What is MSGR?

The Direxion mRNA ETF (MSGR) provides exposure to companies that are leading the development and application of messenger RNA ( mRNA ) technology. The BITA Messenger RNA Technology Index (BMRNAIN) provides exposure to the performance of companies, publicly listed in the United States, Canada and Europe, that are leading the development and application of messenger RNA ( mRNA ) technology. mRNA is a single stranded ribonucleic acid ( RNA ) molecule that is complementary to one of the DNA strands of a gene. mRNA plays a vital role in protein synthesis in the human body, and mRNA technologies leverage this vital role to enable targeted cells to produce proteins that enable the body to fight or prevent a given disease. As an example, mRNA technology is the basis for certain COVID 19 vaccines. Eligible companies must meet certain conditions as specified by the Index Provider as well as market capitalization and liquidity requirements. Index constituents are weighted based on a modified free float market capitalization and reconstituted and rebalanced quarterly.
