCM will typically enter into equity swap agreements to obtain leverage in order to meet its investment objectives.

Accounting Standards Update No. 2013-01, "Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities" ("ASU 2013-01"), requires entities to disclose (i) gross and net information about both instruments and transactions eligible for offset in the financial statements, and (ii) instruments and transactions subject to an agreement similar to a master netting agreement. ASU 2013-01 is limited in scope to recognized derivative instruments accounted for under ASC 815, "Derivatives and Hedging", to the extent they are offset in the financial statements or subject to an enforceable master netting arrangement of similar agreement.

In order to better define its contractual rights and to secure rights that will help a Fund mitigate its counterparty risk, a Fund may enter into an International Swaps and Derivatives Association, Inc. Master Agreement ("ISDA Master Agreement") or similar agreement with its counterparties. An ISDA Master Agreement is a bilateral agreement between a Fund and a counterparty that governs OTC derivatives, including swap contracts, and typically contains, among other things, collateral posting terms, netting and rights of set-off provisions in the event of a default and/or termination event. Under an ISDA Master Agreement, a Fund may, under certain circumstances, offset with the counterparty certain derivative financial instruments' payables and receivables to create a single net payment. The provisions of the ISDA Master Agreement typically permit a single net payment in the event of a default (close-out netting) or similar event, including the bankruptcy or insolvency of the counterparty.

Collateral requirements generally differ by type of derivative. Collateral terms are contract specific for OTC derivatives (e.g. swaps). Generally, for transactions traded under an ISDA Master Agreement, the collateral requirements are calculated by netting the marked-to-market amount for each transaction under such agreement and comparing that amount to the value of any collateral currently pledged by a Fund and the counterparty. Generally, the amount of collateral due from or to the counterparty must exceed a minimum transfer amount threshold before a transfer is required to be made. To the extent amounts due to a Fund from its derivative counterparties are not fully collateralized, contractually or otherwise, the Fund bears the risk of loss from counterparty non-performance. Interest earned on collateral pledged to a counterparty is presented as part of Interest income on the Statements of Operations. Interest incurred on collateral received from a counterparty is presented as Interest expense on the Statements of Operations.

For financial reporting purposes, HCM elects to not offset assets and liabilities subject to an ISDA Master Agreement, if any, in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. Therefore, all qualifying transactions are presented on a gross basis in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. As of April 30, 2024, the impact of netting of assets and liabilities and the offsetting of collateral pledged or received based on contractual netting/set-off provisions in the ISDA Master Agreement are detailed in the following table.

In the event of the counterparty's default, bankruptcy or any other event for which the counterparty cannot meet its obligations, a Fund bears the risk of loss equal to the amount of the daily appreciation owed to the Fund. This obligation represents the daily gain accrued to the Fund from the close of business day prior to this event to the day on which this event occurs and the counterparty can no longer meet its obligations. A Fund will enter into swap agreements only with large, well-capitalized and established financial institutions. The creditworthiness of each of the firms that is a party to a swap agreement is monitored by the Adviser. Shareholders may obtain swap counterparty financial statements at www.sec.gov. Swap contracts are subject to credit risk. Credit risk occurs when the financial condition of an issuer of a security or instrument may cause it to default or become unable to pay interest or principal due on the security. The counterparty to a swap contract might default on its obligations. In addition, the Funds have agreements with certain counterparties with which it trades swap contracts that contain credit risk-related contingent features that could be triggered subject to certain circumstances. Such circumstances include agreed upon net asset value and performance-based thresholds. The maximum exposure to the Funds in regard to potential counterparty default and credit-risk related contingent features at April 30, 2024 is detailed in the following table. If such credit risk-related contingencies were triggered, the counterparties would have the option to terminate any positions open under the master netting agreement.

c) Futures Contracts – Each Fund may purchase and sell futures contracts. A Fund may use futures contracts to gain exposure to, or hedge against, changes in the values of commodities, equities, interest rates or foreign currencies. Upon entering into a contract, the Fund deposits and maintains as collateral such initial margin as required by the exchange on which the transaction is effected. Pursuant to the contract, the Fund agrees to receive from or pay to the broker an amount of cash equal to the daily fluctuation in value of the contract. Such receipts or payments are known as "variation margin" and are recorded by the Fund as unrealized gains and losses. When the contract is closed, the Fund records a realized gain or loss equal to the difference between the value of the contract at the time it was opened and the value at the time it was closed. As collateral for futures contracts, the Fund is required under the 1940 Act to maintain assets consisting of cash, cash equivalents or liquid securities. This collateral is required to be adjusted daily to reflect the market value of the purchase obligation for long futures contracts or the market value of the instrument underlying the contract, but not less than the market price at which the futures contract was established, for short futures contracts. The Direxion Auspice Broad Commodity Strategy ETF (Consolidated) was invested in futures contracts as of the period ended April 30, 2024.

d) Risks of Futures Contracts, Options on Futures Contracts and Short Positions – The risks inherent in the use of options, futures contracts, options on futures contracts and short positions include 1) adverse changes in the fair value of such instruments; 2) imperfect correlation between the price of options and futures contracts and options thereon and movements in the price of the underlying securities, index or futures contracts; 3) the possible absence of a liquid secondary market for any particular instrument at any time; 4) the possible need to defer closing out certain positions to avoid adverse tax consequences; and 5) the possible non-performance by the counterparty under the terms of the contract. The Funds designate cash, cash equivalents and liquid securities as collateral for written options, futures contracts, options on futures contracts and short positions. The Funds were not invested in any type of options during the period ended April 30, 2024.

e) Risks of Investing in Foreign Securities – Investments in foreign securities involve greater risks than investing in domestic securities. As a result, the Funds' returns and net asset values may be affected to a large degree by fluctuations in currency exchange rates, political, diplomatic or economic conditions and regulatory requirements in other countries. The laws, accounting and financial reporting standards in foreign countries may require less disclosure than required in the U.S., and therefore there may be less public information available about foreign companies. Investments in foreign emerging markets present a greater risk than investing in foreign issuers in general. The risk of political or social upheaval is greater in emerging markets. In addition, there may be risks of an economy's dependence on revenues from particular commodities, currency transfer restrictions, a limited number of potential buyers for such securities and delays and disruption in securities settlement procedures.

f) Foreign Currency Translation – The accounting records of the Funds are maintained in U.S. dollars. The fair value of foreign securities, currency holdings, and other assets and liabilities is recorded in the books and records of the Funds after translation to U.S. dollars based on the exchange rates on that day. The cost of each security is determined using historical exchange rates. Income and withholding taxes are translated at prevailing exchange rates when earned or incurred. The Funds do not isolate that portion of realized or unrealized gains or losses resulting from changes in the foreign exchange rate on investments from fluctuations arising from changes in the market prices of the securities. Such gains and losses are included with the net realized and unrealized gain or loss on investments. Net realized gains and losses on foreign currency transactions represent net realized exchange gains or losses on disposition of foreign currencies, currency gains and losses realized between the trade and settlement dates on securities transactions and the difference between the amount of investment income and foreign withholding taxes recorded on the Fund's books and the U.S. dollar equivalent amounts actually received or paid. Net unrealized appreciation and depreciation of assets and liabilities in foreign currencies arise from changes in the value of assets and liabilities other than investments at the period end, resulting from changes in the exchange rate.

g) Basis for Consolidation – The Direxion Auspice Broad Commodity Strategy ETF may invest up to 25% of its total assets in the BCS Fund. The BCS Fund, which is organized under the laws of the Cayman Islands, is wholly-owned and controlled by the Direxion Auspice Broad Commodity Strategy ETF. The BCS Fund acts as an investment vehicle to facilitate entering into certain investments for the Direxion Auspice Broad Commodity Strategy ETF consistent with the Fund's investment objectives and policies specified in its prospectus and statement of additional information and within the limitation of the U.S. federal tax requirements applicable to regulated investment companies. As of April 30, 2024, the net assets of the Direxion Auspice Broad Commodity Strategy ETF were $269,429,441 of which $36,578,655, or approximately 13.6%, represented the Direxion Auspice Broad Commodity Strategy ETF's ownership of all issued shares and voting rights of the BCS Fund. All intercompany balances, revenues and expenses have been eliminated in consolidation.

h) Risks of Investing Commodity-Linked Derivatives – The Direxion Auspice Broad Commodity Strategy ETF, through its investment in its respective subsidiary, may hold commodity-linked derivatives. Commodity-linked derivatives provide exposure, which may include long and/or short exposure, to the investment returns of physical commodities that trade in the commodities markets without investing directly in physical commodities. The value of a commodity-linked derivative investment typically is based upon the price movements of a physical commodity (such as heating oil, precious metals, livestock, or agricultural products), a commodity futures contract or commodity index, or some other readily measurable economic variable. The value of commodity-linked derivative instruments may be affected by changes in overall market movements, volatility of the underlying benchmark, changes in interest rates, or factors affecting a particular industry or commodity, such as drought, floods, weather, livestock disease, embargoes, tariffs and international economic, political and regulatory developments. The value of commodity-linked derivatives will rise or fall in response to changes in the underlying commodity or related index. Investments in commodity-linked derivatives may be subject to greater volatility than non-derivative based investments. A highly liquid secondary market may not exist for certain commodity-linked derivatives, and there can be no assurance that one will develop. The Direxion Auspice Broad Commodity Strategy ETF held commodity-linked derivatives during the period ended April 30, 2024.

i) Security Transactions – Investment transactions are recorded on the trade date. The Funds determine the gain or loss realized from investment transactions by comparing the identified cost, which is the same basis used for U.S. Federal income tax purposes, with the net sales proceeds.

j) Securities Lending – Each Fund may lend up to 331/3% of the value of the securities in their portfolios to approved brokers, dealers and other financial institutions. The borrower pledges and maintains with the Fund collateral consisting of cash, cash equivalents, or securities issued or guaranteed by the U.S. government. The collateral received by each Fund is required to have a value of at least 102% of the current value of the loaned securities. During the term of the loan, each Fund is entitled to all distributions made on or in respect of the loaned securities but does not receive interest income on securities received as collateral. Each Fund receives compensation for lending its securities from interest or dividends earned on the cash, cash equivalents or U.S. Government securities held as collateral, net of fee rebates paid to borrower and net of fees paid to the lending agent. The amount of fees depends on a number of factors including the security type and the length of the loan. In addition, a Fund will receive a fee from the borrower for non-cash collateral equal to a percentage of the market value of the loaned securities. Loans of securities are terminable at any time and the borrower, after notice, is required to return borrowed securities within the standard time period for settlement of securities transactions. No more than 99% of the value of any security may be on loan at any time.

As of April 30, 2024, all securities on loan were collateralized by cash and/or U.S. government obligations. The cash received as collateral for securities on loan was invested in money market funds, whose maturities are overnight and continuous, and is disclosed in the Schedules of Investments. The securities on loan in each Fund are also disclosed in the Schedule of Investments. The total value of securities loaned and the value of the invested cash collateral are disclosed in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. Non-cash collateral consists of U.S. Treasury securities and is not disclosed on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities as its held by the lending agent on behalf of the Funds, and the Funds do not have the ability to sell, reinvest or pledge those securities. Income earned by the Funds from securities lending is disclosed in the Statements of Operations.

The risks of securities lending include the risk that the borrower may not provide additional collateral when required or may not return the securities when due. To mitigate these risks, the Funds are contractually indemnified with the securities lending agent. Furthermore, the Funds require the value of the securities loaned to be computed daily at the close of the market and additional collateral be furnished, if required.

As of April 30, 2024, the market value of the securities loaned and the related cash and non-cash collateral received for securities lending were as follows:

k) Federal Income Taxes – Each Fund intends to make the requisite distributions of income and capital gains to comply with the requirements of Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, necessary to qualify as a regulated investment company. Therefore, no provision for U.S. Federal income tax has been made by the Funds.

The Funds may be subject to a nondeductible 4% U.S. excise tax calculated as a percentage of certain undistributed amounts of net investment income and net capital gains. No Funds paid this excise tax during the period ended April 30, 2024.

l) Income and Expenses – Interest income, including amortization of premiums and discounts, is recognized on an accrual basis. Distributions are recorded on the ex-dividend date.

The Funds are charged for those expenses that are directly attributable to each series, such as advisory fees. Expenses that are not directly attributable to a series are generally allocated among the Trust's series in proportion to their respective average daily net assets. Expenses are charged to the Funds daily. Expenses are computed based on each Fund's respective average daily net assets. For additional discussion on expenses, refer to Note 6.

m) Distributions to Shareholders – Each Fund pays dividends from net investment income and distributes net realized capital gains, if any, at least annually. Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with U.S. Federal income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. Certain Funds also utilize earnings and profits distributed to shareholders on redemptions of shares as part of the dividends paid deduction. Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date.

n) Guarantees and Indemnifications – In the ordinary course of business, the Funds enter into contracts that contain a variety of indemnification provisions pursuant to which the Funds agree to indemnify third parties upon the occurrence of specified events. The Funds' maximum exposure relating to these indemnification agreements is unknown. However, the Funds have not had prior claims or losses in connection with these provisions and believe the risk of loss is remote.

o) Use of Estimates – The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

3.  INCOME TAX AND DISTRIBUTION INFORMATION

The tax character of distributions paid during the periods ended April 30, 2024 and October 31, 2023 are presented in the following table. The tax character of distributions to shareholders made during the periods may differ from their ultimate characterization for U.S. Federal income tax purposes.

In order to meet certain U.S. excise tax distribution requirements, each Fund is required to measure and distribute annually net capital gains realized during a twelve month period ending October 31 and net investment income earned during a twelve month period ending December 31. In connection with this, these Funds are permitted for tax purposes to defer into their next fiscal year qualified late year losses. Qualified late year ordinary losses are generally losses incurred between January 1 and the end of their fiscal year, October 31, 2023.

At October 31, 2023, the Funds deferred, on a tax basis, no qualified late year losses.

Under current law, each Fund may carry forward net capital losses indefinitely to use to offset capital gains realized in future years and their character is retained as either short-term and/or long-term.

At October 31, 2023, for U.S. Federal income tax purposes, the following Funds had capital loss carryforwards available to offset future capital gains:

The Funds follow authoritative financial reporting rules regarding recognition and measurement of tax positions taken or expected to be taken on a tax return. Management has reviewed all open tax years and concluded that there is no effect to the Funds' financial positions or results of operations and no tax liability was required to be recorded resulting from

unrecognized tax benefits relating to uncertain income tax position taken or expected to be taken on a tax return. The Funds recognize interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense in the Statements of Operations. During this period, the Funds did not incur any interest or penalties. Open tax years are those years that are open for examination by the relevant income taxing authority. As of April 30, 2024, open U.S. Federal and state income tax years include the tax years ended October 31, 2021 through October 31, 2023. The Funds have no examinations in progress. The Funds are also not aware of any tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax expense will significantly change in the next twelve months.

