C000010382 Investment Objective and Strategy
Electronics Fund describes its objective and strategy as follows, from its latest prospectus filed with the SEC by Rydex Variable Trust.
Investment objective
The Electronics Fund (the Fund) seeks to provide capital appreciation by investing in companies that are involved in the electronics sector, including semiconductor manufacturers and distributors, and makers and vendors of other electronic components and devices (Electronics Companies).
Principal investment strategy
Under normal circumstances, the Fund invests substantially all (at least 80%) of its net assets in equity securities of Electronics Companies that are traded in the United States and in derivatives, which primarily consist of futures contracts and options on securities, futures contracts, and stock indices. The Advisor employs a proprietary quantitative and qualitative methodology to identify Electronics Companies in which to invest. The methodology utilizes screens based on price, liquidity, and tradability. The securities are then weighted using a proprietary modified capitalization weighting methodology. The portfolio may be further adjusted to comply with regulatory investment limitations or as determined appropriate by the Advisor. The Fund may invest to a significant extent in the securities of Electronics Companies that have small to mid-sized capitalizations.
Electronics Companies include companies involved in the manufacture and development of semiconductors, connectors, printed circuit boards and other components; equipment vendors to electronic component manufacturers; electronic component distributors; and electronic instruments and electronic systems vendors. Electronics Companies also include companies involved in all aspects of the electronics business and in new technologies or specialty areas and may include companies that are significantly involved in multiple sectors, including the electronics sector. The Fund also may purchase American Depositary Receipts (ADRs) to gain exposure to foreign Electronics Companies and U.S. government securities. Investments in derivative instruments, such as futures and options, have the economic effect of creating financial leverage in the Funds portfolio because such investments may give rise to losses that exceed the amount the Fund has invested in those instruments.
Financial leverage will magnify, sometimes significantly, the Funds exposure to any increase or decrease in prices associated with a particular reference asset resulting in increased volatility in the value of the Funds portfolio. The value of the Funds portfolio is likely to experience greater volatility over short-term periods. While such financial leverage has the potential to produce greater gains, it also may result in greater losses, which in some cases may cause the Fund to liquidate other portfolio investments at a loss to comply with limits on leverage imposed by the Investment Company Act of 1940, satisfy margin or collateral requirements, or meet redemption requests. In an effort to ensure that the Fund is fully invested on a day-to-day basis, the Fund may conduct any necessary trading activity at or just prior to the close of the U.S.
financial markets. As of March 31, 2026, the Fund has significant exposure to the Information Technology Sector, as that sector is defined by the Global Industry Classification Standard, a widely recognized industry classification methodology developed by MSCI, Inc. and Standard & Poor's Financial Services LLC. Also, as of March 31, 2026, the Fund's investments are concentrated (i.e., more than 25% of its assets) in securities issued by companies in the Semiconductors & Semiconductor Equipment Industry, a separate industry within the Information Technology Sector. The Fund is non-diversified and, therefore, may invest a greater percentage of its assets in a particular issuer in comparison to a diversified fund.
