I have been searching for a Bear Market Mutual Fund. One of interest is the S&P/TSX 60 market inverse fund sold by Horizons BetaPro Funds. It appears to ba available as a normal mutual fund with a $5,000 minimum purchase and also as an Exchange Traded Fund with no minimum limit. The graph is for the ETF version.
It is a relatively new fund that appears to be equivalent to shorting the entire index. It moves opposite to the index. It is a means of offsetting the Bear Market. It has two times leverage so a little goes a long way. $5,000 in this fund will offset $10,000 of long positions in stocks or mutual funds exposed to a down-trending market.
Caution...the leverage works both ways. Call the direction wrong and you lose twice as much.

Aw, try nοt to mind. It's the old saying...if it cannot be done, better to do it yourself.