4.  CREATION AND REDEMPTION TRANSACTIONS AND TRANSACTION FEES

Each Fund issues and redeems shares on a continuous basis at NAV only in large blocks of shares called "Creation Units." The number of shares in a Creation Unit for each respective Fund is as follows:

Fund

  Number of shares

Creation Units of the Funds are issued and redeemed in cash and/or in-kind for securities included in the relevant underlying index. Investors such as market makers, large investors and institutions who wish to deal in Creation Units directly with a Fund must have entered into an authorized participant agreement with the principal underwriter and the transfer agent, or purchase through a dealer that has entered into such an agreement. Transactions in shares for each Fund include both cash and in-kind transactions and are disclosed in detail in the Statements of Changes in Net Assets.

Transaction fees are imposed to cover the costs associated with the issuance and redemption of Creation Units. There is a fixed and a variable component to the total transaction fee. A fixed transaction fee is paid to the transfer agent and is applicable to each creation or redemption transaction, regardless of the number of Creation Units purchased or redeemed. In addition, a variable transaction fee equal to a percentage of the value of each Creation Unit purchased or redeemed is applicable to each creation or redemption transaction and is paid to the Fund. Not all Funds will have a transaction fee associated with capital share activity for the year. Transaction fees received by each Fund are presented in the Capital Share Transaction section of the Statements of Changes in Net Assets.

5.  INVESTMENT TRANSACTIONS

The table below presents each Fund's investment transactions during the period ended April 30, 2024. Purchases represent the aggregate purchases of investments excluding the cost of in-kind purchases, short-term investment purchases, swaps and futures contracts. Sales represent the aggregate sales of investments excluding proceeds from in-kind sales, short-term investments, swaps and futures contracts. Purchases in-kind are the aggregate of all in-kind purchases and sales in-kind are the aggregate of all proceeds from in-kind sales. The transactions for each of these categories are as follows:

7.  FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

The Funds follow authoritative fair valuation accounting standards, which establish an authoritative definition of fair value and set out a hierarchy for measuring fair value. These standards require additional disclosures about the various inputs and valuation techniques used to develop the measurements of fair value and a discussion of changes in valuation techniques and related inputs during the period. These inputs are summarized in the three broad levels below:

Level 1 – Quoted prices in active markets for identical securities

Level 2 – Evaluated price based on other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar securities in inactive markets, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.)

Level 3 – Significant unobservable inputs (including the Fund's own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments)

The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.

The following is a summary of the inputs used to value the Funds' investments at April 30, 2024:

*  Futures contracts and total return swap contracts are valued at the unrealized appreciation/(depreciation).

The Funds also follow authoritative accounting standards, which require additional disclosure regarding fair value measurements. Specifically, these standards require reporting entities to disclose a) the input and valuation techniques used to measure fair value for both recurring and nonrecurring fair value measurements, for Level 2 or Level 3 positions, b) transfers between all levels (including Level 1 and Level 2) on a gross basis (i.e. transfers out must be disclosed separately from transfers in) as well as the reason(s) for the transfers and c) purchases and sales on a gross basis in the Level 3 rollforward rather than as one net number. Additionally, reporting entities are required to disclose quantitative information about unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurements categorized within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.

There were no Level 3 securities held by the Funds or any transfers between levels during the period ended April 30, 2024.

8.  VALUATION OF DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS

The Funds follow authoritative standards of accounting for derivative instruments, which establish disclosure requirements for derivative instruments. These standards improve financial reporting for derivative instruments by requiring enhanced disclosures that enable investors to understand how and why a fund uses derivative instruments, how derivative instruments are accounted for and how derivative instruments affect a fund's financial position and results of operations.

Certain Funds use derivative instruments as part of their principal investment strategy to achieve their investment objective. For additional discussion on the risks associated with derivative instruments refer to Note 2. As of April 30, 2024, certain

9.  PRINCIPAL RISKS

Below are some of the principal risks of investing in the Funds. Please refer to the Funds' prospectus for a full discussion.

Counterparty Risk – A Fund will be subject to credit risk with respect to the amount it expects to receive from counterparties to financial instruments entered into by the Fund. The Funds' counterparties are generally required to post collateral to the Funds to the extent of the Funds' daily exposure to such counterparties. However, to the extent any such collateral is insufficient, the Funds will be exposed to counterparty risk as described in this paragraph. In addition, there may be a delay associated with realization by the Funds of the collateral posted by such counterparties in the event of counterparty default or bankruptcy. A Fund may be negatively impacted if a counterparty becomes bankrupt or otherwise fails to perform its

DIREXION SEMI-ANNUAL REPORT
45


obligations due to financial difficulties. A Fund may experience significant delays in obtaining any recovery in a bankruptcy or other reorganization proceeding, and a Fund may obtain only limited recovery or may obtain no recovery in such circumstances.

Sector Concentration Risk – The risk of concentrating investments in a limited number of issuers in a particular industry is that a Fund will be more susceptible to the risks associated with that industry than a Fund that does not concentrate its investments.

Daily Index Correlation/Tracking Risk – A number of factors may affect a Fund's ability to achieve a high degree of correlation with its benchmark, and there can be no guarantee that a Fund will achieve a high degree of correlation. A failure to achieve a high degree of correlation may prevent a Fund from achieving its investment objective. A number of factors may adversely affect a Fund's correlation with its benchmark, including fees, expenses, transaction costs, costs associated with the use of leveraged investment techniques, income items, accounting standards, and disruptions or illiquidity in the markets for the securities or financial instruments in which the Fund invests. A Fund may not have investment exposure to all securities in its underlying benchmark index, or its weighting of investment exposure to such stocks or industries may be different from that of the index. In addition, a Fund may invest in securities or financial instruments not included in the index underlying its benchmark. A Fund may be subject to large movements of assets into and out of the Fund, potentially resulting in the Fund being over- or under-exposed to its benchmark. Activities surrounding annual index reconstitutions and other index rebalancing or reconstitution events may hinder the Funds' ability to meet their daily investment objective on that day. Each Fund seeks to rebalance its portfolio daily to keep leverage consistent with its daily investment objective.

Derivatives Risk – The Fund's investments in derivatives may pose risks in addition to, and greater than, those associated with directly investing in securities or other investments, including risk related to the market, leverage, imperfect daily correlations with underlying investments or the Fund's other portfolio holdings, higher price volatility, lack of availability, counterparty risk, liquidity, valuation and legal restrictions.

In addition, the Fund's investments in derivatives are subject to the following risks:

•  Swap Agreements. Swap agreements are entered into primarily with major global financial institutions for a specified period which may range from one day to more than one year. In a standard swap transaction, two parties agree to exchange the return (or differentials in rates of return) earned or realized on particular predetermined reference assets or underlying securities or instruments. The gross return to be exchanged or swapped between the parties is calculated based on a notional amount or the return on or change in value of a particular dollar amount invested in a basket of securities representing a particular index or an ETF that seeks to track an index. Swaps are subject to counterparty, valuation and leveraging risks.

•  Futures Contracts. Futures contracts are typically exchange-traded contracts that call for the future delivery of an asset at a certain price and date, or cash settlement of the terms of the contract. There may be an imperfect correlation between the changes in market value of the securities held by the Fund and the prices of futures contracts. Futures contracts are subject to liquidity risks; there may not be a liquid secondary market for the futures contracts and the Fund may not be able to enter into a closing transaction. Exchanges may also limit the number of positions that can be held or controlled by the Fund or the Adviser, thus limiting the ability of the Fund to implement its leveraged investment strategy. Futures markets are highly volatile and the use of futures may increase the Fund's volatility. Futures contracts are also subject to leverage risk.

Foreign Securities Risk – Investments in foreign securities directly or indirectly through investments in exchange traded funds which track foreign securities involve greater risks than investing in domestic securities. As a result, the Funds' returns and net asset values may be affected to a large degree by fluctuations in currency exchange rates, political, diplomatic or economic conditions and regulatory requirements in other countries. The laws, accounting and financial reporting standards in foreign countries may require less disclosure than required in the U.S., and therefore there may be less public information available about foreign companies. Investments in foreign emerging markets present a greater risk than investing in foreign issuers in general. The risk of political or social upheaval is greater in emerging markets. In addition, there may be risks of an economy's dependence on revenues from particular commodities, currency transfer restrictions, a limited number of potential buyers for such securities and delays and disruption in securities settlement procedures.

DIREXION SEMI-ANNUAL REPORT
46


Currency Exchange Rate Risk Changes in foreign currency exchange rates will affect the value of the Fund's investments in securities denominated in a country's currency. Generally, when the U.S. Dollar rises in value against a foreign currency, an investment in that country loses value because that currency is worth fewer U.S. Dollars. Devaluation of a currency by a country's government or banking authority also will have a significant impact on the value of any investments denominated in that currency. If the Fund is exposed to a limited number of currencies, any change in the value of these currencies could have a material impact on the Fund's net asset value.

Liquidity Risk – In certain circumstances, such as the disruption of the orderly markets for the securities or financial instruments in which a Fund invests, a Fund might not be able to dispose of certain holdings quickly or at prices that represent fair market value in the judgment of the Adviser. Additionally, certain counterparties may have the ability to demand repayment at any time, thereby exposing the Fund to the risk that it may be required to liquidate investments at an inopportune time. This may prevent a Fund from limiting losses, realizing gains or from achieving a high correlation or inverse correlation with its underlying index.

10.  SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

The Board of Trustees of the Trust has determined, upon the recommendation of the Adviser, that it is in the best interests of each Fund and its shareholders to liquidate and terminate the Direxion Hydrogen ETF and Direxion Moonshot Innovators ETF ("Liquidating Funds"). The Liquidating Funds will be closed to purchases by investors as of the close of regular trading on the NYSE on July 19, 2024. In order to pursue an orderly liquidation, each of the Liquidating Fund's assets will be converted to cash or cash equivalents and, as a result, each of the Liquidating Funds will no longer pursue its stated investment objectives after the close of trading on June 21, 2024. The Liquidating Funds will be liquidated on July 30, 2024 (the "Liquidation Date"). After the Liquidation Date, any shareholder who has not redeemed shares of the Fund prior to the Liquidation Date will receive a payment representing the shareholder's proportionate interest in the net assets of the Fund as of the Liquidation Date.

Letter to Shareholders

Dear Shareholders,

This Semi-Annual Report for the Direxion Shares ETF Trust exchange-traded funds (the "ETFs") covers the period from November 1, 2023 to April 30, 2024 (the "Semi-Annual Period").

Market Review:

The Semi-Annual Period began with pressure on equities as bond yields grew and inflation was top of mind for investors. Geopolitical tension also contributed to uncertainty in the markets; the Chinese economy's recovery lagged, the war in Ukraine continued, and the Israeli-Palestinian war began. Despite these headwinds, November 2023 experienced positive returns with the S&P 500 up 8.0%. In particular, rate-sensitive areas like real estate and tech had strong performance, while energy underperformed. The "Magnificent Seven" (Apple Inc., Alphabet Inc., Amazon.com, Inc., Meta Platforms, Inc., Microsoft Corporation, NVIDIA Corporation and Tesla, Inc.) rose to prominence during the Semi-Annual Period as tech rallied. 2023 ended on a bullish note, with all eleven sectors posting positive returns in December. Additionally, small caps had a standout month, with the Russell 2000 up 12.2% in December 2023. 2024 started on a mostly optimistic note for equity markets, although the momentum for small caps did not last. The February core consumer price index reading showed prices up 0.4% month-over-month but was still trending downward and far below its peak. Despite this higher-than-expected inflation, the U.S. economy remained resilient. Contrary to the beginning of the Semi-Annual Period, in March 2024, the energy sector outperformed, while tech underperformed and in April 2024, small caps ended the month in the red. At the end of the Semi-Annual Period, the geopolitical landscape remained rocky and persistent inflation remained a key issue.

After government bonds reached record highs, in November, yields began to decline, which continued through the end of the year, prompting a rally for the bond markets. All eyes were on the Federal Reserve during the Semi-Annual Period as they began to discuss the possibility of rate cuts in light of lower treasury yields, indicating a dovish pivot. Inflation began to ease, but remained at elevated levels that did not reach the Fed's 2% target. At the beginning of 2024, longer term treasury curves increased slightly. The Federal Reserve made no rate cuts by the end of the Semi-Annual Period, indicating the previously anticipated monetary easing would not happen as soon as expected, if at all. As a result of shifting expectations, 2-year and 10-year treasury yields rose in April.

Direxion Shares Operational Review:

The discussion below relates to the performance of the ETFs for the Semi-Annual Period. The ETFs are leveraged, inverse, or inverse leveraged and seek daily investment results, before fees and expenses, of 200%, -100% or -200% of the performance of a particular benchmark. All ETF returns are NAV (net asset value) returns.

The ETFs, as stated above, seek daily investment results. They do not seek to track a multiple, inverse, or inverse multiple of their respective benchmarks for periods longer than one day and the performance of the ETFs over longer periods may not correlate to their benchmarks' performance. The ETFs should not be held by investors for long periods and should be used as short-term trading vehicles. These products are not suitable for all investors and should be utilized only by sophisticated investors who understand the risks associated with shorting and/or the use of leverage, the consequences of seeking daily leveraged or inverse investment results and intend to actively monitor and manage their investments.

The ETFs with the word "Bull" in their name (the "Bull ETFs"), attempt to provide investment results that correlate to 200%, before fees and expenses, of the daily performance of a benchmark index, meaning the Bull Funds attempt to move in the same direction as their respective target benchmark index.

The Funds with the word "Bear" in their name (the "Bear ETFs"), attempt to provide investment results that correlate to -100% or -200%, before fees and expenses, of the daily performance of a benchmark index, meaning that the Bear Funds attempt to move in the opposite, or inverse, direction of their respective target benchmark index.

In seeking to achieve each ETF's daily investment results, Rafferty Asset Management, LLC ("Rafferty" or the "Adviser"), relies upon a pre-determined investment model to generate orders resulting in repositioning each ETF's investments in accordance with its daily investment objective. Using this approach, Rafferty determines the type, quantity and mix of investment positions that it believes in combination should produce daily returns consistent with an ETF's objective. As a consequence, if an ETF is performing as designed, the return of the benchmark index will dictate the return for that ETF. Each ETF pursues its investment objective regardless of market conditions and does not take defensive positions.

