AXTC in plain words

One month to Sep 11, 2026: AXTC returned −40.9% where its own daily promise gave −40.3%, 0.6 points short. Read the multiple against the whole window instead and +2 times AXTI's −17.5% implies −34.9%, which makes AXTC look 5.9 points short. 5.4 of that is daily compounding, which happens to any +2 times fund over the same path, and the rest is the fund. AXTC aims to return +2 times AXTI's move each day, then resets. Over one day it does that. Over longer, the daily results compound, so the total is not +2 times the period's move: in a market that falls and comes back it is reliably less, and in a steady run it can be more. AXTI moved at 123% annualized over that window. That is what decides how far the two figures separate: the same fund on a calm underlying and a violent one is a different product.

AXTU in plain words

Three months to Sep 11, 2026: AXTU returned −78.7% where its own daily promise gave −77.0%, 1.7 points short. Read the multiple against the whole window instead and +2 times AXTI's −33.4% implies −66.7%, which makes AXTU look 12.0 points short. 10.3 of that is daily compounding, which happens to any +2 times fund over the same path, and the rest is the fund. AXTU aims to return +2 times AXTI's move each day, then resets. AXTI moved at 165% annualized over that window.

Questions people ask

Which came closer to its stated multiple, AXTC or AXTU?
Over the window to Sep 11, 2026, AXTC finished 5.9 points from what its multiple implies and AXTU finished 12.0 points from its own, so AXTC came closer. Neither figure predicts the next window: it depends on how much the underlying moves about.
Are AXTC and AXTU levered on the same thing?
Yes. Both are levered on AXTI, AXTC at +2 times and AXTU at +2 times the daily move.
Which one decays faster, AXTC or AXTU?
Decay follows how much the underlying moves about. Over this window AXTC’s moved at 123% annualized and AXTU’s at 165%, so AXTU has the rougher ride and, at the same multiple, loses more to compounding.
Can I hold AXTC or AXTU for a year?
Both reset every day, so the multiple in the name applies to a single day and the daily results compound. Over a year the total is not the multiple times the year’s move, and in a market that falls and comes back it is reliably less. ETFIQ makes no recommendation either way.
Which is cheaper, AXTC or AXTU?
AXTC charges 0.45% a year and AXTU charges 1.50%, so AXTC is cheaper. Fees come from each fund's prospectus.
