Structural notes on how this fund behaves. Read our guide on the 6 warning signs.
Most of these lose money
These funds amplify one stock's daily move, then reset every day. More than half of them have lost money outright, and the daily reset plus financing costs drag roughly 9.5% a year off the return. The longer you hold, the more that compounding works against you.
You can be right and still lose
This fund returns the opposite of its benchmark's daily move, then resets. Hold it longer and the daily compounding takes over: the market can move your way over a week and you still finish down. It works as a one-day hedge and nothing beyond that.