Each leveraged ETF has a clearly articulated goal which requires the ETF to seek economic exposure significantly in excess of its net assets. To meet its objectives, each ETF invests in some combination of financial instruments, including derivatives. Each ETF invests significantly in derivatives, including swap agreements. Rafferty uses these types of investments to produce economically "leveraged" investment results. Leveraging allows Rafferty to generate a greater positive or negative return than what would be generated on the invested capital without leverage, thus changing small market movements into larger changes in the value of the investments of an ETF.

The ETFs may use certain investment techniques, including investments in derivatives, which may be considered aggressive. Investments in derivatives in general are subject to market risks that may cause their prices to fluctuate dramatically over time. Additionally, use of such instruments may increase the volatility of the ETFs. The use of derivatives may expose the ETFs to additional risks that they would not be subject to if they invested directly in the securities underlying those derivatives, such as counterparty risk. The use of derivatives may result in larger losses or smaller gains than otherwise would be the case.

Because each ETF seeks daily investment results of its relevant benchmark, a comparison of the return of the ETF to the relevant benchmark tells you little about whether an ETF has met its investment objective. To determine if an ETF has met its daily investment goals, Rafferty maintains models which indicate the expected performance of each ETF as compared to the underlying relevant index. The models do not take into account the ETF's expense ratio or any transaction or trading fees associated with creating or maintaining an ETF's portfolio. Deviation from the model may be due to a combination of asset fluctuation, expenses, transaction costs, including swap contract related costs and underlying index volatility.

Factors Affecting Direxion Shares Performance:

Benchmark Performance – The daily performance of each ETF's benchmark index, and the factors and market conditions implicitly affecting that index, are the primary factors driving ETF performance. Given the daily goals, the series of daily index returns are most important. The market conditions that affected the benchmark indexes during the past year are described below.

Leverage – Each 200% or -200% ETF seeks daily investment results (before fees and expenses) of either 200% (for the Bull ETFs) or -200% (for the 2X Bear ETFs) of the daily performance of its respective underlying index. The use of leverage magnifies an ETF's gains or losses and increases the investment's risk and volatility. The Bear ETFs seek to achieve inverse magnified correlation to their respective underlying indexes.

Volatility and Compounding – The goal of leveraged ETFs is to provide a multiple of the daily return of an underlying index. Over periods longer than a single day, an ETF should not be expected to provide its respective multiple of the return of the underlying index. Due to the effects of compounding, a universal mathematical concept that applies to all investments, returns of the ETFs over longer periods are greater or less than the ETF's daily stated goal. Periods of high volatility that lack a clear trend hurt an ETF's performance while trending, low volatility markets enhance an ETF's performance.

Cost of Financing – In order to attain leveraged exposure, a Bull ETF incurs a cost of SOFR plus or minus a spread and a Bear ETF receives SOFR plus or minus a spread as applied to the borrowed portion of the ETF's exposure. The spread varies by both Fund and counterparty and is a function of market demand, hedging costs, access to balance sheet, borrow volatility, current counterparty exposure and administrative costs associated with the swap counterparty. Generally for most of the Bull ETFs, the financing costs will have a negative effect on tracking, but for Bear ETFs, the financing cost will have a positive effect on tracking. An increase in interest rates which effects the cost of financing will further impact an ETF's performance and ability to track its index.

Optimized Baskets – Each Bull ETF holds a basket of equities designed to provide returns that track its underlying index. In order to decrease transaction costs, certain Bull ETFs hold only a representative sample, or optimized basket, that tracks closely over time, but deviates from its underlying index in the short-term.

Equity Dividends and Bond Interest – Bull ETFs are positively impacted by equity and index dividends as the ETFs receive those payments. Bear ETFs are negatively impacted as they are obligated to pay the dividends.

Fees, Expenses, and Transaction Costs – Fees and expenses are listed in each ETF's prospectus and may be higher than many traditional index ETFs' fees, which cause a greater negative impact on ETF performance. Transactions costs are not included in the expense ratio of the ETFs. Transaction costs can be higher due to the ETF's use of leverage, frequent creation and redemption activity, or trading securities that are comparatively less liquid.

Direxion Shares Performance Review:

The Direxion Daily CSI 300 China A Share Bull 2X Shares seeks to provide 200% of the daily return of the CSI 300 Index.

For the Semi-Annual Period, the CSI 300 Index returned 1.32%. Given the daily investment objectives of the ETF and the path dependency of returns for longer periods, the annual return of the index alone should not generate expectations of annual performance of the ETF. The Direxion Daily CSI 300 China A Share Bull 2X Shares returned -1.11%, while the model indicated an expected return 1.05%.

The Direxion Daily CSI China Internet Index Bull 2X Shares seeks to provide 200% of the daily return of the CSI Overseas China Internet Index.

For the Semi-Annual Period, the BlueStar®​ Travel and Vacation Index returned 24.60%. Given the daily investment objectives of the ETF and the path dependency of returns for longer periods, the annual return of the index alone should not generate expectations of annual performance of the ETF. The Direxion Daily Travel & Vacation Bull 2X Shares returned 46.07%, while the model indicated an expected return of 52.83%.

As always, we thank you for using the Direxion Shares ETFs and we look forward to our mutual success.

Leveraged and Inverse ETFs pursue daily leveraged investment objectives which means they are riskier than alternatives which do not use leverage. They seek daily goals and should not be expected to track the underlying index over periods longer than one day. They are not suitable for all investors and should be utilized only by sophisticated investors who understand leverage risk and who actively manage their investments. The performance data quoted represents past performance. Past performance does not guarantee future results. The investment return and principal value of an investment will fluctuate. An investor's shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance quoted. Returns for performance under one year are cumulative, not annualized. For the most recent month-end performance please visit the Funds website at direxion.com.

Short-term performance, in particular, is not a good indication of the Fund's future performance, and an investment should not be made based solely on returns. Because of ongoing market volatility, Fund performance may be subject to substantial short-term changes. For additional information, see the Fund's prospectus.

Shares of the Direxion Shares are bought and sold at market price (not NAV) and are not individually redeemed from a Fund. Market Price returns are based upon the midpoint of the bid/ask spread at 4:00 pm EST (when NAV is normally calculated) and do not represent the returns you would receive if you traded shares at other times. Brokerage commissions will reduce returns. Fund returns assume that dividends and capital gains distributions have been reinvested in the Fund at NAV. Some performance results reflect expense reimbursements or recoupments and fee waivers in effect during certain periods shown. Absent these reimbursements or recoupments and fee waivers, results would have been less favorable.

SOFR (Secured Overnight Financing Rate) is a broad measure of the cost of borrowing cash overnight collateralized by Treasury securities.

Direxion Shares Risks – An investment in the ETFs involves risk, including the possible loss of principal. The ETFs are non-diversified and include risks associated with concentration risk that results from the ETFs' investments in a particular industry or sector which can increase volatility. The use of derivatives such as futures contracts, forward contracts, options and swaps are subject to market risks that may cause their price to fluctuate over time. The ETFs do not attempt to, and should not be expected to; provide returns which are the inverse or a multiple of the return of their respective underlying index for periods other than a single day. For other risks including correlation, leverage, compounding, market volatility and specific risks regarding each sector, please read each ETF's prospectus.

Letter to Single Stock Shareholders

Dear Shareholders,

This Semi-Annual Report for the Direxion Shares ETF Trust exchange-traded funds (the "ETFs") covers the period from November 1, 2023 to April 30, 2024 (the "Semi-Annual Period").

Market Review:

The Semi-Annual Period began with pressure on equities as bond yields grew and inflation was top of mind for investors. Geopolitical tension also contributed to uncertainty in the markets; the Chinese economy's recovery lagged, the war in Ukraine continued, and the Israeli-Palestinian war began. Despite these headwinds, November 2023 experienced positive returns with the S&P 500 up 8.0%. In particular, rate-sensitive areas like real estate and tech had strong performance, while energy underperformed. The "Magnificent Seven" (Apple Inc., Alphabet Inc., Amazon.com, Inc., Meta Platforms, Inc., Microsoft Corporation, NVIDIA Corporation and Tesla, Inc.) rose to prominence during the Semi-Annual Period as tech rallied. 2023 ended on a bullish note, with all eleven sectors posting positive returns in December. Additionally, small caps had a standout month, with the Russell 2000 up 12.2% in December 2023. 2024 started on a mostly optimistic note for equity markets, although the momentum for small caps did not last. The February core consumer price index reading showed prices up 0.4% month-over-month but was still trending downward and far below its peak. Despite this higher-than-expected inflation, the U.S. economy remained resilient. Contrary to the beginning of the Semi-Annual Period, in March 2024, the energy sector outperformed, while tech underperformed and in April 2024, small caps ended the month in the red. At the end of the Semi-Annual Period, the geopolitical landscape remained rocky and persistent inflation remained a key issue.

After government bonds reached record highs, in November, yields began to decline, which continued through the end of the year, prompting a rally for the bond markets. All eyes were on the Federal Reserve during the Semi-Annual Period as they began to discuss the possibility of rate cuts in light of lower treasury yields, indicating a dovish pivot. Inflation began to ease, but remained at elevated levels that did not reach the Fed's 2% target. At the beginning of 2024, longer term treasury curves increased slightly. The Federal Reserve made no rate cuts by the end of the Semi-Annual Period, indicating the previously anticipated monetary easing would not happen as soon as expected, if at all. As a result of shifting expectations, 2-year and 10-year treasury yields rose in April.

Direxion Shares Operational Review:

The discussion below relates to the performance of the ETFs for the Semi-Annual Period. The ETFs are leveraged or inverse and seek daily investment results, before fees and expenses, of 200% or -100% (opposite or inverse) of the performance of a particular security. All ETF returns are NAV (net asset value) returns.

The ETFs, as stated above, seek daily investment results. They do not seek to track the inverse or a multiple of their respective underlying security for periods of longer than one day, and the performance of the ETFs over longer periods may not correlate to their underlying security's performance. The ETFs should not be held by investors for long periods and should be used as short-term trading vehicles. These products are not suitable for all investors and should be utilized only by sophisticated investors who understand the risks associated with shorting and/or the use of leverage, the consequences of seeking daily investment results and intend to actively monitor and manage their investments.

Effective April 2, 2024, the ETFs with the word "Bull" in their name (the "Bull ETFs") attempt to provide investment results that correlate to 200%, before fees and expenses, of the daily performance of an underlying security, meaning the Bull Funds attempt to move in the same direction as their respective target underlying security. Prior to April 2, 2024, the Bull ETFs attempted to provide investment results that correlated to 150%, before fees and expenses, of the daily performance of an underlying security.

DIREXION SEMI-ANNUAL REPORT
11


The Funds with the word "Bear" in their name (the "Bear ETFs") attempt to provide investment results that correlate to -100%, before fees and expenses, of the daily performance of an underlying security, meaning that the Bear Funds attempt to move in the opposite, or inverse, direction of their respective target underlying security.

In seeking to achieve each ETF's daily investment results, Rafferty Asset Management, LLC ("Rafferty" or the "Adviser"), relies upon a pre-determined investment model to generate orders resulting in repositioning each ETF's investments in accordance with its daily investment objective. Using this approach, Rafferty determines the type, quantity and mix of investment positions that it believes in combination should produce daily returns consistent with an ETF's objective. As a consequence, if an ETF is performing as designed, the return of the underlying security will dictate the return for that ETF. Each ETF pursues its investment objective regardless of market conditions and does not take defensive positions.

Each leveraged ETF has a clearly articulated goal which requires the ETF to seek economic exposure significantly in excess of its net assets. To meet its objective, each ETF invests in some combination of financial instruments, including derivatives. Each ETF invests significantly in derivatives, including swap agreements. Rafferty uses these types of investments to produce economically "leveraged" investment results. Leveraging allows Rafferty to generate a greater positive or negative return than what would be generated on the invested capital without leverage, thus changing small market movements into larger changes in the value of the investments of an ETF.

The ETFs may use certain investment techniques, including investments in derivatives, which may be considered aggressive. Investments in derivatives in general are subject to market risks that may cause their prices to fluctuate dramatically over time. Additionally, use of such instruments may increase the volatility of the ETFs. The use of derivatives may expose the ETFs to additional risks that they would not be subject to if they invested directly in the securities underlying those derivatives, such as counterparty risk. The use of derivatives may result in larger losses or smaller gains than otherwise would be the case.

Because each ETF seeks daily investment results of a particular underlying security, a comparison of the return of the ETF to the relevant common shares of the underlying security tells you little about whether an ETF has met its investment objective. To determine if an ETF has met its daily investment goals, Rafferty maintains models which indicate the expected performance of each ETF as compared to the respective underlying security. The models do not take into account the ETF's expense ratio or any transaction or trading fees associated with creating or maintaining an ETF's portfolio. Deviation from the model may be due to a combination of asset fluctuation, expenses, transaction costs, including swap contract related costs and underlying volatility.

Factors Affecting the ETFs' Performance:

Benchmark Performance – The daily performance of each ETF's underlying security, and the factors and market conditions implicitly affecting that underlying security, are the primary factors driving ETF performance. Given the daily goals, the series of daily underlying security returns are most important. The market conditions that affected the underlying security during the past year are described below.

Leverage – Each Bull ETF seeks daily investment results (before fees and expenses) of 200% of the performance of its respective underlying security. Prior to April 2, 2024, each Bull ETF sought daily investment results (before fees and expenses) of 150% of the performance of its respective underlying security. The use of leverage magnifies an ETF's gains or losses and increases the investment's risk and volatility.

Volatility and Compounding – The goal of leveraged ETFs is to provide a multiple of the daily return of a particular underlying security. Over periods longer than a single day, an ETF should not be expected to provide its respective multiple of the return of the particular underlying security. Due to the effects of compounding, a universal mathematical concept that applies to all investments, returns of the ETFs over longer periods are greater or less than the ETF's daily stated goal. Periods of high volatility that lack a clear trend hurt an ETF's performance while trending, low volatility markets enhance an ETF's performance.

DIREXION SEMI-ANNUAL REPORT
12


Cost of Financing – In order to attain leveraged exposure, a Bull ETF incurs a cost of SOFR plus or minus a spread and a Bear ETF receives SOFR plus or minus a spread as applied to the borrowed portion of the ETF's exposure. The spread varies by both Fund and counterparty and is a function of market demand, hedging costs, access to balance sheet, borrow volatility, current counterparty exposure and administrative costs associated with the swap counterparty. Generally, for most of the Bull ETFs, the financing costs will have a negative effect on tracking, but for Bear ETFs, the financing cost will have a positive effect on tracking. An increase in interest rates, which affects the cost of financing, will further impact an ETF's performance and ability to track its underlying security.

