ETHT in plain words
Three months to Sep 11, 2026: ETHT returned +108.6% where its own daily promise gave +118.5%, 9.9 points short. Read the multiple against the whole window instead and +2 times ETHA's 52.4% implies +104.9%, which makes ETHT look 3.7 points over. 13.6 of that is daily compounding, which happens to any +2 times fund over the same path, and the rest is the fund. ETHT aims to return +2 times ETHA'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. ETHA moved at 51% 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.
ETHU in plain words
Three months to Sep 11, 2026: ETHU returned +113.5% where its own daily promise gave +118.5%, 4.9 points short. Read the multiple against the whole window instead and +2 times ETHA's 52.4% implies +104.9%, which makes ETHU look 8.7 points over. ETHU aims to return +2 times ETHA's move each day, then resets.
Questions people ask
- Which came closer to its stated multiple, ETHT or ETHU?
- Over the window to Sep 11, 2026, ETHT finished 3.7 points from what its multiple implies and ETHU finished 8.7 points from its own, so ETHT came closer. Neither figure predicts the next window: it depends on how much the underlying moves about.
- Are ETHT and ETHU levered on the same thing?
- Yes. Both are levered on ether, ETHT at +2 times and ETHU at +2 times the daily move.
- Which one decays faster, ETHT or ETHU?
- Decay follows how much the underlying moves about. Over this window ETHT’s moved at 51% annualized and ETHU’s at 51%, so ETHT has the rougher ride and, at the same multiple, loses more to compounding.
- Can I hold ETHT or ETHU 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, ETHT or ETHU?
- ETHT charges 0.94% a year and ETHU charges 2.97%, so ETHT is cheaper. Fees come from each fund's prospectus.
