Structural notes on how this fund behaves. Read our guide on the 6 warning signs.
Your return drifts the longer you hold
Leverage amplifies the index's daily move, by 2x or 3x. The fund resets every day, so over weeks and months your real return drifts from that multiple. It can run ahead in a smooth climb and bleed in a choppy one. Hold one for months and you own a different bet than the label suggests.