Equity Dividends and Bond Interest – Bull ETFs are positively impacted by equity and common shares dividends as the ETFs receive those payments. Bear ETFs are negatively impacted as they are obligated to pay the dividends.

Fees, Expenses, and Transaction Costs – Fees and expenses are listed in each ETF's prospectus and may be higher than many traditional ETFs' fees, which cause a greater negative impact on ETF performance. Transactions costs are not included in the expense ratio of the ETFs. Transaction costs can be higher due to the ETF's use of leverage, frequent creation and redemption activity, or trading securities that are comparatively less liquid.

Direxion Shares Performance Review:

The Direxion Daily AAPL Bull 2X Shares and the Direxion Daily AAPL Bear 1X Shares seek daily investment results, before fees and expenses, of 200% or -100%, respectively, of the performance of the common shares of Apple Inc. (NASDAQ: AAPL). Apple Inc. designs, manufactures, and markets smartphones, personal computers, tablets, wearables, and accessories worldwide. It also sells various related services. For the Semi-Annual Period, the common shares of Apple Inc. returned -1.84%. Given the daily investment objectives of the ETFs and the path dependency of returns for longer periods, the annual return of the common shares alone should not generate expectations of annual performance of the ETFs. From November 1, 2023 through April 1, 2024, the Direxion Daily AAPL Bull 2X Shares (formerly, the Direxion Daily AAPL Bull 1.5X Shares) returned -6.06%, while the model indicated an expected return of -3.53%.

The company operates through three segments: North America, International, and Amazon Web Services. For the Semi-Annual Period, the common shares of Amazon.com, Inc. returned 27.74%. Given the daily investment objectives of the ETFs and the path dependency of returns for longer periods, the annual return of the common shares alone should not generate expectations of annual performance of the ETFs.

For the Semi-Annual Period, the common shares of Alphabet Inc. returned 28.73%. Given the daily investment objectives of the ETFs and the path dependency of returns for longer periods, the annual return of the common shares alone should not generate expectations of annual performance of the ETFs.

Microsoft Corporation develops, licenses, and supports software, services, devices, and solutions worldwide. For the Semi-Annual Period, the common shares of Microsoft Corporation returned 12.94%.

Investing in the funds involves a high degree of risk. Unlike traditional ETFs, or even other leveraged and/or inverse ETFs, these leveraged and/or inverse single-stock ETFs track the price of a single stock rather than an index, eliminating the benefits of diversification. Leveraged and inverse ETFs pursue daily leveraged investment objectives, which means they are riskier than alternatives which do not use leverage. They seek daily goals and should not be expected to track the underlying stock's performance over periods longer than one day. They are not suitable for all investors and should be utilized only by investors who understand leverage risk and who actively manage their investments. The Funds will lose money if the underlying stock's performance is flat, and it is possible that the Bull Fund will lose money even if the underlying stock's performance increases, and the Bear Fund will lose money even if the underlying stock's performance decreases, over a period longer than a single day. An investor could lose the full principal value of his or her investment in a single day.

Expense Example (Unaudited)

April 30, 2024

As a shareholder of the Direxion Shares ETF Trust, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, for purchasing and selling shares and exchange fees; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees; and other Fund expenses. This example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in a fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other funds.

The example is based on initial investments of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held the entire period (November 1, 2023 to April 30, 2024).

Actual Expenses

The first line under each Fund in the table provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first line for your Fund under the heading entitled "Expenses Paid During Period November 1, 2023 to April 30, 2024" to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.

Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes

The second line of the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on each Fund's actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Fund's actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in your Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.

Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as brokerage commissions paid on purchases and sales of Fund shares. Therefore, the second line under each Fund in the table is useful in comparing ongoing Fund costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

1  Net investment income (loss) per share represents net investment income divided by the daily average shares of beneficial interest outstanding throughout each period.

2  Excludes interest expense and extraordinary expenses which comprise of tax and litigation expenses.

3  Due to the timing of sales and redemptions of capital shares, the net realized and unrealized gain (loss) per share will not equal the Fund's changes in net realized and unrealized gain (loss) on investments, in-kind redemptions, futures and swaps for the period.

4  Total return is calculated assuming an initial investment made at the net asset value at the beginning of the period, reinvestment of all dividends and distributions at net asset value during the period and redemption on the last day of the period. Total return calculated for a period of less than one year is not annualized. The total return would have been lower if certain expenses had not been reimbursed/waived or recouped by the investment advisor.

5  For periods less than a year, these ratios are annualized.

6  Net expenses include effects of any reimbursement/waiver or recoupment.

7  Portfolio turnover rate is not annualized and excludes the value of portfolio securities received or delivered as a result of in-kind creations or redemptions of the Fund's capital shares. Portfolio turnover rate does not include effects of turnover of the swap and future contracts portfolio. Short-term securities with maturities less than or equal to 366 days are also excluded from portfolio turnover calculation.

8  Commencement of operations.

9  This ratio includes the voluntary waiver of expenses by the Adviser. Excluding the voluntary waiver, the net expense ratio would have been 0.60%.

10  Between $(0.005) and $0.005.

2.  SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Funds in the preparation of their financial statements. These policies are in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP").

DIREXION SEMI-ANNUAL REPORT
109


a) Investment Valuation – The Net Asset Value ("NAV") per share of each Fund is determined daily, as of the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE") (normally at 4:00 p.m. Eastern time ("Valuation Time")), each day the NYSE is open for business. A security listed or traded on an exchange, domestic or foreign, is valued at its last sales price on the principal exchange on which it is traded prior to the time when assets are valued. If no sale is reported at that time, the mean of the last bid and asked prices is used. Securities primarily traded on the NASDAQ®​ Global Market ("NASDAQ") for which market quotations are readily available are valued using the NASDAQ®​ Official Closing Price ("NOCP") provided by NASDAQ each business day. Over-the-counter ("OTC") securities held by a Fund are valued at the last sales price or, if no sales price is reported, the mean of the last bid and asked price is used. The portfolio securities of a Fund that are listed on national exchanges are valued at the last sales price of such securities or; if no sales price is reported, the mean of the last bid and asked price is used. Swap contracts are valued using the closing price of the underlying reference entity or the closing value of the underlying reference index. The Funds valued their investments in money market funds based on their daily net asset values. Futures contracts are valued at the settlement price established on the exchange on which they are traded, if that settlement price reflects trading prior to the Valuation Time. If the settlement price established by the exchange reflects trading after the Valuation Time, then the last sales price prior to Valuation Time will be used. Securities, swap or futures contracts are fair valued as determined by the Adviser under the supervision of the Board of Trustees (the "Board") in the following scenarios: a) reliable market quotations are not readily available; b) the Fund's pricing service does not provide a valuation for such securities; c) the Fund's pricing service provides a valuation that in the judgment of the Adviser does not represent fair value; or d) the Fund or Adviser believes the market price is stale.

b) Swap Contracts – Each Fund may enter into equity swap contacts. Standard equity swap contracts are between two parties that agree to exchange the returns (or differentials in rates of return) earned or realized on particular predetermined investments or instruments. The gross amount to be exchanged is calculated with respect to a "notional amount" (i.e. the return on or increase in value of a particular dollar amount invested in a "basket" of securities representing a particular index or industry sector). Each Fund enters into master netting agreements with counterparties to mitigate counterparty credit risk in derivative contracts. A Fund does not offset fair value amounts for derivative contracts and related cash collateral on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities arising from derivative contracts executed with the same counterparties under such master netting agreements. Each Fund's obligations are accrued daily and offset by any amounts owed to the Fund.

In a "long" equity swap agreement, the counterparty will generally agree to pay the Fund the amount, if any, by which the notional amount of the swap contract would have increased in value if the Fund had been invested in the particular securities, plus dividends that would have been received on those securities. The Fund will agree to pay the counterparty a floating rate of interest on the notional amount of the swap contract plus the amount, if any, by which the notional amount would have decreased in value had it been invested in such securities plus, in certain instances, commissions or trading spreads on the notional amounts. Thus, the return on the swap contract should be the gain or loss on the notional amount plus dividends on the securities less the interest and commission paid by the Fund on the notional amount. Payments may be made at the conclusion of the contract or periodically during its term. In certain instances, market factors such as the interest rate environment and the demand to borrow the securities underlying the swap agreement can cause a scenario in which the counterparty will pay the Fund interest. These swap contracts do not include the delivery of securities by the Funds to the counterparty. The net amount of the excess, if any, of the Fund's obligations owed over its entitlement with respect to each swap is accrued on a daily basis and an amount of cash or liquid assets having an aggregate net asset value at least equal to such accrued excess is maintained in a segregated account by the Funds' custodian. Until a swap contract is settled in cash, the gain or loss on the notional amount plus dividends on the securities less the interest paid by the Fund on the notional amount are recorded as "unrealized appreciation or depreciation on swaps" and when cash is exchanged, the gain or loss is recorded as "realized gains or losses on swaps".

Each Fund may enter into swap contracts that provide the opposite return of the underlying benchmark or security ("short" the index or security). The operations are similar to that of the swaps disclosed above except that the counterparty pays interest to the Fund on the notional amount outstanding and the dividends on the underlying securities reduce the return of the swap. However, in certain instances, market factors such as the interest rate environment and the demand to borrow the securities underlying the swap agreement can cause a scenario in which the Fund will pay the counterparty interest. These amounts are netted with any unrealized appreciation or depreciation to determine the value of the swap. The Funds will typically enter into equity swap agreements to obtain leverage in order to meet their investment objectives.

Accounting Standards Update No. 2013-01, "Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities" ("ASU 2013-01"), requires entities to disclose (i) gross and net information about both instruments and transactions eligible for offset in the financial statements, and (ii) instruments and transactions subject to an agreement similar to a master netting agreement.

DIREXION SEMI-ANNUAL REPORT
110


ASU 2013-01 is limited in scope to recognized derivative instruments accounted for under ASC 815, "Derivatives and Hedging", to the extent they are offset in the financial statements or subject to an enforceable master netting arrangement of similar agreement.

In order to better define its contractual rights and to secure rights that will help a Fund mitigate its counterparty risk, a Fund may enter into an International Swaps and Derivatives Association, Inc. Master Agreement ("ISDA Master Agreement") or similar agreement with its counterparties. An ISDA Master Agreement is a bilateral agreement between a Fund and a counterparty that governs OTC derivatives, including swap contracts, and typically contains, among other things, collateral posting terms, netting and rights of set-off provisions in the event of a default and/or termination event. Under an ISDA Master Agreement, a Fund may, under certain circumstances, offset with the counterparty certain derivative financial instruments' payables and receivables to create a single net payment. The provisions of the ISDA Master Agreement typically permit a single net payment in the event of a default (close-out netting) or similar event, including the bankruptcy or insolvency of the counterparty.

Collateral requirements generally differ by type of derivative. Collateral terms are contract specific for OTC derivatives (e.g. swaps). Generally, for transactions traded under an ISDA Master Agreement, the collateral requirements are calculated by netting the marked-to-market amount for each transaction under such agreement and comparing that amount to the value of any collateral currently pledged by a Fund and the counterparty. Generally, the amount of collateral due from or to the counterparty must exceed a minimum transfer amount threshold before a transfer is required to be made. To the extent amounts due to a Fund from its derivative counterparties are not fully collateralized, contractually or otherwise, the Fund bears the risk of loss from counterparty non-performance. Interest earned on collateral pledged to a counterparty is presented as part of Interest income on the Statements of Operations. Interest incurred on collateral received from a counterparty is presented as Interest expense on the Statements of Operations.

For financial reporting purposes, the Funds elect to not offset assets and liabilities subject to an ISDA Master Agreement, if any, in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. Therefore, all qualifying transactions are presented on a gross basis in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. As of April 30, 2024, the impact of netting of assets and liabilities and the offsetting of collateral pledged or received based on contractual netting/set-off provisions in the ISDA Master Agreement are detailed in the following tables.

In the event of the counterparty's default, bankruptcy or any other event for which the counterparty cannot meet its obligations, a Fund bears the risk of loss equal to the amount of the daily appreciation owed to the Fund. This obligation represents the daily gain accrued to the Fund from the close of business day prior to this event to the day on which this event occurs and the counterparty can no longer meet its obligations. A Fund will enter into swap agreements only with large, well-capitalized and established financial institutions. The creditworthiness of each of the firms that is a party to a swap agreement is monitored by the Adviser. Shareholders may obtain swap counterparty financial statements at www.sec.gov. Swap contracts are subject to credit risk. Credit risk occurs when the financial condition of an issuer of a security or instrument may cause it to default or become unable to pay interest or principal due on the security. The counterparty to a swap contract might default on its obligations. In addition, the Funds have agreements with certain counterparties with which it trades swap contracts that contain credit risk-related contingent features that could be triggered subject to certain circumstances. Such circumstances include agreed upon net asset value and performance-based thresholds. The maximum exposure to the Funds in regard to potential counterparty default and credit-risk related contingent features at April 30, 2024 is detailed in the following tables. If such credit risk-related contingencies were triggered, the counterparties would have the option to terminate any positions open under the master netting agreement.

c) Futures Contracts – Each Fund may purchase and sell futures contracts. A Fund may use futures contracts to gain exposure to, or hedge against, changes in the values of commodities, equities, interest rates or foreign currencies. Upon entering into a contract, the Fund deposits and maintains as collateral such initial margin as required by the exchange on which the transaction is effected. Pursuant to the contract, the Fund agrees to receive from or pay to the broker an amount of cash equal to the daily fluctuation in value of the contract. Such receipts or payments are known as "variation margin" and are recorded by the Fund as unrealized gains and losses. When the contract is closed, the Fund records a realized gain or loss equal to the difference between the value of the contract at the time it was opened and the value at the time it was closed. As collateral for futures contracts, the Fund is required under the 1940 Act to maintain assets consisting of cash, cash equivalents or liquid securities. This collateral is required to be adjusted daily to reflect the market value of the purchase obligation for long futures contracts or the market value of the instrument underlying the contract, but not less than the market price at which the futures contract was established, for short futures contracts.

