BEX in plain words
Three months to Sep 11, 2026: BEX returned −22.9% where its own daily promise gave −20.7%, 2.1 points short. Read the multiple against the whole window instead and +2 times BE's 6.0% implies +11.9%, which makes BEX look 34.8 points short. 32.7 of that is daily compounding, which happens to any +2 times fund over the same path, and the rest is the fund. BEX aims to return +2 times BE'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. BE moved at 119% 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.
BEZ in plain words
Three months to Sep 11, 2026: BEZ returned −71.2% where its own daily promise gave −71.5%, 0.3 points over. Read the multiple against the whole window instead and −2 times BE's 6.0% implies −11.9%, which makes BEZ look 59.2 points short. 59.6 of that is daily compounding, which happens to any −2 times fund over the same path, and the rest is the fund. BEZ aims to return -2 times BE's move each day, then resets. 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.
Questions people ask
- Which came closer to its stated multiple, BEX or BEZ?
- Over the window to Sep 11, 2026, BEX finished 34.8 points from what its multiple implies and BEZ finished 59.2 points from its own, so BEX came closer. Neither figure predicts the next window: it depends on how much the underlying moves about.
- Are BEX and BEZ levered on the same thing?
- Yes. Both are levered on BE, BEX at +2 times and BEZ at -2 times the daily move.
- Which one decays faster, BEX or BEZ?
- Decay follows how much the underlying moves about. Over this window BEX’s moved at 119% annualized and BEZ’s at 119%, so BEX has the rougher ride and, at the same multiple, loses more to compounding.
- Can I hold BEX or BEZ 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, BEX or BEZ?
- BEX charges 1.30% a year and BEZ charges 1.49%, so BEX is cheaper. Fees come from each fund's prospectus.
