Supplement dated April 29, 2022 to the
Summary Prospectuses, Prospectuses, and Statements of Additional Information (“SAI”)
dated February 28, 2022, as last supplemented
The Board of Trustees of the Direxion Shares ETF Trust (“Trust”)
has approved, based on the recommendation of Rafferty Asset Management, LLC, the investment adviser to the Direxion Daily Energy Bear 2X Shares, Direxion Daily CSI China
Internet Index Bull 2X Shares, and the Direxion Daily FTSE China Bull 3X Shares (each, a “Fund” and collectively, the “Funds”), reverse splits of the issued and outstanding shares of the Funds.
After the close of the markets on May 27, 2022 (the “Record Date”), each Fund will affect reverse splits of its issued and outstanding shares as follows:
|
|
Approximate decrease
in total number of
outstanding shares |
Direxion Daily Energy Bear 2X Shares |
|
|
Direxion Daily CSI China Internet Index Bull 2X Shares |
|
|
Direxion Daily FTSE China Bull 3X Shares |
|
|
Effective May 31, 2022, each Fund’s CUSIP will change as noted in the table below:
|
|
|
Direxion Daily Energy Bear 2X Shares |
|
|
Direxion Daily CSI China Internet Index Bull 2X Shares |
|
|
Direxion Daily FTSE China Bull 3X Shares |
|
|
As a result of these reverse splits, every ten or twenty shares of a Fund will
be exchanged for one share as indicated in the table above. Accordingly, the total number of the issued and outstanding shares for a Fund will decrease by the approximate
percentage indicated above. In addition, the per share net asset value (“NAV”) and next day’s opening market price will be approximately ten- or twenty-times higher for the Funds. Shares of the Funds will begin trading on the NYSE Arca, Inc. (the “NYSE Arca”) on a split-adjusted basis on May 31, 2022.
The next day’s opening market value of the Funds’ issued and outstanding shares, and thus a shareholder’s investment value, will not be affected by the reverse splits. The tables below illustrate the effect of a hypothetical one-for-ten or one-for-twenty reverse split anticipated for the Funds:
1-for-10 Reverse Split
1-for-20 Reverse Split
The Trust’s transfer agent will notify the Depository Trust Company
(“DTC”) of the reverse split and instruct DTC to adjust each shareholder’s investment(s) accordingly. DTC is the registered owner of the Funds’ shares
and maintains a record of each Fund’s record owners.