DIREXION SEMI-ANNUAL REPORT
121


d) Risks of Futures Contracts, Options on Futures Contracts and Short Positions – The risks inherent in the use of options, futures contracts, options on futures contracts and short positions include 1) adverse changes in the fair value of such instruments; 2) imperfect correlation between the price of options and futures contracts and options thereon and movements in the price of the underlying securities, index or futures contracts; 3) the possible absence of a liquid secondary market for any particular instrument at any time; 4) the possible need to defer closing out certain positions to avoid adverse tax consequences; and 5) the possible non-performance by the counterparty under the terms of the contract. The Funds designate cash, cash equivalents and liquid securities as collateral for written options, futures contracts, options on futures contracts and short positions. The Funds were not invested in any type of futures or options contracts during the period ended April 30, 2024.

e) Risks of Investing in Foreign Securities – Investments in foreign securities involve greater risks than investing in domestic securities. As a result, the Funds' returns and net asset values may be affected to a large degree by fluctuations in currency exchange rates, political, diplomatic or economic conditions and regulatory requirements in other countries. The laws, accounting and financial reporting standards in foreign countries may require less disclosure than required in the U.S., and therefore there may be less public information available about foreign companies. Investments in foreign emerging markets present a greater risk than investing in foreign issuers in general. The risk of political or social upheaval is greater in emerging markets. In addition, there may be risks of an economy's dependence on revenues from particular commodities, currency transfer restrictions, a limited number of potential buyers for such securities and delays and disruption in securities settlement procedures.

f) Security Transactions – Investment transactions are recorded on the trade date. The Funds determine the gain or loss realized from investment transactions by comparing the identified cost, which is the same basis used for U.S. Federal income tax purposes, with the net sales proceeds.

g) Securities Lending – Each Fund may lend up to 331/3% of the value of the securities in their portfolios to approved brokers, dealers and other financial institutions. The borrower pledges and maintains with the Fund collateral consisting of cash, cash equivalents, or securities issued or guaranteed by the U.S. government. The collateral received by each Fund is required to have a value of at least 102% of the current value of the loaned securities. During the term of the loan, each Fund is entitled to all distributions made on or in respect of the loaned securities but does not receive interest income on securities received as collateral. Each Fund receives compensation for lending its securities from interest or dividends earned on the cash, cash equivalents or U.S. Government securities held as collateral, net of fee rebates paid to borrower and net of fees paid to the lending agent. The amount of fees depends on a number of factors including the security type and the length of the loan. In addition, a Fund will receive a fee from the borrower for non-cash collateral equal to a percentage of the market value of the loaned securities. Loans of securities are terminable at any time and the borrower, after notice, is required to return borrowed securities within the standard time period for settlement of securities transactions. No more than 99% of the value of any security may be on loan at any time.

As of April 30, 2024, all securities on loan were collateralized by cash and/or U.S. government obligations. The cash received as collateral for securities on loan was invested in money market funds, whose maturities are overnight and continuous, and is disclosed in the Schedules of Investments. The securities on loan in each Fund are also disclosed in the Schedule of Investments. The total value of securities loaned and the value of the invested cash collateral are disclosed in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. Non-cash collateral consists of U.S. Treasury securities and is not disclosed on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities as its held by the lending agent on behalf of the Funds, and the Funds do not have the ability to sell, reinvest or pledge those securities. Income earned by the Funds from securities lending is disclosed in the Statements of Operations.

The risks of securities lending include the risk that the borrower may not provide additional collateral when required or may not return the securities when due. To mitigate these risks, the Funds are contractually indemnified with the securities lending agent. Furthermore, the Funds require the value of the securities loaned to be computed daily at the close of the market and additional collateral be furnished, if required.

h) Federal Income Taxes – Each Fund intends to make the requisite distributions of income and capital gains to comply with the requirements of Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, necessary to qualify as a regulated investment company. Therefore, no provision for U.S. Federal income tax has been made by the Funds.

The Funds may be subject to a nondeductible 4% U.S. excise tax calculated as a percentage of certain undistributed amounts of net investment income and net capital gains. Certain Funds paid this excise tax during the period ended April 30, 2024, which is disclosed on the Statements of Operations.

i) Income and Expenses – Interest income, including amortization of premiums and discounts, is recognized on an accrual basis. Distributions are recorded on the ex-dividend date.

The Funds are charged for those expenses that are directly attributable to each series, such as advisory fees and registration costs. Expenses that are not directly attributable to a series are generally allocated among the Trust's series in proportion to their respective average daily net assets.

j) Distributions to Shareholders – Each Fund pays dividends from net investment income and distributes net realized capital gains, if any, at least annually. Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with U.S. Federal income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. Certain Funds also utilize earnings and profits distributed to shareholders on redemptions of shares as part of the dividends paid deduction. Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date.

k) Guarantees and Indemnifications – In the ordinary course of business, the Funds enter into contracts that contain a variety of indemnification provisions pursuant to which the Funds agree to indemnify third parties upon the occurrence of specified events. The Funds' maximum exposure relating to these indemnification agreements is unknown. However, the Funds have not had prior claims or losses in connection with these provisions and believe the risk of loss is remote.

l) Use of Estimates – The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

The Funds follow authoritative financial reporting rules regarding recognition and measurement of tax positions taken or expected to be taken on a tax return. Management has reviewed all open tax years and concluded that there is no effect to the Funds' financial positions or results of operations and no tax liability was required to be recorded resulting from unrecognized tax benefits relating to uncertain income tax position taken or expected to be taken on a tax return. The Funds recognize interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense in the Statements of Operations. During this period, the Funds did not incur any interest or penalties. Open tax years are those years that are open for examination by the relevant income taxing authority. As of April 30, 2024, open U.S. Federal and state income tax years include the tax years ended October 31, 2021 through October 31, 2023. The Funds have no examinations in progress. The Funds are also not aware of any tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax expense will significantly change in the next twelve months.

Creation Units of the Bull Funds are issued and redeemed in cash and/or in-kind for securities included in the relevant underlying index. Creation Units of the Bear Funds are issued and redeemed for cash. Investors such as market makers, large investors and institutions who wish to deal in creation units directly with a Fund must have entered into an authorized participant agreement with the principal underwriter and the transfer agent, or purchase through a dealer that has entered into such an agreement. Transactions in shares for each Fund include both cash and in-kind transactions and are disclosed in detail in the Statements of Changes in Net Assets.

Transaction fees payable to the Trust are imposed to compensate the Trust for the transfer and other transaction costs of a Fund associated with the issuance and redemption of creation units. There is a fixed and a variable component to the total transaction fee. A fixed transaction fee is applicable to each creation or redemption transaction, regardless of the number of creation units purchased or redeemed. In addition, a variable transaction fee equal to a percentage of the value of each creation unit purchased or redeemed is applicable to each creation or redemption transaction. Not all Funds will have a transaction fee associated with capital share activity for the year. Transaction fees received by each Fund are presented in the Capital Share Transaction section of the Statements of Changes in Net Assets.

The Board has adopted a Distribution and Service Plan (the "Plan") pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the Investment Company Act of 1940. In accordance with the Plan, each Fund is authorized to charge an amount up to 0.25% of its average daily net assets each year for certain distribution-related activities and shareholder services. No 12b-1 fees were charged by any Fund.

7.  FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

The Funds follow authoritative fair valuation accounting standards, which establish an authoritative definition of fair value and set out a hierarchy for measuring fair value. These standards require additional disclosures about the various inputs and valuation techniques used to develop the measurements of fair value and a discussion of changes in valuation techniques and related inputs during the period. These inputs are summarized in the three broad levels below:

Level 1 – Quoted prices in active markets for identical securities

Level 2 – Evaluated price based on other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar securities in inactive markets, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.)

Level 3 – Significant unobservable inputs (including the Fund's own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments)

The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.

The following is a summary of the inputs used to value the Funds' investments at April 30, 2024:

For further detail on each asset class, see each Fund's Schedule of Investments.

*  Total return swap contracts are valued at the unrealized appreciation/(depreciation).

The Funds also follow authoritative accounting standards, which require additional disclosure regarding fair value measurements. Specifically, these standards require reporting entities to disclose a) the input and valuation techniques used to measure fair value for both recurring and nonrecurring fair value measurements, for Level 2 or Level 3 positions, and

DIREXION SEMI-ANNUAL REPORT
134


b) purchases and sales on a gross basis in the Level 3 rollforward rather than as one net number. Additionally, reporting entities are required to disclose quantitative information about unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurements categorized within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.

There were no Level 3 securities held by the Funds or any transfers between levels during the period ended April 30, 2024.

8.  VALUATION OF DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS

The Funds follow authoritative standards of accounting for derivative instruments, which establish disclosure requirements for derivative instruments. These standards improve financial reporting for derivative instruments by requiring enhanced disclosures that enable investors to understand how and why a fund uses derivative instruments, how derivative instruments are accounted for and how derivative instruments affect a fund's financial position and results of operations.

Certain Funds use derivative instruments as part of their principal investment strategy to achieve their investment objective. For additional discussion on the risks associated with derivative instruments refer to Note 2. As of April 30, 2024, the Funds were invested in swap contracts. At April 30, 2024, the fair values of derivative instruments, by primary risk, were as follows:

9.  PRINCIPAL RISKS

Below are some of the principal risks of investing in the Funds. Please refer to the Funds' prospectus for a full discussion.

Counterparty Risk – A Fund will be subject to credit risk with respect to the amount it expects to receive from counterparties to financial instruments entered into by the Fund. The Funds' counterparties are generally required to post collateral to the Funds to the extent of the Funds' daily exposure to such counterparties. However, to the extent any such collateral is insufficient, the Funds will be exposed to counterparty risk as described in this paragraph. In addition, there may be a delay associated with realization by the Funds of the collateral posted by such counterparties in the event of counterparty default or bankruptcy. A Fund may be negatively impacted if a counterparty becomes bankrupt or otherwise fails to perform its obligations due to financial difficulties. A Fund may experience significant delays in obtaining any recovery in a bankruptcy or other reorganization proceeding, and a Fund may obtain only limited recovery or may obtain no recovery in such circumstances.

Daily Index Correlation/Tracking Risk – A number of factors may affect a Fund's ability to achieve a high degree of correlation with its benchmark, and there can be no guarantee that a Fund will achieve a high degree of correlation. A failure to achieve a high degree of correlation may prevent a Fund from achieving its investment objective. A number of factors may adversely affect a Fund's correlation with its benchmark, including fees, expenses, transaction costs, costs associated with the use of leveraged investment techniques, income items, accounting standards, and disruptions or illiquidity in the markets for the securities or financial instruments in which the Fund invests. A Fund may not have investment exposure to all securities in its underlying benchmark index, or its weighting of investment exposure to such stocks or industries may be different from that of the index. In addition, a Fund may invest in securities or financial instruments not included in the index underlying its benchmark. A Fund may be subject to large movements of assets into and out of the Fund, potentially resulting in the Fund being over- or under-exposed to its benchmark. Activities surrounding annual index reconstitutions and other index rebalancing or reconstitution events may hinder the Funds' ability to meet their daily investment objective on that day. Each Fund seeks to rebalance its portfolio daily to keep leverage consistent with its daily investment objective.

Certain Funds are "leveraged" funds in the sense that they have investment objectives to match a multiple of the performance of an index on a given day. These Funds are subject to all of the correlation risks described above. In addition, there is a special form of correlation risk that derives from these Funds' use of leverage, which is that for periods greater than one day, the use of leverage tends to cause the performance of a Fund to be either greater than or less than the index performance times the stated multiple in the fund objective, before accounting for fees and fund expenses. In general, given a particular index return, increased volatility of the index will cause a decrease in the performance relative to the index performance times the stated fund multiple.

Derivatives Risk – The Fund's investments in derivatives may pose risks in addition to, and greater than, those associated with directly investing in securities or other investments, including risk related to the market, leverage, imperfect daily correlations with underlying investments or the Fund's other portfolio holdings, higher price volatility, lack of availability, counterparty risk, liquidity, valuation and legal restrictions.

In addition, the Fund's investments in derivatives are subject to the following risks:

•  Swap Agreements. Swap agreements are entered into primarily with major global financial institutions for a specified period which may range from one day to more than one year. In a standard swap transaction, two parties agree to exchange the return (or differentials in rates of return) earned or realized on particular predetermined reference assets or underlying securities or instruments. The gross return to be exchanged or swapped between the parties is calculated based on a notional amount or the return on or change in value of a particular dollar amount invested in a basket of securities representing a particular index or an ETF that seeks to track an index. Swaps are subject to counterparty, valuation and leveraging risks.

•  Futures Contracts. Futures contracts are typically exchange-traded contracts that call for the future delivery of an asset at a certain price and date, or cash settlement of the terms of the contract. There may be an imperfect correlation between the changes in market value of the securities held by the Fund and the prices of futures contracts. Futures contracts are subject to liquidity risks; there may not be a liquid secondary market for the futures contracts and the Fund may not be able to enter into a closing transaction. Exchanges may also limit the number of positions that can be held or controlled by the Fund or the Adviser, thus limiting the ability of the Fund to implement its leveraged investment strategy. Futures markets are highly volatile and the use of futures may increase the Fund's volatility. Futures contracts are also subject to leverage risk.

Foreign Securities Risk – Investments in foreign securities directly or indirectly through investments in exchange traded funds which track foreign securities involve greater risks than investing in domestic securities. As a result, the Funds' returns and net asset values may be affected to a large degree by fluctuations in currency exchange rates, political, diplomatic or economic conditions and regulatory requirements in other countries. The laws, accounting and financial reporting standards in foreign countries may require less disclosure than required in the U.S., and therefore there may be less public information available about foreign companies. Investments in foreign emerging markets present a greater risk than investing in foreign issuers in general. The risk of political or social upheaval is greater in emerging markets. In addition, there may be risks of an economy's dependence on revenues from particular commodities, currency transfer restrictions, a limited number of potential buyers for such securities and delays and disruption in securities settlement procedures.

Leverage Risk – Leverage offers a means of magnifying market movements into larger changes in an investment's value and provides greater investment exposure than an unleveraged investment. Swap and futures contracts may be used to create leverage. Certain Funds employ leveraged investment techniques to achieve its investment objective.

Liquidity Risk – In certain circumstances, such as the disruption of the orderly markets for the securities or financial instruments in which a Fund invests, a Fund might not be able to dispose of certain holdings quickly or at prices that represent fair market value in the judgment of the Adviser. Additionally, certain counterparties may have the ability to demand repayment at any time, thereby exposing the Fund to the risk that it may be required to liquidate investments at an inopportune time. This may prevent a Fund from limiting losses, realizing gains or from achieving a high correlation or inverse correlation with its underlying index.

