Index Snapshot:

The Market Vectors Russia ETF (Ticker: RSX) seeks investment results that correspond generally to the performance, before fees and expenses, of the DAXglobal Russia+ Index. The index is modified capitalization weighted designed to track the movements of certain publicly traded companies that are domiciled in Russia and trade in Russia and on leading global exchanges. Russia's major industries include oil and gas exploration and production, telecommunication, steel production, mining and electricity generation. Only companies with market capitalization greater than $150 million that have adequate daily average trading volume are included. The index is weighted based on the market capitalization of each of the component stocks with the following restrictions; the weight of any single component stock may not account for more than 25% of the total value of the index; the aggregate weight of component stocks which individually represent more than 5.0% of total index value may not account for more than 40% of the total index value. Index constituents are reviewed quarterly and reweighed if needed.
