Our take

Structural notes on how this fund behaves. Read our guide on the 6 warning signs.

Leveraged single stock
Critical

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.
