CRCA in plain words
Three months to Sep 11, 2026: CRCA returned +4.9% where its own daily promise gave +10.8%, 5.9 points short. Read the multiple against the whole window instead and +2 times CRCL's 16.4% implies +32.8%, which makes CRCA look 27.8 points short. 21.9 of that is daily compounding, which happens to any +2 times fund over the same path, and the rest is the fund. CRCA aims to return +2 times CRCL'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. CRCL moved at 89% 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.
CRCD in plain words
Three months to Sep 11, 2026: CRCD returned −60.0% where its own daily promise gave −59.5%, 0.5 points short. Read the multiple against the whole window instead and −2 times CRCL's 16.4% implies −32.8%, which makes CRCD look 27.2 points short. 26.8 of that is daily compounding, which happens to any −2 times fund over the same path, and the rest is the fund. CRCD aims to return -2 times CRCL'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, CRCA or CRCD?
- Over the window to Sep 11, 2026, CRCA finished 27.8 points from what its multiple implies and CRCD finished 27.2 points from its own, so CRCD came closer. Neither figure predicts the next window: it depends on how much the underlying moves about.
- Are CRCA and CRCD levered on the same thing?
- Yes. Both are levered on CRCL, CRCA at +2 times and CRCD at -2 times the daily move.
- Which one decays faster, CRCA or CRCD?
- Decay follows how much the underlying moves about. Over this window CRCA’s moved at 89% annualized and CRCD’s at 89%, so CRCA has the rougher ride and, at the same multiple, loses more to compounding.
- Can I hold CRCA or CRCD 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.
