Investors saw firsthand how volatile the markets can be when inflation fears take hold of the major indexes. One exchange traded fund (ETF) places its focus on beating indexes when the threat of rising rates is on the horizon.

The ProShares Equities for Rising Rates ETF (EQRR) seeks investment results that track the performance of the Nasdaq U.S. Large Cap Equities for Rising Rates Index. The goal of the fund is to provide relative outperformance, as compared to traditional U.S. large-cap indexes, such as the S&P 500, during periods of rising U.S. Treasury interest rates.

The fund targets sectors that exhibit the most correlation to the yields from the benchmark 10-year Treasury note. Furthermore, within those sectors, it focuses on holdings that perform best when rates rise.

For example, financials can perform well when rates rise by earning more revenue on lending products. That said, as of March 15, EQRR allocates 30% of its assets towards financials.