Sector Concentration Risk – The risk of concentrating investments in a limited number of issuers in a particular industry is that a Fund will be more susceptible to the risks associated with that industry than a Fund that does not concentrate its investments.

The Board of Trustees of the Trust has determined, upon the recommendation of the Adviser, that it is in the best interests of the Fund and its shareholders to liquidate and terminate the Direxion Daily Global Clean Energy Bull 2X Shares. The Fund will be closed to purchases by investors as of the close of regular trading on the NYSE on July 19, 2024. In order to pursue an orderly liquidation, the Fund's assets will be converted to cash or cash equivalents and, as a result, the Fund will no longer pursue its stated investment objectives after the close of trading on June 21, 2024. The Fund will be liquidated on July 30, 2024 (the "Liquidation Date"). After the Liquidation Date, any shareholder who has not redeemed shares of the Fund prior to the Liquidation Date will receive a payment representing the shareholder's proportionate interest in the net assets of the Fund as of the Liquidation Date.

Direxion Shares ETF Trust

Board Review of Investment Advisory Agreement

At meetings held on November 17, 2023 and February 7, 2024, the Board of Trustees (the "Board") of the Direxion Shares ETF Trust (the "ETF Trust") considered the approval of the Investment Advisory Agreement (the "Agreement") between Rafferty Asset Management, LLC (the "Adviser") and the ETF Trust, on behalf of the Direxion Daily MSCI Emerging Markets ex China Bull 2X Shares, Direxion Daily Concentrated Qs Bull 2X Shares and Direxion Daily Concentrated Qs Bear 1X Shares, each a series of the ETF Trust. Each such series is referred to herein as a "Fund" and collectively as the "Funds."

Following such consideration, the Board, including the trustees who are not "interested persons" of the Trust as defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940 Act, as amended (the "Independent Trustees"), unanimously approved the Agreement on behalf of the relevant Funds. The Board, including the Independent Trustees, determined that the terms of the Agreement for the Funds were fair and reasonable and in the best interests of shareholders.

The Board did not identify any particular information that was most relevant to its consideration to approve the Agreement and each Trustee may have afforded different weight or importance to different factors. For each Fund, the Board considered, among others, the following factors to the extent applicable: (1) the nature, extent, and quality of the services provided; (2) the projected profitability to the Adviser based upon its services to be provided to the Fund; (3) the extent to which economies of scale might be realized as the Fund grows; (4) whether fee levels reflect these economies of scale, if any, for the benefit of the Fund's shareholders; (5) comparisons of services and fees with contracts entered into by the Adviser with other clients (such as institutional investors), if any; and (6) other benefits anticipated to be derived and identified by the Adviser from its relationship with the Fund.

Nature, Extent and Quality of Services Provided. The Board considered the nature, extent and quality of the services to be provided under the Agreement by the Adviser. Based on written materials received, a presentation from senior representatives of the Adviser and a discussion with the Adviser about its personnel, operations and financial condition, the Board considered the quality of the services provided by the Adviser under the Agreement. In this regard, the Board considered information regarding the experience, qualifications and professional background of the portfolio managers and other personnel at the Adviser with principal responsibility for the Funds, as well as the capacity and integrity of the Adviser's senior management and staff. The Board noted that the Adviser has provided services to the ETF Trust since its inception date and has developed an expertise in managing funds with investment strategies similar to the Funds. The Board considered the Adviser's representation that it has the financial resources and appropriate staffing to manage the relevant Funds and to meet its fee waiver and expense obligations thereto. The Board considered that the Adviser will oversee all aspects of the operation of the Funds, including oversight of the Funds' service providers, and provide compliance services to the Funds. The Board observed that because the Funds had not commenced operations, they did not have any prior performance history. Under the totality of the circumstances, the Board determined that, in the exercise of its business judgment, the nature, extent and quality of the services to be provided by the Adviser to the Funds under the Agreement were fair and reasonable.

Costs of Services Provided to the Funds and Profits Realized. The Board considered the fairness and reasonableness of the investment advisory fee rates to be paid to the Adviser by the Funds in light of the investment advisory services to be provided by the Adviser. The Board considered the fees to be paid to the Adviser on an annual basis, including pursuant to contractual fee waivers and expense reimbursement arrangements. The Board considered that the proposed advisory fee rate and net expense ratio for each Fund were similar to those of comparable exchange-traded funds and to those of similar series of the Trust. The Board also considered that for many of the Funds RAM manages more than the Fund's net assets due to the leveraged exposure of such Funds.

The Board considered the overall profitability of the Adviser's investment business and, because the Funds had not yet commenced operations and the Adviser had no profit data related to the Funds, the Board considered the break-even analysis provided by the Adviser with respect to its services to be rendered to the Funds. The Board considered the significant drivers of cost for the Adviser including, but not limited to, intellectual capital, portfolio rebalancing, regulatory compliance, and entrepreneurial risk. Based on these considerations, the Board determined that, in the exercise of its reasonable business judgment, the costs of the services to be provided and any profits that may be realized under the Agreement was not excessive.

Board Review of Investment Advisory Agreement

Economies of Scale. The Board considered whether economies of scale may be realized by each Fund as it grows larger and the extent to which any such economies are reflected in contractual fee rates. Noting that the Funds had not yet commenced operations and did not yet have any assets, the Board concluded that economies of scale were not a material factor for the Board to consider in approving the agreement.

Other Benefits. The Board considered the Adviser's representations that its relationship with the Funds may enable it to attract assets to other funds. The Board also considered that the Adviser's overall business with brokerage firms may allow it to negotiate lower commission rates and get better execution for all of its portfolio trades. Based on these and other considerations, the Board determined that such benefits to the Adviser would likely not be material and, overall, would be reasonable.

Conclusion. The Board did not identify any single factor as being of paramount importance, and different Trustees may have given different weight to different factors. The Board reviewed a memorandum from counsel discussing the legal standards applicable to its consideration of the Agreement. Based on its review, including consideration of each of the factors referenced above, and its consideration of information received throughout the year from the Adviser, the Board determined, in the exercise of its business judgment, that the advisory arrangements, as outlined in the Agreement, were fair and reasonable in light of the services performed, or to be performed, expenses incurred, or to be incurred and such other matters as the Board considered relevant.

Letter to Shareholders

Dear Shareholders,

This Semi-Annual Report for the Direxion Shares ETF Trust exchange-traded funds (the "ETFs") covers the period from November 1, 2023 to April, 30 2024 (the "Semi-Annual Period").

Market Review:

The Semi-Annual Period began with pressure on equities as bond yields grew and inflation was top of mind for investors. Geopolitical tension also contributed to uncertainty in the markets; the Chinese economy's recovery lagged, the war in Ukraine continued, and the Israeli-Palestinian war began. Despite these headwinds, November 2023 experienced positive returns with the S&P 500 up 8.0%. In particular, rate-sensitive areas like real estate and tech had strong performance, while energy underperformed. The "Magnificent Seven" (Apple Inc., Alphabet Inc., Amazon.com, Inc., Meta Platforms, Inc., Microsoft Corporation, NVIDIA Corporation and Tesla, Inc.) rose to prominence during the Semi-Annual Period as tech rallied. 2023 ended on a bullish note, with all eleven sectors posting positive returns in December. Additionally, small caps had a standout month, with the Russell 2000 up 12.2% in December 2023. 2024 started on a mostly optimistic note for equity markets, although the momentum for small caps did not last. The February core consumer price index reading showed prices up 0.4% month-over-month but was still trending downward and far below its peak. Despite this higher-than-expected inflation, the U.S. economy remained resilient. Contrary to the beginning of the Semi-Annual Period, in March 2024, the energy sector outperformed, while tech underperformed and in April 2024, small caps ended the month in the red. At the end of the Semi-Annual Period, the geopolitical landscape remained rocky and persistent inflation remained a key issue.

After government bonds reached record highs, in November, yields began to decline, which continued through the end of the year, prompting a rally for the bond markets. All eyes were on the Federal Reserve during the Semi-Annual Period as they began to discuss the possibility of rate cuts in light of lower treasury yields, indicating a dovish pivot. Inflation began to ease, but remained at elevated levels that did not reach the Fed's 2% target. At the beginning of 2024, longer term treasury curves increased slightly. The Federal Reserve made no rate cuts by the end of the Semi-Annual Period, indicating the previously anticipated monetary easing would not happen as soon as expected, if at all. As a result of shifting expectations, 2-year and 10-year treasury yields rose in April.

Direxion Shares Operational Review:

The discussion below relates to the performance of the ETFs for the Semi-Annual Period. The ETFs are leveraged and seek daily investment results, before fees and expenses, of 300% or -300% of the performance of a particular benchmark. All ETF returns are NAV (net asset value) returns.

The ETFs, as stated above, seek daily investment results. They do not seek to track a multiple of their respective benchmarks for periods longer than one day and the performance of the ETFs over longer periods may not correlate to their benchmarks' performance. The ETFs should not be held by investors for long periods and should be used as short-term trading vehicles. These products are not suitable for all investors and should be utilized only by sophisticated investors who understand the risks associated with shorting and/or the use of leverage, the consequences of seeking daily leveraged investment results and intend to actively monitor and manage their investments.

The ETFs with the word "Bull" in their name (the "Bull ETFs"), attempt to provide investment results that correlate to 300%, before fees and expenses, of the daily performance of a benchmark index, meaning the Bull Funds attempt to move in the same direction as their respective target benchmark index.

The Funds with the word "Bear" in their name (the "Bear ETFs"), attempt to provide investment results that correlate to -300%, before fees and expenses, of the daily performance of a benchmark index, meaning that the Bear Funds attempt to move in the opposite, or inverse, direction of their respective target benchmark index.

In seeking to achieve each ETF's daily investment results, Rafferty Asset Management, LLC ("Rafferty" or the "Adviser"), relies upon a pre-determined investment model to generate orders resulting in repositioning each ETF's investments in accordance with its daily investment objective. Using this approach, Rafferty determines the type, quantity and mix of investment positions that it believes in combination should produce daily returns consistent with an ETF's objective. As a consequence, if an ETF is performing as designed, the return of the benchmark index will dictate the return for that ETF. Each ETF pursues its investment objective regardless of market conditions and does not take defensive positions.

Each ETF has a clearly articulated goal which requires the ETF to seek economic exposure significantly in excess of its net assets. To meet its objectives, each ETF invests in some combination of financial instruments, including derivatives. Each ETF invests significantly in derivatives, including swap agreements. Rafferty uses these types of investments to produce economically "leveraged" investment results. Leveraging allows Rafferty to generate a greater positive or negative return than what would be generated on the invested capital without leverage, thus changing small market movements into larger changes in the value of the investments of an ETF.

The ETFs may use certain investment techniques, including investments in derivatives, which may be considered aggressive. Investments in derivatives in general are subject to market risks that may cause their prices to fluctuate dramatically over time. Additionally, use of such instruments may increase the volatility of the ETFs. The use of derivatives may expose the ETFs to additional risks that they would not be subject to if they invested directly in the securities underlying those derivatives, such as counterparty risk. The use of derivatives may result in larger losses or smaller gains than otherwise would be the case.

Because each ETF seeks daily investment results of its relevant benchmark, a comparison of the return of the ETF to the relevant benchmark tells you little about whether an ETF has met its investment objective. To determine if an ETF has met its daily investment goals, Rafferty maintains models which indicate the expected performance of each ETF as compared to the underlying relevant index. The models do not take into account the ETF's expense ratio or any transaction or trading fees associated with creating or maintaining an ETF's portfolio. Deviation from the model may be due to a combination of asset fluctuation, expenses, transaction costs, including swap contract related costs and underlying index volatility.

Factors Affecting Direxion Shares Performance:

Benchmark Performance – The daily performance of each ETF's benchmark index, and the factors and market conditions implicitly affecting that index, are the primary factors driving ETF performance. Given the daily goals, the series of daily index returns are most important. The market conditions that affected the benchmark indexes during the past year are described below.

Leverage – Each ETF seeks daily investment results (before fees and expenses) of either 300% (for the Bull ETFs) or -300% (for the Bear ETFs) of the daily performance of its respective underlying index. The use of leverage magnifies an ETF's gains or losses and increases the investment's risk and volatility. The Bear ETFs seek to achieve inverse magnified correlation to their respective underlying indexes.

Volatility and Compounding – The goal of leveraged ETFs is to provide a multiple of the daily return of an underlying index. Over periods longer than a single day, an ETF should not be expected to provide its respective multiple of the return of the underlying index. Due to the effects of compounding, a universal mathematical concept that applies to all investments, returns of the ETFs over longer periods are greater or less than the ETF's daily stated goal. Periods of high volatility that lack a clear trend hurt an ETF's performance while trending, low volatility markets enhance an ETF's performance.

Cost of Financing – In order to attain leveraged exposure, a Bull ETF incurs a cost of SOFR plus or minus a spread and a Bear ETF receives SOFR plus or minus a spread as applied to the borrowed portion of the ETF's exposure. The spread varies by both Fund and counterparty and is a function of market demand, hedging costs, access to balance sheet, borrow volatility, current counterparty exposure and administrative costs associated with the swap counterparty. Generally for most of the Bull ETFs, the financing costs will have a negative effect on tracking, but for Bear ETFs, the financing cost will have a positive

effect on tracking. An increase in interest rates which effects the cost of financing will further impact an ETF's performance and ability to track its index.

Optimized Baskets – Each Bull ETF holds a basket of equities designed to provide returns that track its underlying index. In order to decrease transaction costs, certain Bull ETFs hold only a representative sample, or optimized basket, that tracks closely over time, but deviates from its underlying index in the short-term.

Equity Dividends and Bond Interest – Equity Bull ETFs are positively impacted by equity and index dividends as the ETFs receive those payments. Equity Bear ETFs are negatively impacted as they are obligated to pay the dividends. Treasury Bull ETFs receive interest, accrued on a daily basis, to account for the Treasury's semi-annual coupon payments while the Treasury Bear ETFs pay interest, accrued on a daily basis.

Fees, Expenses, and Transaction Costs – Fees and expenses are listed in each ETF's prospectus and may be higher than many traditional index ETFs' fees, which cause a greater negative impact on ETF performance. Transactions costs are not included in the expense ratio of the ETFs. Transaction costs can be higher due to the ETF's use of leverage, frequent creation and redemption activity, or trading securities that are comparatively less liquid.

Given the daily investment objectives of the ETF and the path dependency of returns for longer periods, the annual return of the index alone should not generate expectations of annual performance of the ETF. The Direxion Daily Transportation Bull 3X Shares returned 50.75%, while the model indicated an expected return of 17.86%.

