Warnings, cautions & notes: 

  • Leveraged funds are high risk financial products
  • Most leveraged funds reset daily and do not necessarily track their benchmark index. 
  • Most leveraged funds are designed for trading and not long-term investing
  • Most leveraged funds lose money long term or fail to capture returns in excess of a non-leveraged financial product. Out of 49 leveraged equity ETFs back tested, only 16 successfully increased in value more than a non-leveraged S&P 500 fund
  • Most leveraged funds have high expense ratios, averaging about 0.95%
