ProShares UltraShort FTSE China 50 Price & Performance (FXP)

FXP, the ProShares UltraShort FTSE China 50 ETF, gained 0.14% to $14.14 in the latest session, reflecting increased short interest as major Chinese banks like Agricultural Bank of China and Bank of China posted notable gains. This comes amid ongoing volatility in China’s equity markets, highlighting persistent investor caution.12

ProShares UltraShort FTSE China 50 ETF has confirmed a quarterly dividend payout of $0.50 per share, payable on April 1, 2025. The ex-dividend and record dates were March 26, 2025. This marks a continued commitment to distributions despite the ETF’s recent negative performance trend.34

Despite a slight uptick to $14.14, FXP has seen a sharp decline of over 30% in the past three months and more than 65% over the past year. The fund’s ongoing losses mirror the challenging environment for inverse China equity strategies, even as short-term traders pursue tactical opportunities.54