The Direxion Daily Utilities Bull 3X Shares seeks to provide 300% of the daily return of the Utilities Select Sector Index. The Utilities Select Sector Index is provided by S&P Dow Jones Indices and includes domestic companies from the utilities sector which includes the following industries: electric utilities; multi-utilities; water utilities; independent power producers and energy trades; and gas utilities. For the Semi-Annual Period, the Utilities Select Sector Index returned -12.69%. Given the daily investment objectives of the ETF and the path dependency of returns for longer periods, the annual return of the index alone should not generate expectations of annual performance of the ETF. The Direxion Daily Utilities Bull 3X Shares returned 32.83%, while the model indicated an expected return of 37.25%.

Leveraged and Inverse ETFs pursue daily leveraged investment objectives which means they are riskier than alternatives which do not use leverage. They seek daily goals and should not be expected to track the underlying index over periods longer than one day. They are not suitable for all investors and should be utilized only by sophisticated investors who understand leverage risk and who actively manage their investments. The performance data quoted represents past performance. Past performance does not guarantee future results. The investment return and principal value of an investment will fluctuate. An investor's shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance quoted. Returns for performance under one year are cumulative, not annualized. For the most recent month-end performance please visit the Funds website at direxion.com.

Short-term performance, in particular, is not a good indication of the Fund's future performance, and an investment should not be made based solely on returns. Because of ongoing market volatility, fund performance may be subject to substantial short-term changes. For additional information, see the Fund's prospectus.

Shares of the Direxion Shares are bought and sold at market price (not NAV) and are not individually redeemed from a Fund. Market Price returns are based upon the midpoint of the bid/ask spread at 4:00 pm EST (when NAV is normally calculated) and do not represent the returns you would receive if you traded shares at other times. Brokerage commissions will reduce returns. Fund returns assume that dividends and capital gains distributions have been reinvested in the Fund at NAV. Some performance results reflect expense reimbursements or recoupments and fee waivers in effect during certain periods shown. Absent these reimbursements or recoupments and fee waivers, results would have been less favorable.

SOFR (Secured Overnight Financing Rate) is a broad measure of the cost of borrowing cash overnight collateralized by Treasury securities.

Direxion Shares Risks – An investment in the ETFs involves risk, including the possible loss of principal. The ETFs are non-diversified and include risks associated with concentration risk that results from the ETFs' investments in a particular industry or sector which can increase volatility. The use of derivatives such as futures contracts, forward contracts, options and swaps are subject to market risks that may cause their price to fluctuate over time. The ETFs do not attempt to, and should not be expected to; provide returns which are a multiple of the return of their respective underlying index for periods other than a single day. For other risks including correlation, leverage, compounding, market volatility and specific risks regarding each sector, please read each ETF's prospectus.

The views of this letter were those of the Adviser as of April 30, 2024, and may not necessarily reflect its views on the date this letter is first published or anytime thereafter. These views are intended to help shareholders in understanding the ETFs' present investment methodology and do not constitute investment advice.

Expense Example (Unaudited)

April 30, 2024

As a shareholder of the Direxion Shares ETF Trust, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, for purchasing and selling shares and exchange fees; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees; and other Fund expenses. This example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in a fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.

The example is based on initial investments of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held the entire period (November 1, 2023 to April 30, 2024).

Actual Expenses

The first line under each Fund in the following table provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first line for your Fund under the heading entitled "Expenses Paid During Period November 1, 2023 to April 30, 2024" to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.

Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes

The second line of the following table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on each Fund's actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Fund's actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in your Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.

Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as brokerage commissions paid on purchases and sales of Fund shares. Therefore, the second line under each Fund in the table is useful in comparing ongoing Fund costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

5  Total return is calculated assuming an initial investment made at the net asset value at the beginning of the year/period, reinvestment of all dividends and distributions at net asset value during the year/period and redemption on the last day of the period. Total return calculated for a period of less than one year is not annualized. The total return would have been lower if certain expenses had not been reimbursed/waived or recouped by the Adviser.

6  Net expenses include effects of any reimbursement/waiver or recoupment.

7  For periods less than a year, these ratios are annualized.

8  Portfolio turnover rate is not annualized and excludes the value of portfolio securities received or delivered as a result of in-kind creations or redemptions of the Fund's capital shares. Portfolio turnover rate does not include effects of turnover of the swap and future contracts portfolio. Short-term securities with maturities less than or equal to 366 days are also excluded from portfolio turnover calculation.

9  Commencement of operations.

2.  SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Funds in the preparation of their financial statements. These policies are in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP").

a) Investment Valuation – The Net Asset Value ("NAV") per share of each Fund is determined daily, as of the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE") (normally at 4:00 p.m. Eastern time), each day the NYSE is open for business. On days that the Securities Industry and Financial Markets Association ("SIFMA") recommends that the bond markets close all day, Direxion Daily 7-10 Year Treasury Bull 3X Shares, Direxion Daily 7-10 Year Treasury Bear 3X Shares, Direxion Daily 20+ Year Treasury Bull 3X Shares and Direxion Daily 20+ Year Treasury Bear 3X Shares (the "Fixed Income Funds") do not calculate their NAVs, even if the NYSE is open for business. Similarly, on days that SIFMA recommends that the bond markets close early, each of the Fixed Income Funds calculate its NAV as of the time of the recommended close, usually 2:00 p.m. Eastern time, rather than the close of regular trading on the NYSE. A security listed or traded on an exchange, domestic or foreign, is valued at its last sales price on the principal exchange on which it is traded prior to the time when assets are valued. If no sale is reported at that time, the mean of the last bid and asked prices is used. Securities primarily traded on the NASDAQ®​ Global Market ("NASDAQ") for which market quotations are readily available are valued using the NASDAQ®​ Official Closing Price ("NOCP") provided by NASDAQ each business day. Over the Counter ("OTC") securities held by a Fund will be valued at the last sales price or, if no sales price is reported, the mean of the last bid and asked price is used. The portfolio securities of a Fund that are listed on national exchanges are valued at the last sales price of such securities; if no sales price is reported, the mean of the last bid and asked price is used. Swap contracts are valued using the closing price of the underlying reference entity or the closing value of the underlying reference index. The Funds valued their investments in money market funds based on their daily net asset values. Futures contracts are valued at settlement price established on the exchange on which they are traded, if that settlement price reflects trading prior to the Valuation Time. If the settlement price established by the exchange reflects trading after the Valuation Time, then the last sales price prior to Valuation time will be used. Securities, swap or future contracts are fair valued as determined by the Adviser under the supervision of the Board of Trustees (the "Board") in the following scenarios: a) reliable market quotations are not readily available; b) the Funds' pricing service does not provide a valuation for such securities; c) the Funds' pricing service provides valuation that in the judgment of the Adviser does not represent fair value; or d) the Fund or Adviser believes the market price is stale.

b) Swap Contracts – Each Fund may enter into equity swap contacts. Standard equity swap contracts are between two parties that agree to exchange the returns (or differentials in rates of return) earned or realized on particular predetermined investments or instruments. The gross amount to be exchanged is calculated with respect to a "notional amount" (i.e. the return on or increase in value of a particular dollar amount invested in a "basket" of securities representing a particular index or industry sector). Each Fund enters into master netting agreements with counterparties to mitigate counterparty credit risk in derivative contracts. A Fund does not offset fair value amounts for derivatives contracts and related cash collateral on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities arising from derivative contracts executed with the same counterparties under such master netting agreements. The Fund's obligations are accrued daily and offset by any amounts owed to the Fund.

In a "long" equity swap agreement, the counterparty will generally agree to pay the Fund the amount, if any, by which the notional amount of the swap contract would have increased in value if the Fund had been invested in the particular securities, plus dividends that would have been received on those securities. The Fund will agree to pay the counterparty a floating rate of interest (e.g., a LIBOR based rate) on the notional amount of the swap contract plus the amount, if any, by which the notional amount would have decreased in value had it been invested in such securities plus, in certain instances, commissions or trading spreads on the notional amounts. Thus, the return on the swap contract should be the gain or loss on the notional amount plus dividends on the securities less the interest and commission paid by the Fund on the notional amount. Payments may be made at the conclusion of the contract or periodically during its term. In certain instances, market factors such as the interest rate environment and the demand to borrow the securities underlying the swap agreement can cause a scenario in which the counterparty will pay the Fund interest. These swap contracts do not include the delivery of securities by the Funds to the counterparty. The net amount of the excess, if any, of the Fund's obligations owed over its entitlement with respect to each swap is accrued on a daily basis and an amount of cash or liquid assets having an aggregate net asset value at least equal to such accrued excess is maintained in a segregated account by the Fund's custodian. Until a swap contract is settled in cash, the gain or loss on the notional amount plus dividends on the securities less the interest paid by the Fund on the notional amount are recorded as "unrealized gains or losses on swaps" and when cash is exchanged, the gain or loss is recorded as "realized gains or losses on swaps."

Each Fund may enter into swap contracts that provide the opposite return of the underlying benchmark or security ("short" the index or security). The operations are similar to that of the swaps disclosed above except that the counterparty pays interest to the Fund on the notional amount outstanding and the dividends on the underlying securities reduce the return of the swap. However, in certain instances, market factors such as the interest rate environment and the demand to borrow the securities underlying the swap agreement can cause a scenario in which the Fund will pay the counterparty interest. These amounts are netted with any unrealized appreciation or depreciation to determine the value of the swap. The Funds will typically enter into equity swap agreements to obtain leverage in order to meet their objectives.

Accounting Standards Update No. 2013-01 "Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities" ("ASU 2013-01"), requires entities to disclose (i) gross and net information about both instruments and transactions eligible for offset in the financial statements, and (ii) instruments and transactions subject to an agreement similar to a master netting agreement. ASU 2013-01 is limited in scope to recognized derivative instruments accounted for under ASC 815 "Derivatives and Hedging", to the extent they are offset in the financial statements or subject to an enforceable master netting arrangement or similar agreement.

In order to better define its contractual rights and to secure rights that will help a Fund mitigate its counterparty risk, a Fund may enter into an International Swaps and Derivatives Association, Inc. Master Agreement ("ISDA Master Agreement") or similar agreement with its counterparties. An ISDA Master Agreement is a bilateral agreement between a Fund and a counterparty that governs OTC derivatives, including swap contracts, and typically contains, among other things, collateral posting terms, netting and rights of set-off provisions in the event of a default and/or termination event. Under an ISDA Master Agreement, a Fund may, under certain circumstances, offset with the counterparty certain derivative financial instruments' payables and receivables to create a single net payment. The provisions of the ISDA Master Agreement typically permit a single net payment in the event of a default (close-out netting) or similar event, including the bankruptcy or insolvency of the counterparty.

Collateral requirements generally differ by type of derivative. Collateral terms are contract-specific for OTC derivatives (e.g. swaps). Generally, for transactions traded under an ISDA Master Agreement, the collateral requirements are calculated by netting the marked-to-market amount for each transaction under such agreement and comparing that amount to the value of any collateral currently pledged by a Fund and the counterparty. Generally, the amount of collateral due from or to the counterparty must exceed a minimum transfer amount threshold before a transfer is required to be made. To the extent amounts due to a Fund from its derivative counterparties are not fully collateralized, contractually or otherwise, the Fund bears the risk of loss from counterparty non-performance.

For financial reporting purposes, the Funds elect to not offset assets and liabilities subject to an ISDA Master Agreement, if any, in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. Therefore, all qualifying transactions are presented on a gross basis in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. As of October 31, 2023, the impact of netting of assets and liabilities and the offsetting of collateral pledged or received based on contractual netting/set-off provisions in the ISDA Master Agreement are detailed in the following tables.

In the event of the counterparty's default, bankruptcy or any other event for which the counterparty cannot meet its obligations, a Fund bears the risk of loss equal to the amount of the daily appreciation owed to the Fund. This obligation represents the daily gain accrued to the Fund from the close of business day prior to this event to the day on which this event occurs and the counterparty can no longer meet its obligations. A Fund will enter into swap agreements only with large, well-capitalized and established financial institutions. The creditworthiness of each of the firms that is a party to a swap agreement is monitored by the Adviser. Shareholders may obtain swap counterparty financial statements at www.sec.gov. Swap contracts are subject to credit risk. Credit risk occurs when the financial condition of an issuer of a security or instrument may cause it to default or become unable to pay interest or principal due on the security. The counterparty to a swap contract might default on its obligations. In addition, the Funds have agreements with certain counterparties with which it trades swap contracts that contain credit risk-related contingent features that could be triggered subject to certain circumstances. Such circumstances include agreed upon net asset value and performance-based thresholds. The maximum exposure to the Funds in regard to potential counterparty default and credit-risk related contingent features at April 30, 2024 is detailed in the following tables. If such credit risk-related contingencies were triggered, the counterparties would have the option to terminate any positions open under the master netting agreement.

c) Futures Contracts – Each Fund may purchase and sell futures contracts. A Fund may use futures contracts to gain exposure to, or hedge against, changes in the values of commodities, equities, interest rates or foreign currencies. Upon entering into a contract, the Fund deposits and maintains as collateral such initial margin as required by the exchange on which the transaction is effected. Pursuant to the contract, the Fund agrees to receive from or pay to the broker an amount of cash equal to the daily fluctuation in value of the contract. Such receipts or payments are known as "variation margin" and are recorded by the Fund as unrealized gains and losses. When the contract is closed, the Fund records a realized gain or loss equal to the difference between the value of the contract at the time it was opened and the value at the time it was closed. As collateral for futures contracts, the Fund is required under the 1940 Act to maintain assets consisting of cash, cash equivalents or liquid securities. This collateral is required to be adjusted daily to reflect the market value of the purchase obligation for long futures contracts or the market value of the instrument underlying the contract, but not less than the market price at which the futures contract was established, for short futures contracts.

d) Risks of Futures Contracts, Options on Futures Contracts and Short Positions – The risks inherent in the use of options, futures contracts, options on futures contracts and short positions include 1) adverse changes in the fair value of such instruments; 2) imperfect correlation between the price of options and futures contracts and options thereon and movements in the price of the underlying securities, index or futures contracts; 3) the possible absence of a liquid secondary market for any particular instrument at any time; 4) the possible need to defer closing out certain positions to avoid adverse tax consequences; and 5) the possible non-performance by the counterparty under the terms of the contract. The Funds designate cash, cash equivalents and liquid securities as collateral for written options, futures contracts, options on futures contracts and short positions. The Funds were not invested in any type of options during the period ended April 30, 2024.

e) Risks of Investing in Foreign Securities – Investments in foreign securities involve greater risks than investing in domestic securities. As a result, the Funds' returns and net asset values may be affected to a large degree by fluctuations in currency exchange rates, political, diplomatic or economic conditions and regulatory requirements in other countries. The laws, accounting and financial reporting standards in foreign countries may require less disclosure than required in the U.S., and therefore there may be less public information available about foreign companies. Investments in foreign emerging markets present a greater risk than investing in foreign issuers in general. The risk of political or social upheaval is greater in emerging markets. In addition, there may be risks of an economy's dependence on revenues from particular commodities, currency transfer restrictions, a limited number of potential buyers for such securities and delays and disruption in securities settlement procedures.

f) Security Transactions – Investment transactions are recorded on the trade date. The Funds determine the gain or loss realized from the investment transactions by comparing the identified cost, which is the same basis used for U.S. Federal income tax purposes, with the net sales proceeds.

g) Securities Lending – The Funds may lend its investment securities to approved brokers, dealers and other financial institutions. The borrower pledges and maintains with the Fund collateral consisting of cash, an irrevocable letter of credit issued by an approved bank, or securities issued or guaranteed by the U.S. government. The collateral received by each Fund is required to have a value of at least 102% of the current value of the loaned securities. During the term of the loan, each Fund is entitled to all distributions made on or in respect of the loaned securities but does not receive interest income on securities received as collateral. Loans of securities are terminable at any time and the borrower, after notice, is required to return borrowed securities within the standard time period for settlement of securities transactions.

