For all you big money playas.

Supplement dated June 26, 2009

The Board of Trustees of Direxion Shares ETF Trust has approved reverse splits of the issued and outstanding shares of both the Direxion Daily Financial Bull 3X Shares (FAS)(“Financial Bull Fund”) and Direxion Daily Financial Bear 3X Shares (FAZ) (“Financial Bear Fund”).

After the close of the markets on July 8, 2009 (the “Record Date”), the Financial Bull Fund will effect a one for five reverse split of its issued and outstanding shares and the Financial Bear Fund will effect a one for ten reverse split of its issued and outstanding shares. As a result of these reverse splits, every five shares of the Financial Bull Fund will be exchanged for one share and every ten shares of the Financial Bear Fund will be exchanged for one share.

Accordingly, the number of the Financial Bull Fund and Financial Bear Fund’s issued and outstanding shares will decrease by approximately 80% and 90%, respectively. In addition, the per share net asset value (“NAV”) and next day’s opening market price of each the Financial Bull Fund and the Financial Bear Fund will be approximately five-times higher and ten-times higher, respectively. Shareholders of record on the Record Date will participate in the reverse splits. Shares of the Financial Bull and Financial Bear Funds will begin trading on NYSE Arca, Inc. (“NYSE Arca”) on a split-adjusted basis on Thursday, July 9, 2009 (the “Effective Date”).

The next day’s opening market value of the Financial Bull and Financial Bear Funds’ issued and outstanding shares, and thus a shareholder’s investment value, will not be affected by the reverse splits.
