Leveraged ETF
A fund that amplifies an index’s daily move with derivatives.
Also known as: Leveraged ETFs
In detail
A leveraged ETF uses derivatives to multiply an index’s daily return, for example 2x or 3x. Daily resetting makes longer-term returns drift from the stated multiple, so these are short-term trading tools.