As of April 30, 2024, all securities on loan were collateralized by cash and/or U.S. government obligations. The cash received as collateral for securities on loan was invested in money market funds, whose maturities are overnight and continuous, and is disclosed in the Schedules of Investments. The securities on loan in each Fund are also disclosed in the Schedule of Investments. The total value of securities loaned and the value of the invested cash collateral are disclosed in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. Non-cash collateral consists of U.S. Treasury securities and is not disclosed on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities as its held by the lending agent on behalf of the Funds, and the Funds do not have the ability to sell, reinvest or pledge those securities. Income earned by the Funds from securities lending is disclosed in the Statements of Operations.

The risks of securities lending include the risk that the borrower may not provide additional collateral when required or may not return the securities when due. To mitigate these risks, the Funds are contractually indemnified with the securities lending agent. Furthermore, the Funds require the value of the securities loaned to be computed daily at the close of the market and additional collateral be furnished if required.

As of April 30, 2024, the market value of the securities loaned and the payable on collateral received for securities lending were as follows:

h) Federal Income Taxes – Each Fund intends to make the requisite distributions of income and capital gains to comply with the requirements of Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, necessary to qualify as a regulated investment company. Therefore, no provision for U.S. Federal income tax has been made by the Funds.

The Funds may be subject to a nondeductible 4% U.S. excise tax calculated as a percentage of certain undistributed amounts of net investment income and net capital gains. Certain Funds paid this excise tax during the period ended April 30, 2024, which is disclosed on the Statements of Operations.

i) Income and Expenses – Interest income, including amortization of premiums and discounts, is recognized on an accrual basis. Distributions are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Certain Funds paid this excise tax during the period ended April 30, 2024.

The Funds are charged for those expenses that are directly attributable to each series, such as advisory fees and registration costs. Expenses that are not directly attributable to a series are generally allocated among the Trust's series in proportion to their respective average daily net assets.

j) Distributions to Shareholders – Each Fund pays dividends from net investment income and distributes net realized capital gains, if any, at least annually. Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with U.S. Federal income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. Certain Funds also utilize earnings and profits distributed to shareholders on redemptions of shares as part of the dividends paid deduction. Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date.

k) Guarantees and Indemnifications – In the ordinary course of business, the Funds enter into contracts that contain a variety of indemnification provisions pursuant to which the Funds agree to indemnify third parties upon occurrence of specified events. The Funds' maximum exposure relating to these indemnification agreements is unknown. However, the Funds have not had prior claims or losses in connection with these provisions and believe the risk of loss is remote.

l) Use of Estimates – The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

DIREXION SEMI-ANNUAL REPORT
158


The difference between the book cost of investments and the tax cost of investments is primarily attributable to tax deferral of losses on wash sales.

In order to meet certain U.S. excise tax distribution requirements, the Funds are required to measure and distribute annually net capital gains realized during a twelve month period ending October 31 and net investment income earned during a twelve month period ending December 31. In connection with this, the Funds are permitted for tax purposes to defer into their next fiscal year qualified late year losses. Qualified late ordinary losses are generally losses incurred between January 1 and the end of their fiscal year, October 31, 2023.

At October 31, 2023, Direxion Daily Dow Jones Internet Bull 3X Shares deferred, on a tax basis, qualified late year losses of $169,875.

Under current law, the Funds may carry forward net capital losses indefinitely to use to offset capital gains realized in future years and their character is retained as either short-term and/or long-term.

At October 31, 2023, for U.S. Federal income tax purposes, the following Funds had capital loss carryforwards available to offset future capital gains through the year indicated:

DIREXION SEMI-ANNUAL REPORT
159


The Funds follow authoritative financial reporting rules regarding recognition and measurement of tax positions taken or expected to be taken on a tax return. The Funds have reviewed all open tax years and concluded that there is no effect to the Funds' financial positions or results of operations and no tax liability resulting from unrecognized tax benefits relating to uncertain income tax position taken or expected to be taken on a tax return. The Funds recognize interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense in the Statements of Operations. During this period, the Funds did not incur any interest or penalties. Open tax years are those years that are open for examination by the relevant income taxing authority. As of April 30, 2024, open U.S. Federal and state income tax years include the tax years ended October 31, 2021 through October 31, 2023. The Funds have no examination in progress. The Funds are also not aware of any tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax expense will significantly change in the next twelve months.

4.  CREATION AND REDEMPTION TRANSACTIONS AND TRANSACTION FEES

Each Fund issues and redeems shares on a continuous basis at NAV only in large blocks of shares called "Creation Units." A Creation Unit consists of 50,000 shares. Creation Units of the Bull Funds are issued and redeemed in cash and/or in-kind for securities included in the relevant underlying index. Creation Units of the Bear Funds are issued and redeemed for cash. Investors such as market makers, large investors and institutions who wish to deal in Creation Units directly with a Fund must have entered into an authorized participant agreement with the principal underwriter and the transfer agent, or purchase through a dealer that has entered into such an agreement. Transactions in shares for each Fund include both cash and in-kind transactions and are disclosed in detail in the Statements of Changes in Net Assets.

Transaction fees are imposed to cover the costs associated with the issuance and redemption of Creation Units. There is a fixed and a variable component to the total transaction fee. A fixed transaction fee is paid to the transfer agent and is applicable to each creation or redemption transaction, regardless of the number of Creation Units purchased or redeemed. In addition, a variable transaction fee equal to a percentage of the value of each Creation Unit purchased or redeemed is applicable to each creation or redemption transaction and is paid to the Fund. Not all Funds will have a transaction fee associated with capital share activity for the year. Transaction fees received by each Fund are presented in the Capital Share Transaction section of the Statements of Changes in Net Assets.

5.  INVESTMENT TRANSACTIONS

The table below presents each Fund's investment transactions during the period ended April 30, 2024. Purchases represent the aggregate purchases of investments excluding the cost of in-kind purchases, short-term investment purchases, swaps and futures contracts. Sales represent the aggregate sales of investments excluding proceeds from in-kind sales, short-term investments, swap and future contracts.

Purchases in-kind are the aggregate of all in-kind purchases and sales in-kind are the aggregate of all proceeds from in-kind sales. The transactions for each of these categories are as follows:

For further detail on each asset class, see each Fund's Schedule of Investments.

*  Futures contracts and total return swap contracts are valued at the unrealized appreciation/(depreciation).

The Funds also follow authoritative accounting standards, which require additional disclosure regarding fair value measurements. Specifically, these standards require reporting entities to disclose a) the input and valuation techniques used to measure fair value for both recurring and nonrecurring fair value measurements, for Level 2 or Level 3 positions, b) transfers between all levels on a gross basis (i.e. transfers out must be disclosed separately from transfers in) as well as the reason(s) for the transfers and c) purchases and sales on a gross basis in the Level 3 rollforward rather than as one net number. Additionally, reporting entities are required to disclose quantitative information about unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurements categorized within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.

There were no Level 3 securities held by the Funds or any transfers between levels during the period ended April 30, 2024.

8.  VALUATION OF DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS

The Funds follow authoritative standards of accounting for derivative instruments, which establish disclosure requirements for derivative instruments. These standards improve financial reporting for derivative instruments by requiring enhanced disclosures that enable investors to understand how and why a fund uses derivative instruments, how derivative instruments are accounted for and how derivative instruments affect a fund's financial position and results of operations.

9.  PRINCIPAL RISKS

Below are some of the principal risks of investing in the Funds. Please refer to the Funds' prospectus for a full discussion.

Counterparty Risk – A Fund will be subject to credit risk with respect to the amount it expects to receive from counterparties to financial instruments entered into by the Fund. The Funds' counterparties are generally required to post collateral to the Funds to the extent of the Funds' daily exposure to such counterparties. However, to the extent any such collateral is insufficient, the Funds will be exposed to counterparty risk as described in this paragraph. In addition, there may be a delay associated with realization by the Funds of the collateral posted by such counterparties in the event of counterparty default or bankruptcy. A Fund may be negatively impacted if a counterparty becomes bankrupt or otherwise fails to perform its obligations due to financial difficulties. A Fund may experience significant delays in obtaining any recovery in a bankruptcy or other reorganization proceeding, and a Fund may obtain only limited recovery or may obtain no recovery in such circumstances.

Sector Concentration Risk – The risk of concentrating investments in a limited number of issuers in a particular industry is that a Fund will be more susceptible to the risks associated with that industry than a Fund that does not concentrate its investments.

Daily Index Correlation/Tracking Risk – A number of factors may affect a Fund's ability to achieve a high degree of correlation with its benchmark, and there can be no guarantee that a Fund will achieve a high degree of correlation. A failure to achieve a high degree of correlation may prevent a Fund from achieving its investment objective. A number of factors may adversely affect a Fund's correlation with its benchmark, including fees, expenses, transaction costs, costs associated with the use of leveraged investment techniques, income items, accounting standards, and disruptions or illiquidity in the markets for the securities or financial instruments in which the Fund invests. A Fund may not have investment exposure to all securities in its underlying benchmark index, or its weighting of investment exposure to such stocks or industries may be different from that of the index. In addition, a Fund may invest in securities or financial instruments not included in the index underlying its benchmark. A Fund may be subject to large movements of assets into and out of the Fund, potentially resulting in the Fund being over- or under-exposed to its benchmark. Activities surrounding annual index reconstitutions and other index rebalancing or reconstitution events may hinder the Funds' ability to meet their daily investment objective on that day. Each Fund seeks to rebalance its portfolio daily to keep leverage consistent with its daily investment objective.

Certain Funds are "leveraged" funds in the sense that they have investment objectives to match a multiple of the performance of an index on a given day. These Funds are subject to all the correlation risks described above. In addition, there is a special form of correlation risk that derives from these Funds' use of leverage, which is that for periods greater than one day, the use of leverage tends to cause the performance of a Fund to be either greater than or less than the index performance times the stated multiple in the fund objective, before accounting for fees and fund expenses. In general, given a particular index return, increased volatility of the index will cause a decrease in the performance relative to the index performance times the stated fund multiple.

Derivatives Risk – The Fund's investments in derivatives may pose risks in addition to, and greater than, those associated with directly investing in securities or other investments, including risk related to the market, leverage, imperfect daily correlations with underlying investments or the Fund's other portfolio holdings, higher price volatility, lack of availability, counterparty risk, liquidity, valuation and legal restrictions.

DIREXION SEMI-ANNUAL REPORT
171


In addition, the Fund's investments in derivatives are subject to the following risks:

•  Swap Agreements. Swap agreements are entered into primarily with major global financial institutions for a specified period which may range from one day to more than one year. In a standard swap transaction, two parties agree to exchange the return (or differentials in rates of return) earned or realized on particular predetermined reference assets or underlying securities or instruments. The gross return to be exchanged or swapped between the parties is calculated based on a notional amount or the return on or change in value of a particular dollar amount invested in a basket of securities representing a particular index or an ETF that seeks to track an index. Swaps are subject to counterparty, valuation and leveraging risks.

•  Futures Contracts. Futures contracts are typically exchange-traded contracts that call for the future delivery of an asset at a certain price and date, or cash settlement of the terms of the contract. There may be an imperfect correlation between the changes in market value of the securities held by the Fund and the prices of futures contracts. Futures contracts are subject to liquidity risks; there may not be a liquid secondary market for the futures contracts and the Fund may not be able to enter into a closing transaction. Exchanges may also limit the number of positions that can be held or controlled by the Fund or the Adviser, thus limiting the ability of the Fund to implement its leveraged investment strategy. Futures markets are highly volatile and the use of futures may increase the Fund's volatility. Futures contracts are also subject to leverage risk.

Foreign Securities Risk – Investments in foreign securities directly or indirectly through investments in exchange traded funds which track foreign securities involve greater risks than investing in domestic securities. As a result, the Funds' returns and net asset values may be affected to a large degree by fluctuations in currency exchange rates, political, diplomatic or economic conditions and regulatory requirements in other countries. The laws, accounting and financial reporting standards in foreign countries may require less disclosure than required in the U.S., and therefore there may be less public information available about foreign companies. Investments in foreign emerging markets present a greater risk than investing in foreign issuers in general. The risk of political or social upheaval is greater in emerging markets. In addition, there may be risks of an economy's dependence on revenues from particular commodities, currency transfer restrictions, a limited number of potential buyers for such securities and delays and disruption in securities settlement procedures.

Leverage Risk – Leverage offers a means of magnifying market movements into larger changes in an investment's value and provides greater investment exposure than an unleveraged investment. Swap and future agreements may be used to create leverage. Each Fund employs leveraged investment techniques to achieve its investment objective.

Liquidity Risk – In certain circumstances, such as the disruption of the orderly markets for the securities or financial instruments in which a Fund invests, a Fund might not be able to dispose of certain holdings quickly or at prices that represent fair market value in the judgment of the Adviser. Additionally, certain counterparties may have the ability to demand repayment at any time, thereby exposing the Fund to the risk that it may be required to liquidate investments at an inopportune time. This may prevent a Fund from limiting losses, realizing gains or from achieving a high correlation or inverse correlation with its underlying index.

10.  ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
