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 www.direxioninvestments.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 or summary prospectus. Index performance does not include any fees or expenses, are
unmanaged and cannot be invested in directly.

Disclosures
Shares of Direxion Shares are bought and sold at the market
price (not NAV) and are not individually redeemed from the
Fund. Brokerage commissions will reduce returns. Market Price
returns are based upon the midpoint of the bid/ask spread at
4:00 pm EST (when NAV is normally determined) and do not
represent the returns you would receive if you traded shares at
other times. Fund returns assume that dividends and capital
gains distributions have been reinvested in the Fund at NAV.
Some performance results reflect expense subsidies and waivers
in effect during certain periods shown. Absent these waivers,
results would have been less favorable.
An investor should consider the investment objectives, risks,
charges, and expenses of Direxion Shares carefully before
investing. The prospectus and summary prospectus contain
this and other information about Direxion Shares. Click here to
obtain a prospectus and summary prospectus or visit our website
at www.direxioninvestments.com. The prospectus and summary
prospectus should be read carefully before investing.
Investing in each Fund may be more volatile than investing in a broadly
diversified fund. The use of leverage by each Fund increases the risk
to the Fund. The Funds are not suitable for all investors and should be
utilized only by sophisticated investors who understand leverage risk,
consequences of seeking daily leveraged investment results and intend
to actively monitor and manage their investment. The Funds are not
designed to track their underlying index over a longer period of time.
Risks:
An investment in each Fund involves risk, including the possible loss
of principal. Each Fund is non-diversified and includes risks associated
with the Funds' concentrating their investments in a particular industry,
sector, or geographic region which can result in increased 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. Each Fund does not attempt to, and should not be
expected to, provide returns which are a multiple of the return of their
underlying index for periods other than a single day. Risks of each Fund
include Daily Index Correlation Risk, Leverage Risk, Compounding and
Market Volatility Risk and risks specific to the Mining Industry, such as
Emerging Markets Risk, Foreign Securities Risk, Gold Related Companies
Risk and Mining and Metal Industry Risk, and for the Direxion Daily
Gold Miners Bear 3X Shares risks related to shorting. Please see the
Summary and full Prospectuses for a more complete description of
these and other risks of each Fund.
