Corrections and Clarifications
Returns for the several ProFunds mutual funds were misreported on the Figures of the Week pages in the Oct. 29, Nov. 5, and Nov. 12 issues. The correct figures for the Nov. 12 issue are as follows: ProFunds Ultra OTC, 30.12%, and ProFunds UltraBull, 0.6%, for four-week total returns. The 52-week return for ProFunds UltraBull was -51.2%. The figures for mutual-fund leaders and laggards for the three issues mentioned have been corrected in the archives on BusinessWeek Online.
