November 12, 2007 How to Profit from a Crash in China

The good news for investors is that ProShares has launched a new ETF designed to profit off China’s misery. The UltraShort FTSE/Xinhua China 25 ProShare (FXP) moves twice in the opposite direction of the Chinese stock market. The underlying index is the FTSE/Xinhua China 25 Index (FXI). Check out how that index has done:
